- 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 Grace Available . . . The Glory to be Revealed
Double dose of fulfilled promise this morning. One from the Old Testament, the other from the New. Both concerning the same promise–God’s promise to David that He would “raise up your offspring after you, . . . establish his kingdom. … Continue reading

Limping Along
It really wasn’t about wicked king Ahab or his prophets of Baal. Nor was it about a showdown on Mt. Carmel. It wasn’t even about fire from heaven. As I’m reading 1Kings 18 this morning, I’m reminded it was about … Continue reading
Making God Angry
In a conversation with a friend earlier this week, he reminded me that we tend to classify sin. All sin is bad, sure. But some sin, based on the response of many, is REALLY bad . . . way worse … Continue reading
A Dinner Invitation
In many ways it’s kind of a confusing story. Not the part about the man of God sent to King Jeroboam to pronounce judgment on the king for his idolatrous leadership of the northern kingdom. That part’s pretty clear. The … Continue reading
More Than We Could Ask or Deserved
It must be one of the best known encounters between a man and God in the Old Testament. And, it must be one of the most inspirational. God appears to the newly crowned king, Solomon, in a dream and says, … Continue reading
The Power of Repentance
I read it and I did a double take . . . and so, I read it again. Unbelievable. You wouldn’t have naturally thought it possible given the clear testimony of Scripture . . . “there was none who sold himself … Continue reading

The Wonder of Regeneration
It would be almost comical if the situation weren’t so tragic. As it is, it’s almost unbelievable that someone could have had such an encounter of the divine kind as did Jeroboam, and yet be so dense as to the … Continue reading

A Heart Turned Away
Solomon can be one of the most inspiring examples in Scripture and yet, one of the most tragic. A monument of grace . . . born to David, the man after God’s own heart . . . born through Bathsheba, … Continue reading

Heart Massage
I don’t even think about it very often . . . but if it weren’t happening, I wouldn’t be thinking about anything at all. I”m talking about my pumping heart. We tend to pay them no attention . . . … Continue reading
