Why Would God Want to Serve Us in Heaven?

article - Randy Alcorn

As a father who loves his children goes out of his way to help them, God promises that he will always give of himself for us. Why? Because he loves us and wants to show forever his appreciation for our loyalty and service to him in this life. Does that mean we deserve God’s grace? Of course not.

article - Randy Alcorn

How do we stop the madness of pride and the insanity of sin?

(This is an argument for starting each day in Scripture to recalibrate and make sure the compass is pointing true north, to the person of God.)
