No Exemption

1812) When I was young, there was a toy called Weebles. They were an egg-shaped toy whose jingle was Weebles wobble but they don’t fall down. You could place them on the floor, hold one end down, and when you let go, they always popped right back up.   This toy comes to mind when I read

Rock

1811) Where I live in coastal Maine, we have acres of blueberry barrens. The wild Maine blueberries flourish in our well-drained soil. There are some hindrances to their cultivation, however, and one of them is the number of rocks that more than pepper the area. When driving by, you’ll see piles of rocks surrounding the barrens

The Key to Safety

1810) There are many places in the Bible that state we are safe with God. When I read verses like Psalm 4:8, I can sometimes feel confused. The verse tells us we can lie down in peace because we dwell in God’s safety. Why do I feel confusion? Because there have been many times when

Hail to Outcasts

1809) I have always rooted for the underdog. My heart finds these individuals quickly. Those who have been rejected or made to feel like an outsider experience great pain. I’m not the only one who cheers for those who don’t fit in; God does too. In Jeremiah 30:17, God tells us He will restore the outcasts

Insignificant Can Be Significant

1808) For those of you who are or have been married, you know how significant insignificants can be. The empty paper towel or toilet paper holders, the clinking of a spoon in a coffee cup. You get the idea. If these examples don’t bug you, it’s easy to think, Boy, that’s a lot of energy being

Deceptive

  1807) Every once-in-a -while, we’ll watch a show that features people looking to buy a place on the beach or some other desirable place. When I watch these, I’ll hear many of them say, We’ve worked hard for this opportunity. When I hear them say this, sometimes I’ll smirk and think, I work very hard,

Rationalization

1806) As I read through the Gospels, I’m amazed by Jesus’ miracles. Sometimes my faith is being stretched when I have thought, If only I could see one of Jesus’ miracles, it would help my faith. But would it?  Jesus revealed in the parable of The Rich Man and Lazarus (Luke 16:19-31), that even though some

The Value of Reflection

1805) Continually looking back on your life can be detrimental. It would be similar to the usefulness of continually looking in the rearview mirror while driving. There is some past reflecting that can be helpful. God demonstrated to Moses on Mt. Sinai in Exodus 19:4. Here, God was reminding Moses of all he did to get

Models

1804) All of us model our behavior to anyone who comes in contact with us. This is not a situation where we can choose some people to model for and others not to. We are modeling when we talk, drive, shop, hang out and more. Because we are models 24/7, Proverbs 20:7 reminds us our children,

Not By Chance

1803) Is there any such thing as chance? I’ve pondered this question, as have many theologians through the years. I’m not sure what answer many of them would give, so I’ll have to use mine here. I think you have to make a differentiation between chance and choice. Chance seems to be something that’s out of
