Cause or Effect? Yes!

Posted on December 5, 2017 by Pete

The love of God . . . that’s what I’m noodling on this morning. Continuing my reading in John 16 as Jesus prepares His disciples for the worst night of their lives and the best day to follow. And in … Continue reading →

No Silence in Heaven

Posted on December 1, 2017 by Pete

Sometimes it’s something I never really noticed or seen before that grabs my attention during my morning readings. But often my morning meal is like sitting down again with an old friend. What captures my imagination has done so in … Continue reading →

When God Watched Over Me

Posted on November 30, 2017 by Pete

You wonder if Job’s just getting tired. Apart from the chronic pain sapping his strength, there’s the incessant drip of his miserable comforters telling him to ‘fess up and admit that what he’s going through must be because of the … Continue reading →

Abide in My Love

Posted on November 29, 2017 by Pete

Said to them, but written for us. They were the actual recipients of Jesus’ words, but what was true concerning the disciples is also true of us. And it’s the stuff that makes for a full meal. And yet, it’s … Continue reading →

Man Greatly Loved

Posted on November 21, 2017 by Pete

Reading in Daniel this morning. And, to be honest, not sure I’m that focused on picking up the pieces of prophecy being laid down. Instead, I’m a bit distracted by who’s delivering the vision and how he refers to Daniel. … Continue reading →

Contend for the Faith

Posted on November 17, 2017 by Pete

Throwback Friday (I know, not a thing, but that’s what today’s gonna be). I’m hovering over the brief letter written by Jude and thinking about how I would just as soon chew on the good tasting stuff of verses 24 … Continue reading →

Wash My Feet

Posted on November 16, 2017 by Pete

Often, I think I jump to what I need to do rather than just chew on what He’s done. I rush to practical application, brushing past the wonder of incarnation. Ready to imitate, before I take time to meditate. Such … Continue reading →

An Unlikely Psalmist

Posted on November 15, 2017 by Pete

I’ll take lesser known songs of praise for 2000, Alex. Blessed be the Most High, and praise and honor Him who lives forever, for His dominion is an everlasting dominion, and His kingdom endures from generation to generation; all the … Continue reading →
