- 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)

The Name to Never Forget
“My people” tend to be pretty familiar with a guy named Mephibosheth (2Samuel 9). A competing heir to the throne, crippled in both feet, and shown kindness for the sake of another. A natural enemy without any strength to elevate … Continue reading
Learn the Secret
A little bit of Paul and a little bit of Psalms combine this morning to awaken awe and promote peace. How come? Because through my readings, the Spirit drives home a secret. First, Paul. He’s wrapping up his letter to … Continue reading

Like Hitting a Bad Note
It really is kind of a shocking end to what’s been a magnificent and glorious opus. And what an opus Psalm 119 has been. It’s been a song to beat all other songs — not just in length, not just … Continue reading
An Upward Call (2013 Remix)
I think it’s true to say that I am always inspired and challenged by Philippians 3. Inspired by the thought of counting all things as loss against the gain of “the surpassing worth of knowing Christ” (3:8). Challenged by the … Continue reading
Get Rid of the High Places
Continuing to make my way through 2 Kings. This morning, it’s chapters 14 and 15. And the ominous back beats that characterize 1 and 2 Kings continue to pulse as king after king is introduced. The pattern is pretty obvious. … Continue reading
Honoring Such Men (2013 Rerun)
This morning, I’m obeying a command-to-obey. “Honor such men,” writes Paul. So, I will by re-posting something from 2013. But as I do, I’m reminded that believers should be an honoring people. In fact, Paul tells another church that when … Continue reading
Windows in Heaven (2017 Rerun)
Windows in heaven . . . the phrase grabbed me this morning as I read in 2 Kings. A wide opening through which God’s abundant provision can flow. If heaven were a great fire, think of its window as a … Continue reading

Where Understanding Comes From
From today’s readings, I’ve been shaken a bit by a fresh reminder that God will send even lying spirits from heaven to accomplish his long-range plans on earth (1Kings 22:19-23). And that just set me up for a fresh remembrance … Continue reading

Exceedingly Broad
If we really believed it then we’d really be after it. If we thought it was true, we’d make sure to invest the time. This morning, I’m chewing on a verse in Psalm 119. I have seen a limit to … Continue reading
