- 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 Word of God in our Hands, the Spirit of God in our Hearts
This morning it’s the concluding verses of 1John 2 which grab my attention. Like, REALLY grab my attention! As in, “Don’t skim past this, Pete . . . This is profound! This is jaw-dropping! . . . Hover over it … Continue reading
In Christ Jesus (2014 Remix)
I’d almost defy any blood-bought believer to sit down with Romans 8, read it in one thoughtful sitting, and not be in a different place when they finish the chapter from where they were when they began it. It is … Continue reading

In Every Hour
His disciples must have been picking up that following Jesus wasn’t a matter of if things were going to get rough, but when. To follow Jesus would end up being out of sync with the world — and in their … Continue reading
Christ Is In You
Four words. That’s what I’m chewing on this morning. Yet four words within one grand context — Romans 8. There’s no way you can read Romans 8 and not be stirred within your soul. There is therefore now no condemnation … Continue reading

A Directed Heart

The Power At Work Within Us
Wrapping up Ephesians 3 this morning. For three chapters Paul’s been laying down truth after truth concerning who these Ephesians are, and what they possess, in Christ. And twice he prays for them. At the end of chapter 1 and … Continue reading

Free To Be a Debtor
Lots of terms come to mind to describe the believer like . . . well, like believer. Or saint. Or brother or sister. Child of God. Disciple. Redeemed. New creation. You get the idea. And I’m sure we could add … Continue reading
