- 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)

Walking Freely In An Open Place
According to my journal, I chewed on and then wrote about this verse in 2013. I did it again in 2018. Another five years have passed, and again the verse catches my eye and my thoughts this morning. Seems to … Continue reading

For He Will Broaden Your Understanding
Weary from grief (Psalm 119:28). That’s the songwriter’s bottom line — if he were talking in CSB language. If ESV language, “My soul melts away for sorrow.” And if he allowed Peterson to put words in his mouth, “My sad … Continue reading

Pray About It
Hovering over the third stanza of Psalm 119 this morning. In it is one of my life verses, not surprised to encounter it. But this morning I also encounter a verse which particularly resonates for the first time. Bottom line, … Continue reading
I Can’t Even Walk . . .
Oh, that it were a “just do it” sort of thing. That obedience was solely a matter of the will. That walking in the way was what you did by default once you set your heart on the way. But … Continue reading

He Is Our Song (2013 Remix)
Not much wiggle room this morning. The songwriter doesn’t really provide a pass for anyone of the household of faith. Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good;His faithful love endures forever.Let Israel say,“His faithful love endures forever.”Let the … Continue reading

Paying Attention in Order to Avoid the Yoke
Kind of a powerful one-two combo this morning. Set up with a left jab in the New Testament and then taken out with a right hook from the Old. 2Corinthians 6:14 teaming up with Psalm 101 to remind me that … Continue reading
Better Felt Than Tell’t
Finished my readings this morning with Psalm 100. Chewing on the last verse. Savoring the last thing read this morning. Enter His gates with thanksgivingand His courts with praise.Give thanks to Him and bless His name.For the Lord is good, and His … Continue reading
He Loves the Place!
It’s not that it’s unfamiliar to me, but this morning it struck me as unusual. After all, the LORD loves people not places, doesn’t He? His affection is sourced in grace not geography, isn’t it? So how come the LORD … Continue reading

Keep Drawing Near (2008 Rerun)
Heading up to the homeland this morning. Grandkids are on spring break, so I’m taking a few days to hang with them (and their parents). This morning I’m digging into the archives. Warming up a meal from 15 years ago … Continue reading
Revive Us Again
I’m hoping David did not write Psalm 71 (though I suspect he might have). How come? ‘Cause Psalm 71’s songwriter self-identifies as “old and gray”, and David lived to be only 70 years old (2Sam. 5:4, 1Ki. 2:10-11). So, if … Continue reading
