- 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)

Moses — the guy did it all! Body surfing the Nile as a baby, he was educated at the U. of Egypt as a young man. Took up activism in his late 30’s, standing against the oppression his adoptive family … Continue reading
Jesus is the Man
You never know when you’re going to see Jesus in the Scriptures. Well, that’s not true. If you’re reading the gospels, you kind of know. And, if you’re reading the epistles, you’re pretty sure He’s gonna show up there as … Continue reading
The Horns of the Wild Ox
It’s one of those repeated phrases that arrests the attention. But this one, I’m pretty sure, for the first time. I’m in Numbers and reading of Barak’s frustrating attempt to get Balaam, a well-known practitioner of divination, to curse God’s … Continue reading
And Water Came Out Abundantly
Late to the devo table this morning because kids at home were early out of bed (WAY TOO EARLY). But hey, if they’re done before noon, they can still count as morning devos. Yes? I think so. This morning a … Continue reading

Breaking Faith
It was a word specifically for the people of God, those who had been delivered from bondage, set apart as holy, and were on their way to the promised land. Guess then, I could take it as a word for … Continue reading
Not What I Would Have Prayed
It doesn’t seem fair. Sure, he rebelled, if you can call it that (God does). But it wasn’t like the way they had rebelled. The community refused to enter the land flowing with milk and honey, and then they continued … Continue reading

Grace Will Reign — Part 2 . . . An OT Thing as Well
Wah, wah, wah! Somebody call a wahm-bulance! Why did we ever leave Egypt? Moses, why did you bring us to the wilderness to die? Where is this land flowing with milk and honey? We’re thirsty! It must have been tiresome … Continue reading
A Shepherd for the Sheep
You’ve got to admire Moses. He has come a long way from “send someone else” (Exodus 4:13). What’s ironic though, is that it’s evident by the fact that, at the end of his life, he’s still praying, “send someone else.” … Continue reading
A Weird Taste, A Wonderful Taste
Sometimes it just doesn’t taste good. Even if it’s good for you (aka God-breathed and profitable for being trained in righteousness), it still leaves a weird after taste no matter how long you chew on it. That’s kind of how … Continue reading
Fell on Their Faces | Stands in God’s Presence
Not much sleeping last night, so double reading this morning. And as I’m reading this extended portion in Numbers, I’m aware of how my view of the grumbling Israelites has changed over the years. From once being in utter disbelief … Continue reading
