I Believe, Even When..
In a Cologne, Germany cellar, a Jew hiding from the Nazis scratched out these words on the wall: “I believe in the sun, even when it is not shining. I believe in love, even when I don’t feel it. I believe in God, even when there is silence.”

Weak and tired? Then praise the LORD!
For a week or more I have been feeling weak and tired. Today has been particularly challenging.
Here is part of a timely devotional I received today via e-mail from Rev. Dr. Issaiah Waddy:
Father, we get tired and sometimes we get weak. We must confess we even weary in doing good. Not just our enemies but even our family and love ones get on our nerves. Father, You have such patience with us, loving and providing for us when we are pouting and mean. Father, teach us to strive to be like Your Son Jesus, loving wholeheartly.
In our tiredness refresh us, in our weakness strengthen us, in our sadness give us Joy, peace and the Holy Ghost. Help us to strip off apathy, complacency, depression, unforgiving spirits, laziness, intolerance, and help us put on the garment of praise.
Let everything that lives sing praises to the Lord!
When we praise, we feel better; when we praise, we serve better; when we praise, we love greater; when we praise, burdens are lifted and yokes are destroyed

Time for spring cleaning?
According to the World of Quotes, John Wesley included in one of his sermons, "Certainly this is a duty, not a sin. Cleanliness is indeed next to godliness.'"
Further back, the Talmud states, "The doctrines of religion are resolved into carefulness; carefulness into vigorousness; vigorousness into guiltlessness; guiltlessness into abstemiousness; abstemiousness into cleanliness; cleanliness into godliness." [Maybe that's where Wesley got it from?]
(Even the Quran is credited with adopting the idea, with its, "God loveth the clean.")
Perhaps this would be a good time to clean our "spiritual houses," too.
Consider Hebrews 12:1 -- Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.

1. The Bible will still have all the answers.
2. Prayer will still be the most powerful thing on Earth..
3. The Holy Spirit will still move.
4. God will still honor the praises of His people.
5. There will still be God-anointed preaching.
