I’ve been preparing devotions for my local Community Bible Study Leader’s Council and have been focusing on the topics of Worship and Prayer. One of the points from last week was the importance of ‘praying yourself up’ prior to coming to class, going to church and prior to spending time in His Word. An obvious, but [...]

Are feeling that God has withdrawn from you today? this week? this month? this year? This is how Floyd McClung, the senior pastor of Metro Church, Kansas describes the feeling… You wake up one morning and all your spiritual feelings are gone. You pray, but nothing happens. You rebuke the devil, but it doesn’t change [...]

The past couple of Sunday’s as I was up early, eating breakfast, putsing around and getting ready for church, I turned on the TV only to find Creflo Dollar preaching on fear. I was interested. Creflo is brilliant at keeping your attention, at giving you memorable one liners and deep scriptural support for what he preaches. I just want [...]
Surprised by the wind…

I was out yesterday for a quick walk. I left the house later than I wanted, thus the heat of the day had begun to set in (a bit different day that the photo above… the photo is the type of weather that I LIKE to walk in ). I took along Ginger – our 3-year-old Labradoodle [...]

A strong wind was blowing and the waters grew rough. When they had rowed three or three and a half miles, they saw Jesus approaching the boat, walking on the water; and they were terrified. But he said to them, “It is I; don’t be afraid.” This creation is a wonderful reminder of how we [...]

There is a song that we sing in worship that I have found so rich with meaning and so moving that I can’t get it out of my head. It’s a song by Hillsong called Lead Me to the Cross. As I continue to mull over the words and sing the song in my head, [...]

The weather has heated up here in the Northeast and the moisture in the air is high… sorta uncomfortable… but endurable if you can get your outside chores done early in the morning before the sun has a chance to completely stoke up the furnace. For me, I really hate high humidity and great heat… unless [...]

So… how long does it take to you pull it together in the morning? How long does it take you to shower, primp, dress and get ready for the real world? For me, it’s about 45-60 minutes… depending upon my mood and exactly how cooperative my hair is going to be. After that, I am ready [...]

You’ve probably heard your walls creaking when the temperature drops drastically during a cold spell. And you’ve probably heard about the ‘writing on the wall’ – often used as an idiom relating to forecasting a dim future or great demise that is headed your way — which by the way originated in the book of [...]
Are You in the Pit?

I have decided that I love the book of Genesis. I have found it to be full of completely flawed people, just like me, who may or may not have a heart for God, who go through great trials and tribulations, but are still used in amazing ways for His purposes. My Community Bible Study Class has [...]
