Proverbs 13:17 – Worldly Success

By jeff on April 7, 2024 in Comics

God wants us to succeed in everything we do, but we should never put the pursuit of money ahead of our relationship with God. Proverbs 13:17 speaks to this:

Wealth from get-rich-quick schemes quickly disappears; wealth from hard work grows over time.

Proverbs 13:17

↓ Transcript

Con: What's wrong?
Nim: Abby pointed out something bad I've been doing. I was trying to get rich quick so I could have power over my own destiny, instead of trusting God to care for me.
Con: Cheer up, little guy. At least you see the error of your ways.
Nim: I know. But now I don't get to dominate the world!

Only a fool relies on himself over God.

Joseph's brothers were envious of his coat of many colors.

Prayer Is Free

By jeff on March 29, 2024 in Comics

It’s easy to let the stress of today’s world get you down. But instead of complaining, say a prayer today asking God to help you recognize your blessings.

↓ Transcript

Con:
I heard a man complain about the price of gas today.
He said it was an outrage how much he had to pay.

But gas was not the only thing he liked to rave about.
He then said his grocery bill was really too far out.

In spite of all his blessings, no gratitude had he.
He failed to recognize that prayer is still free!

If you're feeling beaten down by the high cost of living, make a date for prayer time with God.

Con's Big Bible Facts: The Book of Isaiah

Con:
Isaiah 49:16 will rock your socks off!!!

It features God telling the people of Israel He will never forget them, saying "I have engraved you on the palms of My hands."

Now...what proof did Jesus offer His disciples that He had returned from the dead? The holes in his palms. Those holes were a symbol of God's love and the fact that He will never forget us.

And what's cool is that Isaiah was written 700 years before Jesus!

You could say that the holes in Jesus' hands represent the names of those He died for.
