Biblical reflections on life with Jesus • The Something More® Journal
The Narrow Gate
Step off the wide road that promises you peace and wholeness but never delivers it. Come to Jesus, and surrender. Leave your old life at the narrow gate, and walk with Him into a new life that never ends.
Sorry, not sorry
Have you allowed real grace and a genuine love for Jesus to saturate and shape your life so that it is in conflict with sin, structured apart from sin, positioned away from sin? Does your life tell the story of your love for Him?
Deep Roots
Close your eyes, allow yourself to be drawn into the presence of God, release your grip on control and accept Him as the source of your hope and confidence: a source of strength greater than anything that could ever be found within you.
Nowhere, but here
I have nowhere to go, but God. Nowhere, but my knees. Nowhere, but here.
You are not your own
We can start to see God’s role in our lives as a kind of magical life coach, whose purpose is to support us in the pursuit of living for our old dreams, achieving our old ambitions and avoiding our old fears—helping us to expand, unlock and saturate our new lives with the hopes and dreams of our old ones.
Jesus is calling
Maybe there is meaning, identity and absolute truth that has always been there, waiting. Maybe you have been designed, created and called for a purpose bigger than yourself. Maybe you are loved more than you can know.
Wonder in the silence
You will forever drift towards information instead of wonder. Noise instead of silence.
