At this time of year Americans spend an exorbitant amount of money on costumes with the goal of disguising their identity. I would suggest that most of us in one way or another try to disguise our real selves every day. I’m sure everyone has their reasons, but ultimately God knows us no matter what we do to conceal the flaws and imperfections. Maybe its time to come clean and just be who we are and trust God for the outcome.

There are over 85 million security cameras in the US recording people every day. It kind of makes you wonder, “Who is watching you?” As Christians, it is important remember there are people watching how we live, not to criticize, but to learn about our life as a Christ follower. Let’s be sure they get a clear picture and will desire to know Jesus as well.

Everyone seems so tired anymore. Even children and teenagers talk about how tiered they are. It shouldn’t be surprising to us when you realize most people live life in their own strength. Our own strength is very limited, but God has an unlimited supply for us when we wait on Him. If you need strength, why not go to the source of all things and ask Him.
