Get Off Your Back

1533) In the time I was raised, the church seemed to adopt the notion that if you were a committed Christian; you needed to be responsible. Sounds good, doesn’t it? After all, you need to keep watching your boundaries, choices and attitudes because you want to be faithful to God. I wholeheartedly agree with this.

Is God Good?

1532) I have a confession to make. When I read the Bible, sometimes I shake my head. For example, Psalm 34. In this Psalm, David tells us to praise God all the time (vs. 1). God is great (vs. 3). He delivers us from all our fears (vs. 4). God delivers him from all his

Watch for It

1531) Someone recently showed me a video where a bunch of people are passing basketballs around. Half of them wore black shirts and the other half wore white one. The video instructs you to count how many times the people wearing white pass the ball. If you do it successfully, you’ll count 15 passes BUT,

Against the Grain

1530) I have heard and read of people who believe if you are a follower of God, you live in a sort-of spiritual bubble. You have blinders on your eyes and you live in a make-believe world where God loves everyone and his children just skip around spiritual maypoles in joy and delight. I can

What Seems Isn’t Always What Is

1529) I have mentioned many times in these minute devotions that grace is a subject I struggle with. It’s easy to say, Yes, I understand grace. It’s receiving something good when I deserve bad. Though I struggle a lot with understanding why God offers this to me, I also struggle with what grace implies. If

Quiet Choices

1538) When I approach most things I read, my mind categorizes the information. Some words go into the, “Ah, I’m just in this for the ride,” file and I sit back and enjoy what I read. With other things, I’ll move them into the file of “I need to ponder this a little more”. And,

When It’s All About You

1537) We live in a wonderful country where we can speak our minds and support or protest things we like or don’t like. We can join wonderful causes that seek to make others’ lives better and richer, but have you ever seen individuals who claim they are doing something for a good cause when it’s

Do You Want to be Healed?

1536) The passage of John 5 used to confuse me. Here, in the first 15 verses, Jesus speaks to and heals a man who had been lame for 38 years. No, it’s not the healing that was confusing to me; instead, it was something Jesus says in verse 6. In this verse, Jesus walks over

Bodies, Old and New

1535) As children, our bodies (usually) grow bigger and stronger. When this growth and strength reaches its peak, our bodies begin to shrink and weaken. Is there anything we can do about this? Not really. We can keep fit, giving this degeneration a slower pace but, ultimately, our bodies will wear out. Paul addresses this

Down or Up?

1534) Many years ago, we had a special 2-day “workshop” for all our students at the high school where I taught. There were many things about it that were very good and one comes to mind as I read 1 Corinthians 15:33. “Don’t be fooled by those who say such things, for “bad company corrupts
