Sweet Success
How do we measure success? Success is defined in many different ways and largely depends on the circumstances in which you find yourself. I often described success when teaching by seeing my students increase their knowledge. My husband considers a service call a success if he has fixed the customer's problem and doesn't get called back for the same issue. A salesperson may determine they are successful when they can meet their quota, and a lawyer, if they win a case. But what about as a Christian? How do we...how should we measure success?

Beyond Forgiveness
Have you believed that you were beyond forgiveness? I’m here to tell you that there is really no such thing in God’s eyes. God forgives. Jeremiah tells us in Lamentations 3:31-33, “For no one is cast off by the Lord forever. Though He brings grief, he will show compassion, so great is his unfailing love. For he does not willingly bring affliction or grief to anyone.” God always forgives, but there is a catch.

God is Love
God is love (1 John 4:8,16). He loves us because of who He is, not for anything we do or say. God’s love is much greater than the love we can offer, even greater than the love a devoted parent offers to their child.
