Enter In

Lord, you alone are my portion and my cup; you make my lot secure. The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance. Psalm 16:5-6 NIV A delightful inheritance awaits you in Jesus Christ. Whether you believe it yet or not, God has wonderful plans for you. He […]

A Celebration of Grace

“Let this Messiah, this king of Israel, come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe.” Those crucified with him also heaped insults on him. Mark 15:32 At times I have difficulty grasping the depths of God’s love. While His own people spit at Him and mocked Him, Jesus silently bore the […]

Distress Call

In my distress I called upon the Lord; to my God I cried for help. From his temple he heard my voice, and my cry to him reached his ears. Psalm 18:6 It’s the unexpected things that send us reeling. Extraordinary circumstances that reach into an ordinary day and make it anything but. Like when […]

Seated in the Temple

He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be greatly shaken. Psalm 62:2 God has a way of shaking things up so that only He and His Word remain. And when the dust settles, many who thought they’d be standing will find themselves scattered among the rubble. A great shaking […]

Cultivating the Seed

And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise. Galatians 3:29 NKJV Life begins with a seed. In case you’re wondering where seed comes from, “The seed is the word of God” (Luke 8:11). God speaks and establishes all things by His Word. Every seed spoken into existence […]

The Other Prodigal

Whoever says he is in the light and hates his brother is still in darkness. 1 John 2:9 You’re probably familiar with the parable of the prodigal son. Jesus told of a son who demanded his inheritance from his father and journeyed to a far country, only to squander it away with wild living. He […]

Love That Heals

See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. 1 John 3:1 NIV Our hearts cry out to be known. Sin keeps us hiding from one […]

Creation Knows Its King

The Lord reigns; he is robed in majesty; the Lord is robed; he has put on strength as his belt. Yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved. Psalm 93:1  In the beginning God said, “Let there be…” and there was. Wonder still grips my soul at the thought of it. God—Father, Son, […]

Exposed…And Set Free!

Where shall I go from your Spirit? Or where shall I flee from your presence? Psalm 139:7 We spend a lot of time hiding. Who we truly are. What we really think. How we really feel. Our hiding began the moment seeds of sin embedded in man’s heart. Those seeds bore immediate, unwelcome fruit. Shame. […]
