- 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 Key
Paul turns the tables on the Corinthians as he wraps up his letter to them. While they have been examining him and the authenticity of his apostleship, he now writes, “Examine yourselves.” He sits them down and says, “Test yourselves.” … Continue reading

His Dove
Hovering over Psalm 74 this morning. It’s one of those “why?” songs to God. Why have You left us? Why does Your “anger smoke against” us? (v. 1) It’s also one of those “How long?” songs (v.10). Given that the … Continue reading
Enriched in Christ
It’s the air we breathe. It’s the water we swim in. It’s second nature, we barely give it a thought. But, if I’m picking up what Paul is laying down this morning, it’s the riches of God. I’m reading in … Continue reading
Always Facing the Glory
They couldn’t get close — something I read said about 3 football fields away — but they could get centered. Too dangerous to be adjacent, but too important not to be aligned. While they couldn’t go face-to-face with the glory … Continue reading

Added to the Lord
It’s the second time I’ve encountered the phrase as I’ve been reading through Acts, but this morning it popped. There were some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who on coming to Antioch spoke to the Hellenists also, preaching … Continue reading
Search Me O’ God . . . ‘Cause I’m Finding Nothing!
It’s complicated. Yup, that’s the story of Job. A man who God Himself repeatedly declares to be “a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil” (Job 1:8, 2:3). And yet, we know that there is … Continue reading

His Desire
I’ve said it before, gonna say it again: when it comes to the Scriptures, repetition is roaring, the same thing in succession is shouting, an echo is an exclamation point. Get the idea? And even more so, I think, when … Continue reading

The Beloved of My Soul
The heart of God. That’s what jumped off the page this morning. And in a kind of unexpected place. Book of the Bible? Jeremiah. Chapter in this prophet’s oracles? Twelve. Context for his words? God’s judgment of His people. Impact … Continue reading
Sharers in Christ
Reminded this morning that there is a world of difference between being a spectator and being a participant. Between simply watching something and wholly sharing in it. Between the act of receiving a gift and the activity of engaging with … Continue reading
To Me Be the Glory
Okay . . . I guess there’s glory, and then, there’s glory. Glory we give and, according to Paul this morning, glory we get. I know, sounds weird to even think about “to me be the glory”, but get used … Continue reading
