A Strange Dog’s Ears

823) I have always had a healthy (?) respect for dogs. If I see one, especially a dog larger than my dachshund, I am cautious about how I approach it or how I act when it approaches me. Why? Because I do not know if the dog is friendly. Proverbs 26:17 tells us that pulling

His View

822) Sometimes it can seem like the “bad people” around us often get away with things, but when they don’t, how do you respond? I would be lying if I said that I don’t feel a certain satisfaction when someone who has treated me poorly gets knocked down a notch or two, but this isn’t

Human Chameleons

821) I live in an area in our country that has a lot of wildlife. It’s amazing how many members of the animal kingdom have such wonderful camouflage. They show up in different habitats and change to suit the area. Chameleons, from a different part of our country, are another example of creatures that change

Neither a Borrower nor a Lender Be

Neither a Borrower nor a Lender Be 820) Borrowing is addressed in the Bible. Once such example is in Proverbs 22:7, which plainly says that a borrower is a slave to the lender. Kind of a no-brainer, right? Well, I got to thinking about this and wonder could this also apply to our relationship with

Role Play

819) Whenever we ask God for direction, strength or guidance, we always have a role to play. This role might include being faithful or grateful. Yet Proverbs 21:31 makes it clear to us that even though there are battles God will win for us, he expects us to “ready our horses” for battle. Often, our

Gasoline is Expensive

818) We are living in times when gasoline is very expensive. What used to be a reasonable price at the pump is now much higher. While at the gas pumps recently, it came to me that there is another type of “gasoline” that is also very expensive. It is the substance of our response toward

Modern Martyrs

817) There have been many throughout the ages who have been martyrs, those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in giving up their lives for what they believe. Many of Jesus’ closest followers were later put to death for their beliefs. Yet, when I think about this subject, I realize that not all martyrs are

On My Word

816) I read somewhere years ago that the prudent thing to do when reciting your marriage vows is to keep your fingers crossed behind your back. I don’t think the statement was meant seriously but; it makes me think. When I was young, I had a black and white view of vows. You make them;

Obedience and Insight

815) Proverbs 20:12 tells us that ears that hear and eyes that see are gifts from God. Ears that hear and eyes that see what? This verse could refer to physical hearing and seeing, but the original language of the Old Testament has a more specific definition. This hearing is more like obedience and this

Smooth Talker

806) Old sayings often are grounded in wisdom. For example, a chain is only as strong as its weakest link. Proverbs 20:11 reminds me of another important saying. Actions speak louder than words. If you’re unsure of another’s character and what your involvement should be with them, look at what they do, not solely on
