"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 [...]

I am currently participating in the Wednesday night women’s study “Becoming A Vessel God Can Use.” This has been a huge blessing to me so far and I am looking forward to the things that God will continue to reveal to me throughout the course of this study.
This week’s focus is “Getting To Know Your Potter.” [...]

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 [...]

Geo-caching
This weekend, we discovered a new (and fairly inexpensive!) way to entertain ourselves and our family. It’s called “geo-caching,” and with the right tools, it can be a really fun adventure. Basically, you visit and set up an account at www.geocaching.com . Through this website, you can either search for a place to hunt for [...]
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…
How important is Christianity? I mean, does the fact that [...]
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 [...]

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, [...]
