A little wit, a little struggle, a lot of Jesus

The Simple List {12.5.15}

By Tresta on Dec 05, 2015 08:25 am

The Simple List is my way of pointing you to something redeeming on the webs, something thought provoking or eye-catching or soul-refreshing. I can’t keep up with all the good words out there but I try to curate a few things every now and then that might be of help.

I hope these links are reminders of the simplest things that make a good life: truth, goodness, beauty.

Truth||

What is Calling & Should We Stay in the Military @ Bekah Difelice

“Calling tends to be confusing because it implies there is a solicitation I’m still waiting on, an invitation lost in the mail.

But now I’m starting to suspect that calling is far more invisible than I initially imagined, that it often involves an internal equipping instead of an external beckoning.”

Goodness||

“I would have lost heart, unless I had believed

That I would see the goodness of the LORD

In the land of the living.

Wait on the LORD;

Be of good courage,

And He shall strengthen your heart;

Wait, I say, on the LORD!”

Psalm 27:13-14

Beauty||

Feasting: An Act of War @ Story Warren

“No doubt you have been at a feast that was an act of war. Perhaps you didn’t realize it at the time, but you have. Anytime you sit at a table with those who share your conviction that Jesus is returning, you declare war on the lies of this world — this mixed-up, passing-away, broken world. You reinstate the truth of creation, joy, and all things made new.” [emphasis mine]
