Paraclete's Promise: The Fantastic Fantasies Of Timothy
Ennis Smith
Tim wants to sit before the television and immerse in the world of video games. When Mom and Dad discourage the idea, he tromps down the basement steps to find his imagination secretly awaiting his arrival, in the form of a box. A few toys and supplies are gathered, and stocked inside the box in preparation for a great adventure. Unfortunately, before his imagination can explode into life, he falls asleep...or does he?

| | | | | | A World Full of God’s Glory – Cheryl Weber
I recently heard a young woman lament that the world is a dark place and she would not want to bring children into it. She apparently viewed life through the lens of fear and bitterness. Such emotions can even distort our perceptions of the good around us.
God wants us to look at the world through a different lens. In Isaiah 6:3, angelic beings cried out, “‘Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts. The whole earth is full of his glory’” (NASB). Those awestruck worshippers understood that despite the damage sinful mankind has inflicted upon themselves, each other, and the natural world, the goodness and beauty of the Lord is still present and active. With God’s help, we can have that same perspective. Through eyes of joy, hope, and faith, we can see his continuous work on our behalf as he heals, reconciles, provides, and restores, even in the darkest of circumstances.
When Jesus died on a Roman cross, his disciples must have concluded all was lost. Yet, through that seemingly tragic event, our heavenly Father defeated evil and death. He made the way for each of us to live eternally, to find peace with him and with each other, and experience his transforming love and power. When we forsake our sins and yield our lives to him, he comes to live in us, to free us to work with him in bringing his good and loving will to pass---to increase the display of his glory in this world.
Lord, help us see the good things you are doing, to focus on the joy and beauty around us even in the midst of the havoc our disobedience has caused.

| | | FaithWriters are Fulfilling The Great Commission Together!
As we help you become the writer God has called you to be, you help us spread the gospel in over 230 countries online. Here is a quote from a reader who accepted Jesus on FaithWriters. His life will never be the same because one writer “put pen to paper” and shared it.
‘I literally was transformed and totally healed in an instant upon trusting in Jesus as my lord and savior. The love, joy, light, and peace I feel is way more than words or thoughts can express. This new life of being a true Christian, who is saved, Spirit-filled, born-again, fully and truly converted by the living holy gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, is going to carry my being further than anyone could ever imagine. It will be the most blessed, rewarding, and holy life in the Lord, which I have embarked upon now.’” Roger P. |
