- 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)

No Longer Prey!
Continuing to read in Ezekiel and John this morning, and the two readings come together. In Ezekiel, while there’s been a whole lot of judgment pronounced thus far upon the nation of Israel, the Judge’s focus now turns to Israel’s … Continue reading

We Have an Anointing
John has already warned them of the dangers from “out there.” He’s just exhorted them not to love the world — not to esteem how it thinks, not to covet what it offers, not to be molded by how it … Continue reading

Do Not Love the World
As far as “commands to obey” go, I’m guessing it’s pretty well known among believers. Probably among the first we learned when first we were coached on what it means to die to self, take up the cross, and follow … Continue reading

We Give Glory to God!
What’s new under the sun? Nothing (Eccl. 1:9). Cancel culture, too? Yup, it’s been there done that. Reading in John 9 again this morning — in the middle of three days of some of my favorite readings in my reading … Continue reading

Grow!
Peter wrote to remind them of ” these things” — things they already knew, things upon which they already stood firm (2Pet. 1:12). Things which Peter very much wanted them to be able to recall at any time (1:15). Things … Continue reading
Really My Disciple. Really Free.
Authenticity. It’s always been a big deal. Perhaps today, in an age of Photoshopped images and a plethora of fake news sources, it’s an even bigger deal. Sometimes it’s really hard to know what’s really real and what’s really not, … Continue reading
Atonement for All You Have Done
Hovering over an Old Testament story. In my CSB the translators have entitled the chapter “Parable of God’s Adulterous Wife.” And what a story it is. A story told by the LORD God in His own words. A story of … Continue reading
They Feast With You
Arrogant people, so full of themselves they have no fear of slandering anyone else or anything else. Creatures driven by base instinct, following the polluted desires of their flesh, and with no regard for authority. Jazzed by doing what shouldn’t … Continue reading
Two Words of Wisdom
It’s wisdom literature — sometimes I forget that. That Proverbs is wisdom literature is a gimme. So too with Ecclesiastes and the Psalms. All of these clearly providing divine insight for the meaning and maneuvering of life. That Song of … Continue reading
