- 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)

Seek, Seek, Seek
It’s a command to obey in Psalm 105 that hooks me this morning. Oh give thanks to the LORD; call upon His name; make known His deeds among the peoples!Sing to Him, sing praises to Him; tell of all His wondrous works!Glory … Continue reading
A Highway in the Heart
The reason Psalm 84 resonates so deeply is because I have the same programming. That I too would consider the dwelling place of God “lovely” (v.1), that I would feel what the songwriters felt when they sung, “My soul longs, … Continue reading

Where God Chooses to Dwell
This morning I’m chewing on where God is dwelling. Every Sunday, our corporate worship begins with a call to examine ourselves. And it’s always the same inventory we’re encouraged to consider. Are we weary and need rest? Are we mourning … Continue reading

Heart Highways
When we moved to the U.S. over twenty years ago, we adopted a new bible. Not one that replaced the one we took to church, but one which was added and referenced almost always when we got into the car. … Continue reading
Jehovah Shimmur
This morning I’m chewing on a nine-word phrase which caught my eye as I was reading in Exodus 12. Nine words which I underlined in navy blue because it’s an observation about God. An observation that He is Jehovah Shimmur. … Continue reading

He Regards the Lowly

It’s easy, especially when it comes to well known stories we’ve heard since Sunday School, to read them again with the end in mind. To skim over details until we get to “the lesson.” To rush through the “back story” … Continue reading
Careworn but Confident
I don’t know about you, but these days I awake most mornings with a certain level of burden. Sometimes I can identify specific issues and situations which contribute to the weight on my chest I feel even before I’ve gotten … Continue reading

Pressures, Prayer, Promises, and Presence
For me, Psalm 119 is the psalm of psalms. Fearfully and wonderfully made. Like all of Scripture, knit together through the pen of the songwriter by the inspiration of the Spirit. Yet, this song is different. While, overall it has … Continue reading

It Is Good To Be Near God
Feeling isolated yet? If you’re an introvert who normally racks up a fair amount of on-your-own time, maybe you’re scratching your head saying, “What’s that?” But maybe, if you’re more used to going a million miles an hour and having … Continue reading
