- 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)

For those who know something of the life of Solomon, if asked, “When did things start to ‘go south’ for this wisest and most impressive of all Israel’s king”, the answer is likely to be, “When he started marrying ‘foreign … Continue reading
The Eyes of Your Heart
And I thought Paul Baloche had flunked anatomy. That in his “artistic license” he was loosely connecting body parts that aren’t really connected. But he was quoting Scripture! Who knew? Open the eyes of my heart, LordOpen the eyes of … Continue reading

Blessed!
I start in on Psalm 119 this morning with expectation. These next 22 readings in the Psalms are among my favorite portions of my reading plan. An Ode to the Word. A Love Letter for God’s Law. One grand theme … Continue reading
How Shall I Make Atonement?
Something was wrong. So wrong it resulted in divine displeasure — famine for three years. Thus, David “sought the face of the Lord” (2Sam. 21:1). Good move. But then, it seems, David took matters into his own hands. Reading 2 … Continue reading
Look Way Up! (2020 Rerun)
As I look back through May 2020 in my e-journal, the first thing I notice is that there are entries in it for every day of the month. Never missed. Never too busy. Never needed to ignore the morning wakeup … Continue reading

If God, in His very being and essence, is holy, righteous, and just (and He is), and if we are image-bearers of God (and we are), then it shouldn’t surprise us that at our core we too are wired for … Continue reading
David Sent Joab. The LORD Sent Nathan.
I’m pretty sure David didn’t wake up one morning wanting to displease the LORD (2Sam. 11:27b). I’m confident he didn’t start his day intent on “despising the word” of the LORD or doing “what was evil in His sight” (2Sam. … Continue reading

The Key
Paul turns the tables on the Corinthians as he wraps up his letter to them. While they have been examining him and the authenticity of his apostleship, he now writes, “Examine yourselves.” He sits them down and says, “Test yourselves.” … Continue reading

Nevertheless
There they were again. Situation desperate. “Save us, O LORD!” (v.47) And when I say “again”, I mean AGAIN. This wasn’t their first rodeo. Not the first time they had blown it. Not the first time their waywardness had left … Continue reading
