A Hard Yet Wonderful Truth

1876) Proverbs 34:10 reminds us of an important promise God gives his children. It tells us those who seek the Lord lack no good thing. It sounds wonderful, but if you pause and think about this; it becomes a hard truth.   We may know God provides all we need, but it’s the “good” part

Dependability

1799) We all are known for certain things. Sometimes it’s positive. Yes, he’s a hard worker. Yes, she’s a great listener. Sometimes it’s negative. No, he does a job half-way and then never finishes it. No, you better not confide in her because then everyone will know what you told her in confidence.   Jesus

Choices

1875) When working with my young scholars, I have found that giving choices to them works better than simply telling them they need to do what I ask. How it effectively works is, you can choose to do this assignment now like I’ve asked or you can choose to do it in study hall instead of

In Other Words

1874) I was reading a well-known verse recently; one so well-known I sometimes don’t stop and reflect. The verse is Jeremiah 29:11. When I stop and meditate on verses, I often look them up in their original language (Hebrew, in this case) and look up what those words mean. Here’s what my study discovered: For I

Image is Everything

1873) I was in a doctor’s office recently and there was a sign that said the office will not tolerate abuse. This both surprised me and didn’t at the same time. What have we come to that we need signs like this one in offices and businesses? Where has dignity and respect gone? If you were

What Encouragement Can Do

1872) When I was in high school, one of my favorite things to do in English class was creative writing assignments. Here I could let my imagination flow. I still have some of my work where my teachers wrote on them what a talented writer I was becoming. College kind of squelched this because of

Hurt Examined

1871) There are difficult things in this life that can be overwhelming. These can fill our lives with hurt and can include abandonment, betrayal, deceit, indifference and more. The question that shows up to me in these situations is, how do I make the pain go away? The hard answer is, I can’t. So, if I

Feelings and Choices

1870) Sometimes it’s easy to assume our feelings are good or bad. If this were true, then we should be able to prevent them from existing within. What makes this issue sticky is how we act in response to these feelings.   Psalm 13 is a good example of the feelings of David versus his

Suffering Acknowledged

1869) Many of us know when a friend is suffering, telling them you know how they feel isn’t often helpful. But when the one suffering knows you have an intimate understanding of it, there is comfort. This person gets it. They know how I feel. This identification is not subject-specific; it is not a comparison

New Wine

1868) The old ways of doing things are sometimes hard to shake. Should electronics be solely used in schools? Should new songs be sung in a church? Should missionary work be done as it has for the last century?   There is comfort in the familiar, but some of our old ways Jesus describes as
