- 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)

Temple Revival (2017 Rerun)
Some thoughts from this day in my reading plan 5 years ago . . . ——————— Two thoughts as I hover over the account of revival in Judah under King Hezekiah . . . First, revival happens where God’s house … Continue reading

A Heart That is Whole Toward Him
Wholly true but not wholly blameless. That’s what I’m picking up from what’s being laid down through King Asa’s story (2 Chronicles 14-16). Faithful at first, foolish at the finish. Adoring God in the early years, angry with God in … Continue reading
Making God Known by Who We Are
She was impressed by his wealth. But she was blown away by his wisdom. And it would seem, at least to some measure, it showed her the Way. This morning, I’m hovering over the meeting of two heads of states … Continue reading

Consider What You Do
Written for the ancient people of God, but preserved for the current people of God. Spoken to a specific group of men so that they might hear and obey, but recorded for all men and women so that we might … Continue reading

Beware Even of Spiritual Success
I’m chewing on King Hezekiah’s story in 2Chronicles this morning (ch. 29 – 32). He had a good run. Twenty-nine years on the throne and a lot to show for it. He oversaw a deep cleanse of the temple. He … Continue reading
A Chilling Epitaph
I read the words and what immediately came to mind was, “What a horrible epitaph.” I don’t think much of what might end up written in memory of me. Not really motivated by leaving a legacy. More concerned with just … Continue reading
