EP 90: Hungering and Thirsting After Righteousness (Matthew 5:6 – Sermon on the Mount Series)

by Marci Ferrell
Bible Study Christian Living Podcast Sermon on the Mount Theology

Those who hunger and thirst will be satisfied because they will find righteousness not in themselves but in Jesus. God is the only one and Him alone who can satisfy the deepest needs of our hearts. @sermononthemount #righteousness #biblestudy #matthew5:6 @mferrell

We all know what it feels like at times to be hungry or thirsty, but there are a hunger and thirst that should be far more concerning to us that we are going to dig into together today, and it’s not talking about physical hunger but spiritual hunger. It’s a hunger that will not be satisfied by food or water but only by God.  Augustine said: "Thou has made us for thyself, and our hearts are restless until they find their rest in thee." The good news is Jesus tells us in Matthew 5:6 ... continue reading...

by Marci Ferrell

Meekness is often defined as power under control, and in the case of the Spirit-filled believer, he or she is under the control of God's Spirit. @mferrell

Meekness is often defined as power under control, and in the case of the Spirit-filled believer, he or she is under the control of God's Spirit. Meekness towards God is a disposition of spirit that accepts His dealings as good and doesn't dispute or resist them. Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth. ~ Matthew 5:5 A gentle, trusting spirit should characterize our relationship with both man and God. It has an attitude that accepts all of God's ways as good—we are trusting the ... continue reading...

Christian Living Contentment Encouragement Marriage Motherhood Podcast Theology

The Lord is working out all things for my good and His glory, with the end purpose, always being to mold me more into the image of Jesus. @mferrell

God’s providence at work in my life should be one of my greatest securities in this life. Knowing that nothing is by chance or fate, but all is being worked in and through my life through a good God who knows me better than I know myself. The Lord is working out all things for my good and His glory, with the end purpose, always being to mold me more into the image of Jesus. God knows the circumstances needed in my life to make me more like Jesus and they're different than the circumstances ... continue reading...

by Marci Ferrell
Christian Living Encouragement Podcast Theology

On today’s episode, I’m sharing with you a message that I shared at our church’s recent women’s retreat. Our time together at the retreat was spent learning about the attributes of God. I started the weekend off sharing about the Supremacy, Eternality, Self-Sufficiency, and Self-Existence of our most awesome God and I wanted to share what I learned with you all here today. It has been said that what comes into a person’s mind when he or she thinks about God is the most important thing about ... continue reading...

"Home is the true wife's kingdom. ⁣ ⁣ Very lar "Home is the true wife's kingdom. ⁣
⁣
Very largely does the wife hold in her ⁣
hands, as a sacred trust, the happiness ⁣
and the highest good of the hearts that ⁣
nestle there. In the last analysis, home ⁣
happiness depends on the wife. ⁣
⁣
Her spirit gives the home its atmosphere. ⁣
⁣
Her hands fashion its beauty. ⁣
⁣
Her heart makes its love. ⁣
⁣
And the end is so worthy, so noble, so divine, ⁣
that no woman who has been called to be a wife, ⁣
and has listened to the call, should consider any⁣
price too great to pay, to be . . .⁣
 the light,⁣
 the joy,⁣
 the blessing,⁣
 the inspiration, ⁣
of a home. ⁣
⁣
The woman who makes a sweet, beautiful home, ⁣
filling it with love and prayer and purity, is doing ⁣
something better than anything else her hands ⁣
could find to do beneath the skies.⁣
⁣
A true mother is one of the holiest secrets of ⁣
home happiness. God sends many beautiful things ⁣
to this world, many noble gifts; but no blessing is ⁣
richer than that which He bestows in a mother who ⁣
has learned love's lessons well, and has realized ⁣
something of the meaning of her sacred calling."⁣

Summer is a natural time for me to get off my rout Summer is a natural time for me to get off my routine of menu planning. In the winter, we're more apt to stick to a schedule, but summer brings about a more flexible and changing calendar. ⁣
