- 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 One Unfailing Constant
Two despondent soul conditions. Seven urgent asks. One unfailing constant. That’s what I’m hovering over this morning as I chew on Psalm 119:25-32. Love the way Peterson gets to the heart of the songwriter’s desperate soul condition. I’m feeling terrible—I … Continue reading

Consolations for Our Cares
The songwriter of Psalm 94 knew that all things work together for good, but those “things” were still working themselves out, and it wasn’t going very “good” right then. He knew that one day God’s vengeance would shine forth over … Continue reading

The Steadfast Heart, An Anchor for the Soul
Chewing on Psalm 57 this morning. First thing that grabbed my attention was the seeming incongruity between the songwriter’s wretched circumstance and the songwriter’s worshipful response. My soul is in the midst of lions; I lie down amid fiery beasts … Continue reading
