The Power of Focus
Word of the Day: Romance
Is romance in the Bible?
Ruth 3:8
In the middle of the night something startled the man; he turned—and there was a woman lying at his feet!
The Big Idea: Leaving romance to chance, or hoping it will fit into a busy schedule, creates a very up and down romantic life—but mostly down. Jesus offers us an elegant solution. Commit to a few simple promises and be faithful to those promises regardless of what happens in life.
Let Jesus be your Coach
Matthew 11:28,29
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me…”
Let Jesus be your Confidant
Hebrews 12:1,2
And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith.
