Great news! You can stop feeling guilty about your past. If you are a follower of Jesus, you are a new creation! (2 Cor. 5:17) God is more concerned with your future than your past.

How come nothing sticks to Teflon®, yet Teflon ® sticks to pans? Sorry, a silly joke from my youth. But it does tie into our One Verse for today. We are called to live a nonstick life. We should live in such a way that no accusation sticks to us. No, they didn’t have Teflon® in the Bible, but the principle remains the same. On this path of life, we can’t see how close we get to the edge (sorry for mixing my metaphors). We shouldn’t try to push limits and see what we can get away with. We should live a “nonstick” life. If that sounds exhausting, that’s ok. 1 Thessalonians 3:13 also tells us that God will strengthen our hearts. He will provide the energy, power, and even rest we need to live a blameless life.   About One Verse One Verse is a short, free podcast devotional designed to help you grow closer to God through less than 5 minutes a day, 5 days a week.

There is one very powerful, yet surprising way to show love for your children: Correcting them. The same is true in our relationship with God. I love my children more than I ever thought I would be able to love anything. Being a dad is one of my greatest callings (along with being a husband. Ministry is third. That’s biblical. Look it up if you don’t believe me.) But there is one critical way that I must show love to my children that I am not always a fan of… Correcting them. This is so hard! My Baby Girl is two. So, that means that she is getting to the point of understanding right and wrong. So, she is starting to get timeouts and stuff. Even if I use a firm voice, she starts to cry and runs down the hallway. It kills me! But our One Verse today is clear. Proverbs 27:5 says, “Better is open rebuke than hidden love.” In other words, open correction shows love to your children. And every parent knows this. Actually, everyone knows this because we’ve all seen “that kid” at the grocery store who could use some
