Embracing Life's Twists and Turns: Learning from Our Journey

Life is like a journey with unexpected twists and turns. When we're young, we often ignore advice about relationships, thinking we know better. Sometimes, this leads to difficult marriages. But it's important to know that these mistakes aren't necessarily bad deeds. They're just part of our imperfect journey, teaching us valuable lessons. As we go through life, we realize that even the toughest situations can help us grow and become wiser. With age, we learn to see our ups and downs as opportunities to learn, not as punishments. Looking back, we can see how these experiences guided us through tough times, helping us understand life better.

The Ignored Wisdom of Youth

When we're young, we tend to believe we have all the answers and disregard advice from older, wiser folks. We might make choices in our relationships that seem unwise later on, leading to challenges we didn't expect.

Mistakes vs. Lessons

It's important to understand the difference between making mistakes and being a bad person. We're all learning, and our errors are chances to grow. They help shape us into the people we're meant to be.

Imperfect Paths and Valuable Lessons

Life's path isn't a straight road; it's full of twists and turns. These detours are opportunities to learn more about ourselves and the world. Every tough situation teaches us something important, helping us become better.

Growing Older, Getting Wiser

As we get older, we start to see our journey differently. We realize that our winding path is a collection of valuable lessons. What used to feel like punishment now seems like guidance, helping us understand life and relationships better. We become more thoughtful in our choices.

Learning Through Humility

Difficult lessons humble us. They make us less arrogant and more understanding of others. We learn to appreciate the challenges others face because we've been through tough times too. This humility makes us kinder and more compassionate.

Life can be tough, and the choices we make can lead to difficult situations. But remember, these ups and downs are chances to learn and grow. As we get older, we see that our experiences have guided us, helping us understand life better. Embracing life's twists and turns not only makes us wiser but also more compassionate and humble, ready to face whatever comes our way.

Be Angry, But . . .
SEPTEMBER 15, 2023

“Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down on your wrath.
Ephesians 4:26

Recommended Reading: Psalm 4
What emotion motivated William Wilberforce to campaign tirelessly against England’s participation in the African slave trade? Or, in the same vein, what propelled Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., to protest against racial injustice in the United States? Even more importantly, how did Jesus feel emotionally when He cleared the merchants and money changers from the temple in Jerusalem?

We could say that anger was the motivating emotion—but not sinful anger. Anger in itself is not sinful; it is one of many human emotions that can lead to good or evil outcomes. Anger at injustice can lead to reforms that result in justice or destructive behaviors that fuel further negative outcomes. The psalmist David warned against being angry in a sinful way. He advised meditation and stillness to sort through the emotion (Psalm 4:4). And the apostle Paul quoted David’s words with advice on relationships: be angry but don’t sin by dwelling indefinitely on your anger. Resolve your anger by the end of the day.

When you feel angry, ask yourself: Is my anger self-centered or will it motivate me to help others? Keeping anger on a short leash will help you decide.

When anger is present, look for the pain.
R. C. Sproul

Come join me on Sept. 21-23 for a Prayers That Heal the Heart seminar in Bedford, PA!


Next week I will be at Revival Glory Ministry Center in Bedford, Pennsylvania. This will be a live interactive seminar where we will be praying through all seven prayers that heal the heart.


Kay Cox prayed these prayers over me when I was in Australia and set me free of a dozen demons. It was wonderful! All of us have suffered heart wounds and need all seven of these prayers to fully heal and experience what Jesus came to do, which is “to heal the broken-hearted and set the captive free.” The synergy of these seven prayers when done together propels a person into a new level of freedom in Christ and much improved interpersonal relationships as we are no longer reacting out of our hurts and wounds.


Registration information is here: https://www.cwgministries.org/events/prayers-heal-heart and it covers more information about what the seven prayer entail


The e-learning module is available here: https://www.cluschoolofthespirit.com/courses/prayers-that-heal-the-heart-revised/

Let Love Rule
SEPTEMBER 14, 2023

Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.
Philippians 2:4

Recommended Reading: Romans 14:17-19
As the Gospel spread from Jerusalem into the world of the Gentiles, cultural issues arose that required a spiritual response. For instance, in the food markets of large cities like Corinth and Rome, meat would be sold that was leftover from sacrifices in pagan temples. In other words, it was meat that had been offered to idols. The question arose as to whether Christians could eat that meat without defiling their conscience.

Paul wrote two lengthy passages addressing this issue in 1 Corinthians 10:14–11:1 and Romans 14:1-23. In short, he said that there was no harm in eating meat from pagan temples, but he left the decision up to the individual. More importantly, he cautioned against letting one’s own conscience be a standard of judgment against others. He said that peace in the church and mutual edification were most important (Romans 14:19). As always, love was to be the guide: “Love...does not seek its own” (1 Corinthians 13:4-5).

In all our relationships—home, work, church—we are to love one another, not judge one another. Pursue peace and edification wherever you go today.

Judging others makes us blind, whereas love is illuminating.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
