- 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 Temple Opened (2014 Rerun)
One of those mornings where, rather than write in my journal, I read from it. And these thoughts from 12 years ago stir my soul. What “infinite grace” . . . that I might enter a heavenly place . . … Continue reading

Don’t Let Me Miss the Glory
Continuing to read in Ezekiel and it’s got me thinking about the temple. The bottom line is — after all the specs and details of how to build it, how to furnish it, and who can enter it — that … Continue reading

A New Testament Command from an Old Testament Source
I think if I’m honest with myself, I don’t expect a lot from reading Chronicles. Not just because of the seemingly endless, and sometimes to me pointless — though ALL Scripture is God-breathed and profitable (2Tim. 3:16) — genealogies that … Continue reading
The FROM and FOR of the People of God (2016 Remix)
It’s a short song. Less than a hundred words parsed into eight verses packaged into four stanzas. It’s a short song about a great God to be sung by a redeemed people. The God of Jacob is the focus of … Continue reading
Shiloh Remembered (2011 Rerun)
I’ll take lesser-remembered dwelling places of God for 500, Alex. . . . What is Shiloh? Found myself hovering over Joshua 19 this morning. In particular, the thrice repeated reminder that when they initially entered the land of promise, the … Continue reading
A Morning Smorgasbord
One of those “sampler” mornings when all four readings provide a little something to chew on and create a wonderful smorgasbord of combined flavor. In Luke, Jesus tells the parable of the sower and the seed. “Listen up,” says Jesus, … Continue reading

Rerun Week – Day 2

Building the House
Okay, it may be an Old Testament declaration but, with a slight, two-letter modification, I think it would be fit for a New Testament t-shirt. Back story: “The adversaries of Judah and Benjamin have heard that the returned exiles are … Continue reading

Temple Revival (2017 Rerun)
Some thoughts from this day in my reading plan 5 years ago . . . ——————— Two thoughts as I hover over the account of revival in Judah under King Hezekiah . . . First, revival happens where God’s house … Continue reading

An Ode to the Church
It’s a fact thing based on a faith thing through an overflowing grace thing. That’s what I’m picking up this morning from what’s being laid down in Psalm 84. It’s a psalm about the courts of the LORD. A hymn … Continue reading
