Wanted

740) Fortunately, (or unfortunately), your idea of God often comes from how He is introduced to you in your early years. If your family placed a priority on getting to know God and His word, it will follow you into adulthood. If you grew up with a horrible concept of Him, then God is not

Misplaced Worship

737) As a teacher, I know the value of using objects to illustrate concepts I’m trying to teach my students. For example, if I were teaching the concept of negative numbers, I would take the kids outside and have one of them dig a hole. Then I would put a yardstick in the hole and

The Hand of God

733) Years ago, I remember a professor at Bible College said, “There are more ‘dos’ in the Bible than ‘don’ts’. If you spend your time doing the ‘dos’ and not doing the ‘don’t’s, you’ll be a dedicated follower of God.” Throughout the Bible, God instructs His people to do things. It may be things of

Wise Guy

723) The other day, I was looking for something and I stumbled across some of my wedding pictures. I smiled as I looked at that young girl, and then I shook my head. If only I could be the person I am now, in that girl’s body. We have the opportunity and responsibility to learn

God Loves When We Don’t Deserve It

660) The life of Joseph, as recorded in Genesis 41, is my all-time favorite one to study with the exception of the life of Jesus. I’ve even named my protagonist, Joseph, in my up-coming novel, The Bottle House, in honor of Jacob’s favorite son. I admire so much of Joseph’s character. If anyone had a

Hatred is Powerful

658) Hatred is powerful. It can motivate, burn, rage and murder and where it is present, it affects all involved and not positively. There have been psychological studies of the effect of hating another being, but you really don’t need to read these. All you have to do is observe this in others. In Genesis

Be Prepared

645)  It is not unusual for a child to ask you why you do certain things. This is a part of learning, brain development and curiosity.  As the child ages, the questions will not be as frequent but are more situation-specific. 1 Peter 3:15 tells us that if we are living by the principles of

Where Are Your Eyes?

640) If you are running a race, looking back over your shoulder will slow you down, at the least, or cause you to fall and keep you from the finish line. So much of my time is looking backward; my history, my choices, and my memories. As I put one foot in front of the

My Statement of Faith

614) There have been several events in my life recently that I’ve had to depend on faith in ways I’ve never had to. I found myself saying to God, “You say the ‘just shall live by faith’ but I’m struggling. Whatever You decide (in these situations), I will accept it, by faith.” Sounds like dedication,

Seeing is Believing, Right?

613) Having grown up in church, I am well-acquainted with the typical “Bible stories.” One of them is the details of an angel visiting Joseph concerning Mary and instructing him to marry her. I might think, No wonder Joseph believed. If an angel came and visited me, I would believe, too. These verses tell us
