- So . . . I'm "feeding myself" in the morning from God's Word and thought I'd post what I'm chewin' on and make my "food" available for others who might want to nibble a bit. Hope it's of some benefit to you . . .
The word of God is living and active . . . (Hebrews 4:12)

A Magnifier
One of those mornings where a few words in a pretty well known bible story just grab me. Just five words. Each word, when alone, easily defined. But when those words are combined, the phrase stretches my ability to articulate … Continue reading
Offensive
This morning, I’m chewing on five words in the fifth chapter of Paul’s letter to the Galatians. And, if I’m picking up what is being laid down, as much as we might try to respectfully and winsomely persuade others (2Cor. … Continue reading

The FROM and FOR of the People of God (2016 Remix)
It’s a short song. Less than a hundred words parsed into eight verses packaged into four stanzas. It’s a short song about a great God to be sung by a redeemed people. The God of Jacob is the focus of … Continue reading
Put Away (2008 Remix)
As I look back in the archives, the format of my journaling was a little different back in the early days. Obvious this morning as I read some thoughts from 2008. But regardless of how I rendered my words, the … Continue reading
Where Did He Always Eat?
No home cooking for that guy. No Door Dash or Uber Eats either. He never had to ask, “Where are we going?” or “Who’s making dinner tonight?” Hovering over 2Samuel 9 and the story of Mephibosheth this morning. He was … Continue reading
Spend and Be Spent

My morning routine is first and foremost for my benefit. It’s my quiet time. It’s my time in the Word. Time to “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” (2Peter 3:18), but equally as … Continue reading
A Question. An Answer. An Effect
Okay, as I sit back after my readings and start in on this morning’s meal, it’s scrambled eggs. No one passage, no single thought, rises to the surface as THE thing to meditate on. Rather, it’s a mix of observations … Continue reading
