- 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)

His or Mine? Yes.
It’s two words in a somewhat familiar psalm that have captured my attention this morning. Two words. Which I’ve underlined with a purple color-pencil as they seem to be a command to obey. But to be honest, not quite sure … Continue reading

To Know Him Is To Trust Him
It’s a song of thanksgiving and praise. A lyric of gladness and exultation. Not because the songwriter had not known oppression or times of trouble, but because he had. Not because he had not been needy, but because he had … Continue reading

The Faultfinder (2016 Remix)
It’s a line that I don’t ever want to look back over my shoulder and see that I’ve crossed. The “fault” line. The line of finding fault with my God and Father. The line of reproving the One who is … Continue reading

For You I Wait
It really couldn’t have gone any worse. The people believed Moses when he told them that “the LORD had visited the people of Israel and that He had seen their affliction” (Ex. 4:31a). They bought into the plan, Moses and … Continue reading
It’s Still a Promise
I push back from my desk and realize afresh that this is why, by God’s grace, I purpose to read through the bible every year. It’s because I forget what I shouldn’t. Even well-known passages and verses can fade from … Continue reading

Appointed to This
I’m gonna guess it’s easier to accept trials and hardships if we somehow think they are random and just part of living in a fallen world. After all, everyone goes through seasons of suffering, so why shouldn’t I? Life’s gonna … Continue reading

Three Years
Another reading in Judges. Another story of power. Power in the world’s way. And what’s caused me to pause this morning is that it seemed to work, and seemed to work for a pretty long time — three years. Three … Continue reading

Keep It Cool
Up until this morning, I would have said it was one of my favorite psalms. But a light goes on as I hover over David’s song and I realize that it’s more like a psalm that contains some of my … Continue reading

The Course of My Life is in Your Power
The words jump off the page because they are so very familiar, indicating that Psalm 31 is a Messianic psalm. Into Your hand I entrust my spirit . . . (Psalm 31:5a CSB) Jesus spoke such words from the cross … Continue reading
