The word of God is living and active . . . (Hebrews 4:12)

The Lord Who Does All These Things

It’s a Mystery (2016 Remix)
Oh, how I needed this today. Some thoughts from 10 years ago . . . Double blessing . . . it brought to mind a video clip from the distant past which introduced the Martins to the Gaither-o-sphere . . … Continue reading
Firm Faith, Firm Footing (2016 Remix)
Only the fourth time this month I have had the space after my morning readings to type a few thoughts. It’s been a busy, busy month. And even this morning, after a sleepless night so far, there’s not much capacity … 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
The Lord Knows

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
