- 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 Clothes Really Do Make the Man
The “price of admission” wasn’t so much their character as it was their clothing. Not about all the good they had done, but all about the garments they would don. Less about their resume, more about their robe. Chewing this … Continue reading

Our Anointing
They were all dressed up. That had some place to go. But without an anointing, they couldn’t even get in the front door . . . literally. I’m wrapping up Exodus this morning. And the prevailing theme is the creation, … Continue reading
Give and Take

An Inheritance that Lasts
Most of the conquering’s been done. Big chunks of land have already been deeded to the larger tribes. Time to divvy out the rest of the promised land. And I wonder what it was like for the leaders of the … Continue reading

A Privilege or a Pain?
Ask me to think about moving the ark of the covenant and I immediately think about the poor guy who instinctively put out his hand and grabbed the ark to keep it from falling when the oxen pulling the cart … Continue reading

What More Could They Want?
They weren’t going to get wealthy doing what they did, but they were rich beyond measure. Didn’t have the toys their neighbor’s did, but they had something far better. Couldn’t open up a bank account, but they were able to … Continue reading
