Isolation and Temptation or Nearness in Testing

Whoever isolates himself seeks his own desire; he breaks out against all sound judgment.

A fool takes no pleasure in understanding but only in expressing his opinion.

A Value Greater Than These

If this is how God clothes the grass in the field — which is here today and gone tomorrow, thrown in an oven — won’t he much more clothe you? What little trust you have! So don’t be anxious, asking, ‘What will we eat?’ ‘What will we drink?’ or ‘How will we be clothed?’ For it is the pagans who set their hearts on all these things. Your heavenly Father knows you need them all. But seek first his Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

Matthew 6:30-33

Change Your Thinking Change Your Living

Change your hearts! And show by the way you live that you have changed. I know what you are thinking. You want to say, ‘But Abraham is our father!’ That means nothing. I tell you, God could make children for Abraham from these rocks.

New Strength

But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength.

They will walk and not faint.
