As I read my devotional, Psalm 51, this morning, I couldn’t help but think of some of the women of the Bible. This Psalm of David, tells how he felt after Nathan, God’s prophet, came to him and showed him how he had sinned. We know a little bit of how David felt by this… Continue reading Hearts

After a beautiful weather yesterday, last night we were reminded of the power that God has through nature. Our little cabin is on top of a hill, and we were able to watch the storm containing what they though was a tornado. We could see both sides of the sky converging on each other. It… Continue reading Power

Have you ever met someone who is gorgeous, and after talking with them, they turn out to be unattractive. On the other hand, have you ever met someone who wasn’t physically attractive, but after talking and getting to know them, they become beautiful or handsome in your sight? Where do we find beauty? In others?… Continue reading Beauty

There’s something to be said about silence. It is calming. It makes us hear things clearer. It makes us see God more. But there are some people who do not like the quiet and silence.

As you know, if you’ve read this blog, I like music even though like Barney Fife, I cannot “sing a lick.” I do like some of the new songs played on Christian radio today, but none of them can compare to some of the old hymns I grew up hearing and singing.

Yesterday at worship I was reminded of worth. Only this was probably not the kind you’re thinking. There are different kinds of worth.… Continue reading Worth

“If you’re not scared, you’re not paying attention.” Think about this for a minute. Are you scared? How scared are you? If you aren’t scared, why not? Are we looking inside ourselves enough to be scared? Are we looking at ourselves too much? Are we not looking at ourselves enough? Yesterday, I had an interesting… Continue reading Are you scared yet?

We all search for something sometime in our lives. We search for people, lost things and answers. Sometimes our searching turns into nothing and sometimes our searching yields a great find. The most important search anyone can ever do is for God. I don’t know about you, but I see people everyday searching for Him.… Continue reading Searching
