Years ago, as I was visiting an older gentleman in his home, he shared something that shocked me deeply. He described a falling out with his son and how he simply could not forgive his son’s treatment of him if he didn’t get an apology. It was, he believed, impossible. He mentioned a passage in scripture that, sadly, he had misunderstood. What he needed was the truth regarding the passage and a desire to reconcile. - Full Commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/the-cost-of-withheld-forgiveness
There were three other students waiting as I arrived at the school principal’s office door. All of them had the look of convicted dread on their faces as they anticipated the punishment for the wrongs they had committed.

Some people are helpers by nature. It is part of their personality to be caring, helpful, and insightful regarding the needs of other people. Being a helper is an important aspect of God’s nature, and one to which we should all aspire. How can we help, and why is it important? - Full Commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/how-can-i-help
Growing up, we may have let peer pressure get us involved in something without thinking it through fully. When our moms found out, they would ask, “If everyone was going to jump off the bridge, would you go jump, too?” Mom was sincerely looking out for our well-being. She said this to make us think, Why am I about to do this thing everyone else is doing? But how much of society still follows the crowd every year? - Full commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/woman-to-woman/following-the-crowd
There was a large crowd gathered at the funeral home, including politically prominent men and women, professionals, and working-class folks, to pay their respects. The deceased had been a successful lawyer for decades, even serving in the state legislature, before becoming a circuit judge, where he served with distinction for many years. But time is relentless, and the judge died “in a good old age, full of days” (1 Chronicles 29:28). - Full Text Here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/does-god-welcome-us-on-our-own-terms
Most people are familiar with British author Beatrix Potter’s The Tale of Peter Rabbit, which indirectly became associated with Easter through the familiar children’s song “Here Comes Peter Cottontail.” But where did Easter come from, and what does any rabbit have to do with celebrating Christ’s resurrection? - Full Text Here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/easter-bunny-or-eostre-hare

In the well-known biblical account of the prophet Jonah, God instructed His reluctant Israelite servant to deliver a warning to the city of Nineveh. Jonah unwisely attempted to shirk his duty and flee from his responsibility. To get away, he booked passage on a ship in Joppa and promptly went below for a nap—but God had plans to wake him up to reality. - Full Text Here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/the-sleeper

Have you noticed a proliferation of swearing? Political candidates and elected officials are “dropping F-bombs” (obscenities) increasingly without fear of public disapproval. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has regulations prohibiting obscenity and profanity on TV and radio, but the broadcast moderators today must be busier than ever “bleeping” out the cursing! - Full Text Here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/bleep-bleep-language

“Come with me if you want to live” is a famous line from the sci-fi movie The Terminator and its sequels, repeated by various characters. It has become a catchphrase and trope in stories about trust and rescue from danger or death. While not everyone is a fan of sci-fi movies, the phrase or its general meaning has been used in many other stories and movies where a hero rescues someone from peril to save their life. Often the rescuer is unknown to the one being rescued, who must decide whether to trust their unlooked-for “savior.” - Full Text Here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/come-with-me-if-you-want-to-live

We learn and communicate so much more when we meet face to face. Words are a big part of communication, but the face expresses much of what is in the heart. King David of Israel, the Psalmist, spoke of seeking God’s face. How can we seek God’s face if we can’t see Him? - https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/face-to-face

For as far back as I can remember, I’ve heard people say “I hope so” to express their desire for something to become a reality.
