- 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)

Fear and Comfort
For now, the pressure was off. For now, as a result of Saul’s encounter with the risen Christ on the road to Damascus (Acts 9:1-30), Operation “Persecute the Church” had been derailed and the focus had shifted to silencing Saul … Continue reading

Let Wisdom Reign!
If the first couple of chapters of Proverbs are any indicator, then evidently Solomon was not an “under promise, over deliver” sort of guy. As he seeks to convince his son to hear instruction and not forsake teaching (1:8); as … Continue reading

Adoration Connected to Donation
Hovering over some verses in Deuteronomy this morning which put a bit of a different lens on how we might think about our giving to the Lord. “Each year you are to set aside a tenth of all the produce … Continue reading

Forgiveness and Fear
If we were playing a game of word association, I’m not sure they’d be the two words most quickly, or even most likely to be put together. No one would be surprised if you heard “black” in response to “white.” … Continue reading

A Far-Off Fear and A Draw Near Fear
Hovering over a few verses in Exodus 20 this morning. Thinking that, for me at least, I may be so fixated on making sure I take note again of the Ten Commandments that I lose sight of what was a … Continue reading
