- 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)

Seen in the Shadows
There’s a lot in Ezekiel that I don’t get. And it’s not just trying to make sense of Ezekiel’s description of things he sees which are beyond description. Even some of the things clearly described are still mysterious shadows within … Continue reading
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

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
Rerun Week – Day 2

A Sanctuary (A 2018 Rerun)
Been a weird week. Been a struggle just to feed on the word in the morning much less try and share a meal. But this morning it’s still quiet and I’m reading in Ezekiel. Captured afresh by the thought of … Continue reading

The Man Standing in the Breach (A 2014 Rerun)
Hovering over what has come to be for me one of the most inspiring, prophetic utterances of the LORD God in all of Ezekiel’s writings. Here’s some thoughts from six years ago which try to express the wonder, awe, and … Continue reading
The LORD Is There
Maybe 2020 will be the year. The year I dig deeper into Ezekiel. Wrapped up the book in this morning’s reading. A lot of it I think I get. A lot of it, not so much. The apocalyptic unveiling of … Continue reading
It Really Isn’t About Us
Reading again in Ezekiel this morning and chewing on a conundrum God shares with His prophet. To not deal with His people’s idolatry and rebellion was to allow them to continue to defile the land of promise, the land of … Continue reading

The Promised Shepherd
Lot of judgin’ going on in the prophets. The rebellious and adulteress house of Israel is judged. The adulteress and rebellious house of Judah is judged. The people are judged. The leaders are judged. And even their enemies are judged. … Continue reading
