- 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)

Gathered to His People
Euphemisms, we use them all the time. Using a word or phrase in place of another word or phrase that makes us uncomfortable. In my corporate life, we often preferred to talk about “downsizing” rather than “job eliminations.” For those … Continue reading

This Life
Chewing on something this morning that I know I’ve read many times before but somehow feel like I’m only noticing for the first time. When Jesus came, according to Mark, He came preaching “the gospel of God” (Mk. 1:14). Matthew … Continue reading

A Whole Lot of Testifying Going On
Testimony. A solemn declaration of what is true or actual. Testify. To bear witness. To give evidence or proof of something existing or being the case. Hovering over 1John 5:6-12 this morning. And there’s a whole lot of testifying going … Continue reading
Swallowed Up By Life

That Age
Since the day Jesus arrived back in Jerusalem, riding on a colt and receiving the praise of the crowd (Lk.19:28-40), He taught daily in the temple (19:47). And like any good teacher, He provided opportunity for Q&A. But those who … Continue reading

First Mention of The Saints
Reading in Matthew this morning and the account of Jesus’ death. And what particularly captured my attention were the events recorded immediately after “Jesus cried out again with a loud voice and yielded up His spirit” (27:50). And behold, the … Continue reading
