A Question of Uncertainty
on June 10th, 2022
“If you remain in Me and My words remain in you, ask whatever you want and it will be done for you.” (John 15:7)A good parent would never give a child a gift that would intentionally cause harm. You never see parents give knives to their children as presents. Why is that? Because they would hurt themselves or someone else. Now, a young man might need a pocketknife, per se, but a five-year-old—not ...  Read More

The One Who Returned
on June 9th, 2022
“But one of them, seeing that he was healed, returned and, with a loud voice, gave glory to God…Then Jesus said, “Were not 10 cleansed? Where are the nine? Didn’t any return to give glory to God except this foreigner?’” (Luke 17:15-18).There is power in thankfulness. When you do a favor for someone and they are genuinely thankful, your heart feels full, doesn’t it? It’s a wonderful feeling when so...  Read More

on June 8th, 2022

Rather, He gives us good gifts when w...  Read More

Down to the Heart of It

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, and your ways are not My ways.” This is the Lord’s declaration. “For as heaven is higher than earth, so My ways are higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts.’” (Isaiah 55:8-9) Kids have a tendency to think that material items fix everything. Ice cream fixes sadness, a game fixes boredom, and a toy makes you happy.Most everyone grows out of th...  Read More

What’s in a Name?
on June 4th, 2022
“Jabez was more honorable than his brothers. His mother named him Jabez and said, “I gave birth to him in pain.” (1 Chronicles 4:9)In Jesus’ time, people often named their children a particular name because it sounded like another word, and names were very intentional. We read in 1 Chronicles chapter 4 that Jabez’s name was given to him because his mother was in extreme pain when she gave birth to...  Read More
