- 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)

This I Know
Hovering over 1Corinthians 13 this morning. And experiencing a myriad of mixed emotions. Initially, there’s a warm and fuzzy feeling of processing again those “love” verses (1Cor. 13:4-8a) as the aspiration of so many newlyweds at the altar. But stare … Continue reading
The Right Filter
Elihu presents the encore argument. Jobs other friends, Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite are done talking. Though they came to Job to “show him sympathy and comfort him” (Job 2:11), in trying to make sense … Continue reading
Assuming God
Would it be a fair statement that for some of us followers of Jesus (for many of us?) we might tend towards assuming God? After all, God is a given. If we didn’t believe in God we wouldn’t be following … Continue reading
A Big Ask
Talk about praying big prayers! Talking about going for broke on the ask! Then, you’re talking about Ephesians 3:14-21. Chewing on Paul’s prayer for the Ephesian believers. And Paul swings for the fence. He prays first that they be “strengthened … Continue reading

By This We Know – Part II
Yesterday, I was reminded that our salvation is more than just a profession of faith, it is more so a possession of the evidences of faith. That to claim you believe in a certain truth will manifest itself in that … Continue reading
One Thing I Do Know
We’ve been stretching our brains considering the incommunicable attributes of God during our mid-week study. Incommunicable — 14 letters, 6 syllables — and that’s but one of the big words we’ve added to our vocabulary. Another is God’s incomprehensibility — … Continue reading

Last Words among Last Words
Wrapped up about 20 days in 1 and 2 Peter. Peter’s last letters to those taking it in the teeth for Jesus. Peter’s final exhortations for those in the pressure cooker of oppression, dispersion, and some confusion about the end … Continue reading

A Like No Other God
Hovering over Isaiah 45 this morning. Particularly the prophet’s words directed to a Persian king. A king called by name by a God he didn’t know. A king unaware he has been equipped by heaven to accomplish the Creator’s purposes … Continue reading

A Blessing Here and Now
I had a brief conversation with someone yesterday who “had to admit” their faith was being shaken somewhat by the suffering being experienced by various people within our church family. I empathized with her empathy for those who are dealing … Continue reading
God Has Spoken
God has spoken. That’s a key bet for our faith, isn’t it? If our God were not a communicating God, He would be but a God of our own imagination. If God has not addressed those created in His image, … Continue reading
