Dead to Sin
So in Romans 5:20, we're told that where sin increases, so does grace. And I think a lot of people look at that verse and see it as a great opportunity. It would be very easy to take this verse out of…

1 Cor 10:13
This has always been one of my favourite characterisitics of God - - He doesn't ever give us more than we can handle. This is important to remember about temptation, because it gives me a sense of empowerment…

God's Temple
This is HUGE. We are God's temple. Not only when we're in 'holy buildings' like churches. Not just on Sundays. WE are God's temples, all the time. So our bodies, our minds, our mouths always need to be…

On God's Power
This is such an example of drawing on God's strength, leaning on His power rather than our own. God truly does use people in their weakness to do incredible things - Paul is the embodiment of that.

Some Things Never Change
I think what strikes me about these verses is that the mentalities expressed here are so often seen today as well. So many Christians today base their relationship with God (or lack thereof) on tangible…

Matthew 26:39
This floors me. In one short little prayer, I both see myself and the person that I should be. The first part I think we can all relate to. I know that i've said those exact words before - God, 'if it…

Galatians 2:20
In a lot of ways, I look at Galatians as a kind of essay that Paul has written, in order to express why we can find justification in Jesus and not through expectations (or the law) of men. Earlier on,…

Galatians 1
So this book fascinates me right from the get-go. First, Paul switches things up by outright saying how astonished he is by the way these people have been living. And now he's telling them his life story…

Hmm
So as I was beginning to read Galatians, this verse really caught me off guard. I've gotten so used to reading Paul's letters where he starts like this 'I am so thankful for you because...' or 'I am so…
