This Sunday at Church: Encourage a Single Parent in the Congregation
I am amazed at the number of single parents that God has put in my path.
May we encourage our single parents around us in the Lord and in life.
Daniel
This Sunday at Church I want to encourage you to do the following: Pray any pastoral counseling today would be used by God. I have been working all week on preparation for my upcoming overseas travel to teach on biblical parenting. I have been spending a long time thinking about single parents, as one of […]

VerseD: Matthew 7:13-14
“Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.”
Matthew 7:13-14, ESV
Our world either wants to earn their own way to salvation or think they can get there anyway they choose.
We know it is in Christ alone we are saved, and it takes personal sacrifice to follow Him.
VerseD: John 15:4
Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.
John 15:4, ESV
God has sought us out, but we must also choose to honor and love Him.
The best way love others is to love and seek God with everything we are, for He first loved us.
VerseD: Galatians 6:2
Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.
Galatians 6:2, ESV
Life is difficult, so God gave us the example: sacrifice for each other, loving each other through help, work, and comfort.
VerseD: Psalm 8:3-4
When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is man that you are mindful of him, and the son of man that you care for him?
Psalm 8:3-4, ESV
God created all of space, matter, and time, from the largest galaxy cluster to the tiniest speck of matter and beyond.
Yet, He watches over and cares for each of us.
Trust in Him.
VerseD: Proverbs 19:21
Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.
Proverbs 19:21, ESV
We try to run our own lives, but God has an ultimate plan. Trust in His plan, in Him.
VerseD: Zephaniah 3:17
The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.
Zephaniah 3:17, ESV
As we live in this world, we will be encumbered and afflicted with worries, anxieties, and fears.
But our God can and does save us, giving us strength and joy in the midst of evil and suffering. Lean on Him.
VerseD: John 11:25-26
Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?”
John 11:25-26, ESV
No one wants to die. It is our God who takes away the fear and permanence of death if we believe and trust in Him.

But sometimes some counseling happen during Sunday after service whether at […]

Do we truly love the Lord our God with all our hearts, souls, minds, and strengths? Maybe I can help with the mind part, at least! This is Daniel M. Klem, apparent poet, reluctant yet passionate Disciple (Peter?), and foolish man attempting to understand theology!
