- 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)

And Water Came Out Abundantly
Late to the devo table this morning because kids at home were early out of bed (WAY TOO EARLY). But hey, if they’re done before noon, they can still count as morning devos. Yes? I think so. This morning a … Continue reading

I Will Wait. I Will Celebrate.
Can I summarize Habakkuk this way: I will complain; I will push back; I will stand; I will watch; I will wait; I will celebrate? I guess so, I just did. Ask me yesterday what I know about Habakkuk and … Continue reading
Be Careful. Remember.
Every year there comes a point as I read in the latter chapters of Job where I ask myself, “Self, what do you make of Elihu?” You know, Elihu, the fourth man in the fray. Not one of the three … Continue reading

God Is Faithful Even When Life Isn’t Fair
I dive into 2 Corinthians this morning knowing what’s coming. I’m ready again to read one of Paul’s most personal letters. One in which he pours out his heart because his heart has been broken. Personal because the Corinthians have … 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
Communion Amidst Confusion

Fear Not
I don’t know that I’ve ever underlined these two words in Genesis 42 with my black colored pencil before (my marking for sin), but this morning it was almost a reflexive action. I don’t think these words are always sinful, … Continue reading

God Determines the Destiny
It was Ralph Waldo Emerson who, with pen wrote: “Sow a thought and you reap an action; sow an act and you reap a habit; sow a habit and you reap a character; sow a character and you reap a … Continue reading
On the Palms of My Hands
Their situation was drastically different, but the sentiment is relatable. But Zion said, “The LORD has forsaken me; my Lord has forgotten me.” (Isaiah 49:14 ESV) Judged for her rebellion? Yes. Overrun because of her spiritual adultery? Yes. Exiled in … Continue reading
