Straining

Episode 151

Angus Buchan

Today Angus compels us to stop striving and to start resting in the Lord.

Rest easy in His embrace and be refreshed.

Mark 6:48-50
Then He saw them straining at rowing, for the wind was against them. Now about the fourth watch of the night He came to them, walking on the sea, and would have passed them by. And when they saw Him walking on the sea, they supposed it was a ghost, and cried out; for they all saw Him and were troubled. But immediately He talked with them and said to them, “Be of good cheer! It is I; do not be afraid.”

The Light of the world

Psalm 119:105

Are you walking in spiritual darkness? Jesus Christ is the Light of the world. Psalm 119:105. God's Word warns us that we need to walk in holiness and keep ourselves pure. We need to follow the Light of the world, Jesus Christ. 

The flint

Isaiah 50:6–7

Flint is a very hard, sharp rock, immoveable. Isaiah 50:6-7. Maybe you are going through a tough time? Don't give up, finish what you have started. Discipline is a very important part of the Christian life. When we are called by God, it is not meant to be a bed of roses. If we trust in Him then we will succeed and not fail.

Know Him

John 17:3, John 3:16, Isaiah 53:11

Isaiah 53:11. John 17:3. John 3:16. Jesus paid for your debt and my debt in full. He has taken all our sin upon Himself so that we can go free, but we need to repent of our sins and follow Him with our whole hearts. We need to get our lives right and make sure that we really know Him, because Jesus is coming soon.
