- 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)

When it comes to the dynamics of our salvation there is much to evoke awe and wonder. Start with a debt we could not pay, transgression against a holy God, and that the debt was paid by Another. And that … Continue reading

Tapping Into Grace
As the saying goes, “What you win them with is what you win them to.” So, for those of us who know that any merit we have before a holy God is by grace alone, we desire nothing more than … Continue reading

You Coming?
Chewing on Hebrews 4 this morning. A rest promised. God’s rest. The kind of rest God modeled at creation. A Sabbath rest. The “work is finished” type of rest. But one that we need to strive to enter. That’s a … Continue reading

Divine Forbearance
According to 2Kings, his reign was pretty much the straw that broke the camel’s back. Sure, there would be one more government mandated revival in Judah after him, but Manasseh’s determination to do “evil in the sight of the LORD, … Continue reading
Blessed, and Blessed Forever!
Recorded both in 2Samuel 7 and in today’s reading in 1Chronicles 17, it is, for me, one of the most moving accounts in all of Scripture. David desires to build a permanent dwelling where God’s glory might reside. No more … Continue reading
Turn to Me and Be Gracious
For me, it is one of my favorite stories told about Jesus in the gospels. If I had a “top ten”, this would be on the list. The picture that is painted of Jesus teaching in a house when all … Continue reading

The Grace Available . . . The Glory to be Revealed
Double dose of fulfilled promise this morning. One from the Old Testament, the other from the New. Both concerning the same promise–God’s promise to David that He would “raise up your offspring after you, . . . establish his kingdom. … Continue reading

Lift Up the Cup!
We’re in Maui. Sue and I will be enjoying the blessing of this place for the next number of days as we reflect on, and rejoice in thirty-five years of marriage. Can’t help but that such milestones are cause for … Continue reading
A Place at the Table
Longer than normal post this morning, but it’s one of my favorite stories in all of Scripture. Every year when I encounter it as part of my reading plan it has a special feel about it . . . igniting … Continue reading
