October 23, 2023
We talk about our faith everyday. We lean on our faith to get through everyday. Our faith gives us hope. But what is Faith really?In Hebrews it tells us;“Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.”Hebrews 11:1 That’s it! It’s believing in something we canno...
undeserved-graceOctober 13, 2023
I don’t know about you, but I get the “I don’t deserve this...” feeling a lot when I think about what God has done for me and my life. His salvation alone can be bewildering at times. It’s the opinion we have about ourselves and our past or present. You see, we have one set of convictions about o...
graceOctober 12, 2023
One of the things I think about a lot is the grace that God has shown me. Like in the song, “I was blind but now I see..”. But no matter how grateful I am, I still have the moments when I think back on my life to times that make me cringe. I look back and realize no matter how hard I tried, I mad...
gods-loveOctober 9, 2023
Almost everyday I like to look back at what I wrote and what we were talking about in the past years. It’s hard to believe I’ve been at this now since 2018. I am still humbled by the fact that you’re still here. Amazing really...so thank you. Anyhow, this is a throwback to two years ago. I rememb...
forgivenessOctober 5, 2023
Since I love the subject, I kind of want to stay on forgiveness a little longer. It seems the world is just out for revenge or quick to blame one party or the next....blah, blah, blah, you get the point. I mean sometimes we might hesitate to forgive someone because we don’t feel very forgiving to...
forgivenessOctober 4, 2023
So, a good friend of mine and I have recently been taking about the idea of forgiveness and I though I’d go back to my favorite subject again and talk about it. It’s the root of our salvation, so why not keep it in the forefront of our daily talks, right? “Forgiven people should be forgiving peop...
justificationSeptember 25, 2023
“Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Through him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that s...
friendshipAugust 9, 2023
Have you ever had a friend share bad news or their struggles with you and you don’t know what to say? Me too…“He who withholds kindness from a friend forsakes the fear of the Almighty.”Job 6:14 In the Bible we are told that during Job’s time of grieving, his three friends came to mourn with him a...
prayerAugust 7, 2023
“Nobody stands as tall as a Christian on his knees”I love this anonymous quote. It reminds me to spend time on my knees and thank the Lord for all his blessings and forgiveness. I need it. And because I need it (forgiveness), and because he gave it, I am filled with His grace. God has me covered...
gods-graceJuly 21, 2023
In 2 Corinthians 12:9 God says, “my grace is sufficient for you”. I feel like this is a message for us to the answers we seek. What I mean is we pray for God to remove certain things from our lives and sometimes it feels like He’s not answering. But what if He has already answered us with a hidde...
sufferingJuly 20, 2023
Yesterday I talked about the “thorn” that was placed in Paul’s side or his flesh as it were. You got one of those in you? A thorn is something that seems so small but, in reality, comes to occupy and consume all of our thoughts.Our thorns...these are the financial difficulties that seem to persis...
graceJuly 17, 2023
So I talk about finding peace and serenity a lot. I sign off with “Grace wins” everyday. So I thought we’d talk about the Grace. Grace is, as the acronym states, God’s riches at Christ’s expense. Grace is what opens the door to salvation. And just as grace precedes salvation, grace also always pr...
shameJuly 11, 2023
So talking about the hiding from our emotions and the “I’m fine” lie, what about when we have wronged God and ourselves? You know what I’m talking about, we’ve failed or been disobedient to God so we hide from him…like he can’t see us. I’ve slid out of sight before because I was ashamed of myself...
forgivenessJuly 7, 2023
The longer I live, the more I get surprised by people. By surprised, I mean hurt. What really sucks is no matter how righteous we think we are, at least for me, I will forgive them but some times hang onto a feeling of, “I forgive you, but you don’t deserve it!” Ever had that thought? You probabl...
forgivenessJuly 3, 2023
Today you may have a specific person in mind that you need to forgive. Some of us have had very painful things happen to us, even a long time ago, that need to be forgiven. Forgiveness is truly freedom for our hearts, and peace for our soul. But aside from being able to forgive and put major issu...
compassionJune 30, 2023
You ever just lose it for a moment when you’ve “had enough”? I do sometimes and the worst part is, we usually take it out on the ones we love the most. Thankfully, I am quick to realize when I’ve lost it and I’ve learn to ask for forgiveness. I’m not sure what causes us to lose our compassion oth...
spiritual-disciplineJune 27, 2023
There are no shortcuts to fully living for Christ. This is a battle. To return to Proverbs, “Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life” Prayer, worship, meditation, Scripture memory, are all part of nurturing the inner life of our hearts.More than anything else, we must r...
graceJune 22, 2023
You know, I started talking about “doing good” yesterday and asked that we find the why behind our works. I want to dig a little more and discuss our efforts. You see, far to often people think they can earn their way into Heaven by simply doing good. While that’s nice and all, there will be many...
shameful-thoughtsJune 12, 2023
Ok, I really want to talk about something that has been eating at me for some time...some of my thoughts. You know, the ones you’re ashamed of or the ones you would never say out loud...or sometimes out of frustration you do. I mean, no kidding, sometimes I am completely ashamed at some of the cr...
judging-othersJune 7, 2023
It sure is easy see the speck in somebody else’s eye. But the plank in our own? What plank? Why do we do that? “Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you. Why do you see the speck that is in y...
self-righteousnessJune 6, 2023
Alright, I will say it first, I can sometimes be self righteous. I’m pretty sure we all can if we are being honest. It’s almost human nature. I’m fact, Jesus knew it. You see, to be self righteous simply means we think we’ve met God’s standards in our own eyes. When was the last time you said or...
weaknessJune 1, 2023
Welcome to June…talk about time flying! Wow!The last few days I’ve been reading about our strength in weakness and failure. In 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 it tells us,“But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more glad...
loveMay 22, 2023
Hope er’body had a great weekend! As I turn on the news, it seems the world stayed crazy...oh, well.Listen, it’s no secret that our world seems more divided than ever. Whether it’s political parties that can’t agree on a nation’s budget or special interest groups that spew hatred toward each othe...
graceMay 19, 2023
As you already know if you are on this devotional, I close with “be nice, Grace wins”. I think we all know and hopefully understand the “be nice”, but what about the “Grace wins”?Well, think about our lives and the experiences we have all learned from. Some of us have endured traumatic events in...
