A Tale of Three pictures

The ephemeral beauty of unusual pink lilies: I’d call them rose-coloured, but every one of my former students would have a facepalm moment at such poor style! The blooms burst into glory today; yet already are showing signs that their exquisite splendour is transient. I can’t stop looking at them. Despite their impermanence, they make me happy. I stopped at the shops on my way home: a faint…

He Has Shown Thee, Oh Soul

God Has Shown Thee, My Soul God has shown thee, oh told thee, my soul What is good, what He wants, has not He? But to do what is just, show mercy, be kind, And with God on thy path walk humbly. God has spoken to thee through His Word, Does He not ever speak through His Law, His commands ever speak and teach us His ways, And tell us walk humbly with God. God has shown thee, Oh shows thee,…

New Beginnings require a change of perspective. Are you ready?

It was interesting this morning as I turned to check out the verse of the day and found it was Romans 12:2 which says: ‘And do not be conformed to this world [any longer with its superficial values and customs], but be transformed and progressively changed [as you mature spiritually] by the renewing of your mind [focusing on godly values and ethical attitudes], so that you may prove [for…

Plan Wisely and Don’t Worry

I have a worrier’s heart. It’s a weakness in me. I think I was born this way. My wife generally does not worry. It’s a strength in her. I think she was born that way. I think more people are like me than like my wife. Because of my mental proclivity to worry, I have to discipline my mind and control my thoughts. I find it’s easier for me to do when I’m consistently in God’s Word every day and all…

The First Lie: “Did God Really Say…?”

Genesis 3:1 introduces us to a pivotal moment in human history. The Bible says, “The serpent was the shrewdest of all the wild animals the Lord God had made. One day he asked the woman, ‘Did God really say you must not eat the fruit from any of the trees in the garden?’” This seemingly innocent question set the stage for humanity’s fall into sin. It wasn’t a blatant denial of God’s command but a…

Isaiah 43: 19- Can I Point You To The Promised Land?

My devotion today isn’t your typical Christmas post. The devotion, from Worthy Devotions, and the verse, Isaiah 43: 19, is very special to me. I will explain in a moment why it is so special to me. However, I know that this time of year can be very difficult for some people because of lost loved ones, financial hardship and the like. So, that is the reason I am sharing this with you right now. I…

The Peace of Christmas

As we move through the Advent season, one of the most profound gifts we are invited to reflect on is peace. Yet, if we’re honest, Christmas often feels like anything but peaceful. Between the demands of shopping, family gatherings, and year-end responsibilities, this time of year can become a whirlwind of activity that leaves us feeling anything but calm. But what if we paused? What if, in the…

November 23rd-This sacrifice on our behalf, if we will but accept Him, creates us as brand new

2 Corinthians 5: 17Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. 18Now all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, 19namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the…

Silent, Immovable Reminders of Hope

Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known. Psalms‬ ‭19‬:‭2‬ I love the mountains. A few years ago we took a trip from our midwest, relatively flat area to the mountains. Driving through one pass in particular, the mountains on either side of us nearly blocked the sky. They were huge. One of the things I thought of as I gazed at these immense rocks is how they…

A Garden And A Path

In January of this year (2023) the Lord was leading me to work on an album of original prayersongs tentatively titled Paths of Praise Christian Worship Songs. Suddenly He interrupted that work which I was completely focused on and switched directions. He asked me to create an album of traditional hymns as a gift for His children. When the Lord changes my focus on a project it completely humbles…

A week with two beginnings. Let's start strong and launch from the second one.

It’s an interesting week as today gets us started and then on what is the midweek or as some call it Humpday it’s the start of a new year. So, let’s start the week with love, intaking from God so that we can overflow into the world around us. Let’s get so filled up, powered up, and moving that when we get to Wednesday which is New Year’s Day, we can launch into 2025 with the right mindset, the…

Trusting God in Unfair Situations

Let’s face it: life is not fair. Sometimes it is unfair to our disadvantage, but at other times, it is unfair to our advantage. It is interesting how we are prone to cry foul when life is unfair to our disadvantage but are more than glad to accept and rejoice when it is unfair to our benefit. This inconsistency highlights the human tendency to be self-centered and myopic rather than God-focused…
