"Something's wrong with that church - or is something wrong with me?"

- from Clayton King
April 8, 2010


A mature Christian who loves Christ and finds their identity in Jesus is THE FIRST to champion someone else who is honoring Christ. They should be THE FIRST to offer thanks to God on behalf of the goodness of God poured out on others.

It is a sign of my own insecurity, envy, jealousy, or immaturity if I am not willing and eager to rejoice when God moves mightily in some other person, church, or ministry. And perhaps…God will not be able to bless me and my efforts, because of my pride, until I am willing to humble myself, admitting that it is GOD who gives the increase.
