Jesus turned to Peter and said, ‘Get away from me, Satan! You are a dangerous trap to me. You are seeing things merely from a human point of view, and not from God’s.’” Matthew 16:23 (NLT) *** *** *** *** Jesus says we should think like He thinks – with a heavenly perspective above and beyond mere human thinking. This doesn’t mean we become mindless robots; rather, our thoughts should begin to match the thoughts of God as His Spirit works within us, helping us to look at people and circumstances from his perspective: “From now on, then, we do …

Is Jesus Capable To Manage Your Life?
“He has rescued us from the domain of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of the Son He loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.” Colossians 1:13–14 (HCSB) *** *** *** *** It’s been my experience that whenever there is a change of leadership, people get nervous.

Will the new people in power change things for the better or for worse? When …
