Moleskine: In John 6, Jesus asks Philip, “Where are we to buy bread, so that these people may eat?” John then clarifies that Jesus asks this question to test Philip, because he already knew what he was going to do.
Remember that we have a savior who knows what is happening and what will happen. When confronted with a decision, lean on Him. This doesn’t mean we ignore wisdom from those around us or neglect to research and try to determine the best course of action. It means that during and after our time of trying to discern the best course of action we need to bring our decision to him and ask for his guidance.

Moleskine: Make it Count
As we get older, it’s easy to drift… settle into the grind, go through the motions, let days blur together. But that’s not living.
Resist the urge to just float through. Make it count. Push out a few extra reps in F3. Be fully present with your family when you walk through the door. Stay engaged.
No drifting. No checking out. No regrets.
Make it count.

Moleskine: At a wedding this weekend I heard the worst gospel presentation ever. The gist was, “Holy just means trying to do good. We all do that, sort of, so we’re all holy!”
WRONG!
We are all sinners in desperate need of a savior. This is why Jesus came down to live a perfect life and die in our place. My 2.0, @Gulliver, shared this song. It kinda nails it.
Run and Run (Christ Is All My Righteousness) [Live] Lyrics
Run and run the law demands
But gives me neither feet nor hands
Better news, the gospel brings
It bids me fly, it gives me wings
Bearing shame and all my sin
There in my place He stood condemned
Here I stand now justified
My guilt is His, His grace is mine
Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul, praise the Lord
Now and forevermore my heart confess
Christ is all my righteousness
Christ is all my righteousness
My accuser, he may roar
Of countlеss sins that I have done
Thesе I know and thousands more
Behold, my God, He knows not one
Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul, praise the Lord
Now and forevermore my heart confess
Christ is all my righteousness
Christ is all my righteousness
When I stand before the throne
There dressed in beauty not my own
Then, Lord, shall I fully know
Not til that day how much I owe
Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul, praise the Lord
Now and forevermore my heart confess
Christ is all my righteousness
Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul, praise the Lord
For now this sinner’s heart has found its’ rest
