Forgotten?

Tuesday, June 17th, 2008

Isaiah 49:15 NIV “Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you!
49:16 See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are ever before me.
Really from the [...]

Broken

Saturday, May 24th, 2008

Jeremiah 2:13 KJV
(13)  For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters, and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.
You’re supposed to read the fine print, and, of course, all the instructions before using. But now, there is such a need to just go [...]

Love’s Prepared Response

Monday, April 7th, 2008

2 Corinthians 2:8 MKJV
(8)  So I beseech you to confirm your love toward him.

     It’s bad enough having to get up in front of a room full of people to sing or play something for their listening enjoyment. For some reason these butterflies take flight down in the stomach, and there is this overwhelming notion [...]

Response

Monday, March 31st, 2008

John 3:16  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
 
Somehow it was ‘love’ at first sight. The magic took place right away as souls were bonded and passions rose high. How could there be anything but a ‘love’ [...]

Love - Christ Life’s Staple

Monday, March 10th, 2008

 1 Corinthians 14:1  Go after a life of love as if your life depended on it–because it does. (The Message)       
It’s easy to love a big juicy steak, Rudy’s barbeque, Texmex, Blue Bell ice-cream, Cinnabon’s, coffee, etc. You could even come to the conclusion that there just isn’t any life without one of these things. But, in [...]

Good

Thursday, February 7th, 2008

Romans 12:21  Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
It was only natural. If you reasonably consider the situation you would have to agree that it was a totally justified response. I was, after all, minding my own business with no evil intent whatsoever, and it wasn’t until I was so rudely [...]

The Chase

Monday, October 22nd, 2007

Luke 22:42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.
My son had a friend recently present to him some discrepancies he had discovered about what God is supposed to be like. He said something to the effect that if God really loves us [...]

More Than

Tuesday, October 16th, 2007

Romans 8:35  Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
:36  As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
:37  Nay, in all these things we are more [...]

Courts

Monday, September 17th, 2007

Psa 84:2  My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of the LORD: my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God.
What is it about the courts of the Lord, and what is there to be so passionate about when thinking on the place where God lives? Aren’t we just supposed to [...]

For A Day

Tuesday, August 7th, 2007

Psalms 16:5 My choice is you, GOD, first and only. And now I find I’m your choice!
:6 You set me up with a house and yard. And then you made me your heir!

It really is this most incredible love story, and we are all writing our own chapter in it.
Haylie was on [...]
