"When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted." Matthew 28:17
Even among those that worship there are some that doubt. The faith of those that are sincere, may yet be very weak and wavering. (Matthew Henry)
This is more of a rambling as I try to formulate thoughts on paper to help my devotion [...]

From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets, the name of the Lord is to be praised. Psalm 113:3
“Day four found us waking up at 2:00 AM to make the 2 ½ hour trip up the winding road to the top of Mount Haleakala to an elevation of 10, 077 feet [...]

Packets of Time
For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appeareth for a little time, and then vanishes away James 4:14
Like a sudden wind, the sting of death awakens us to reality. Why is not the question, but rather when. As believers, we see the bigger picture in life and still somehow [...]

Simple Prayer
“And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full”. Matthew 6:5
This is a long read but I ran across this in my [...]

“But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?” Matthew 16:15
I’ve been reading in John 17 and 18 lately. There’s a lot of information in there but one thing that really stood out was when they brought Jesus before Pilate and they wanted him to make the decision to put Jesus to [...]

If you make the Most High your dwelling— even the Lord, who is my refuge— then no harm will befall you, no disaster will come near your tent. For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; Psalm 91:9-11
Today I watched as a young lady’s life was taken in [...]
A WORSHIP-HUNGRY HEART

1 As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, O God. 2 My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God? Psalm 42:1-2
I reflect on some moments of conversation last night…

Abounding In Joy…

This morning’s words are not my own, but rather I have shamelessly pilfered them from a man I admire greatly…Mr. Charles Spurgeon. I ask you to read this very slowly. It was my third time through it before the truth of it really sunk in.
I know how to abound… Phil. 4:12
It is a dangerous thing to [...]
Beauty Beyond Compare

Open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in your law. Psalm 119:18
Wow. Those would be my words to describe the beautiful area of West Virginia we visited. It is a mostly mountainous area packed with miles of beautiful forestry and landscaping; and it just makes me stop and ponder the hand that created [...]
God’s Boolean Logic

And He Himself is the propitiation (the atoning sacrifice) for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world. 1 John 2:2
This morning I found myself dwelling on this verse, but my real thoughts centered on the words propitiation and atonement. Let me throw out some synonyms for a second… reconciliation, [...]
