Welcome to CareerCall! In addition to sharing faith-based books, we hope this international blog and devotional will provide encouragement to all believers in their primary career and calling to fulfill the great commission within our homes, the church, the marketplace and amidst a watching world. There was a time my life was filled with blind ambition and grand dreams. …
Joy In Heart Ache
2 Corinthians 6:10 makes a sobering yet inspiring statement when it declares, “our hearts ache, but we always have joy”. Clearly, this is applicable and possible for believers in Jesus Christ. Yet, it also seems to remain allusive, or even misunderstood. For so often we desire God to zap us away from all the heart …
Go…
Over and over again we are encouraged by God to “go out, and…” be fruitful, steward, disciple, love, etc. To help us go, God continues with the encouragement by reminding us we are not alone, not to worry, and not to fear, but to trust, and seek Him as we go. It’s almost as if …
Tis The Season…
We are reminded in Ecclesiastes 3:1 that there is a season for everything, and a time for every activity on earth. Seasons come and go, and are completely out of our control. They come to us, and we are enveloped by them. The learning is to not fight against these seasons, but to move our …
Moving Toward Love
We enjoy experiencing, studying about, and are pulled toward whatever it is we love. Until purified however, this may result in unhealthy consequences. As an example, when I was younger, I loved the idea of riches, and so I studied all I could about how to make it, grow it, and keep it. I practically …
The Better Of Us
Guarding the heart is one of our primary callings by God. As such, it shouldn’t be too surprising that it’s also one of the most challenging things to do. If we are told, “above all else, guard your heart, because everything you do flows from it”. Proverbs 4:23. That’s a big statement that far too …
May Your Cups Be Full Again and Again
There is a great lyric in the song, Ripple, that says, “reach out your hand, if your cup be empty. If your cup is full, may it be again. Let it be known, there is a fountain that was not made by the hands of men”. Now, I’m not about to assume this is a …
I Choose You
There’s something about love, true love, that sets our soul free. It gives an abundance and meaning to life that is both immeasurable and indescribable. To receive love and to give love isn’t something we naturally know how to do well. For it’s supernatural. We may know a feeling of “love”, but we also know …
Thin Skin Or Hard Heart
May we grow in the faith and confidence that our true identity and value is in Christ, and that we are secure in Who’s we are without any need for fear, or anxiety to what may others may think and say about us. For being thin skinned is a painful way to live, causing us …
Deep Discoveries
I’ve been walking closely with God nearly two decades now. Though my time is more than some and less than others, it has been the most transformational years of my life. The adventure has been grand and the discoveries deep. Though as seemingly slow as an archeological dig, God has revealed, renewed, restored, refreshed, and …
Heart Attacks
We are told by God that our hearts are the wellspring to life, and that we are to guard them. This is because they are under attack, and if our hearts can be damaged, hardened, broken, bitter, and angry...well, we know what that outflow looks like. On the other hand, if we truly guard our …
