The deepest miracle is not spectacle. It’s sight.
Jesus makes us see —
through the gifts, through the goods, through the “sour wine” —
until we finally see him.

Are you afraid of being unimpressed by the love of God?

Fact: You will have tribulation in this world.
Exhortation: Take heart.
Bigger fact: Jesus has overcome the world.

Jesus has conquered the world and everything in it that could ever stand against us.

’Tis midnight, and for others’ guilt
the Man of Sorrows weeps in blood
yet he who hath in anguish knelt
is not forsaken by his God.

Peter fell hard. Judas fell finally.
What made the difference?
Not Peter’s resolve — but Jesus’s prayer. When a death-defying Savior prays that your faith would not fail, it does not fail.

John, more than the other Gospels, seems to feature the weaknesses of the disciples. There’s a message in it.
English
You don’t lose Jesus because you’re weak.
The disciples were confused, overconfident, and about to scatter… and Jesus still said: “I want you to have peace.”
He doesn’t give up on his people. Ever.
English
Christian, Jesus says the Father himself loves you.

I can taste all of the pleasures
Write a melody inclined
Fill my house with golden treasures
All I'm filling up is time
'Til the waking of the sadness
Comes a knocking at my door
Saying you ain't crossed the ocean
Son, you ain't even seen the shore
– William Rinehart

The world is overrun with foolishness and consumed by hate.
Father, give us wisdom and love — not of this world, but in it, according to your will.
To lies, we speak your truth.
To rage, we extend your mercy: whoever turns from sin and trusts in Christ will be saved.

Jesus: “In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33)

We've been informed by a churchgoer at Cities Church in St. Paul (that was previously stormed by agitators) that the church and parishioners are still being harassed by 50501 anti-ICE agitators every Sunday during services at 8:30 and 10:30.

People say there are “two Americas” in the USA. I’m glad mine still loves baseball.

Your love is the flame
And I wanna burn for your name”

Jesus himself shows us what abiding looks like. John 15:10.
He lived with his heart continually turned toward the Father —
seeking his will, receiving his words, joining his work.
In a word: obedience.
English
That was emotional. Wow.

Major League Baseball is aired in the morning for Japan. So technically they eat breakfast with it being on television. Here’s their #openingday commercial. No hyperbole, when I say this, it might be greater than any US MLB commercial I’ve seen. Well done and worth the watch for any baseball fan.

In Acts, opposition often rises not just because of the message itself, but because of what the message disrupts — influence (Acts 5:17; 13:45), income (Acts 16:19; 19:23–27), identity (Acts 19:26–28), and control (Acts 4:1–3; 5:28).
But still, it is suffering for Christ! It is bound up with his name, his mission, and the nature of his church.

@jonathanparnell You left out THE one critical point.
