Going for a Walk

1779) At my house, all I have to say is the word walk, and my little dog goes crazy. He’ll jump around, often in a circle, and make his way right to the door. I have often thought how funny it would be if we heard the word walk, and we responded in that way.

Coping with Fear

1778) Fear is a powerful thing. It can dominate our hearts, minds, souls and bodies. It can mean the difference between success and failure. It has the potential of taking control of every aspect of our lives, but it doesn’t have to. One thing that has helped me battle fear is 2 Timothy 1:7. It

Empathy

1777) When a friend or loved-one is going through great difficulties, it rarely helps to say, I know how you feel. But, do you? It’s impossible to know completely how someone else feels. Even if you’ve gone through a similar circumstance because you have not walked in the history of their shoes. You didn’t grow

Two Gates

1776) Sometimes, a fresh way to meditate on Scripture is to combine two truths found within the pages of God’s word. Today, I’d like to think about two gates. We can find the first one in Matthew 7:13. Here, Jesus tells us there is a wide gate that many go through and this road leads

Testing

1775) There are all kinds of tests. When something is wrong, they test your vehicle. There are medical tests we have to take. There are trials that come our way that test what we’re comprised of but there is at least one more test found in 1 John 4:1.   Here, John reminds us we

Dim Reflections

1774) As I read and meditate on God’s word, there are so many things I don’t fully (or even partially) understand. I have found through the years that this is okay. Why? 1 Corinthians 13:12 tells us our understanding of God and his spiritual realm is like looking into a mirror and only seeing a

I Brought You

1773) I heard recently something that has rooted in my mind. It was God saying, “I have everything I need, but I want you.” Exodus 19:4 says something similar. It refers to the fact that God led his people out of Egypt and brought them to himself. It’s vital I remember God came for me.

What God Sees

1772) Do you ever wonder what God sees when he looks down upon the earth? If you have, what do you think he sees? I think the answer to this question lies in our perception of God. Does God first see all the evil in the world? Does he first see all the love? I

Mind Games

1771) Among other things, I’ve been blessed with the gift of imagination. I can reproduce things I see in my head. Story ideas, classroom activities, “Minute” devotions and more. What’s bad about a fruitful imagination is I reproduce things I see in my head. Isn’t that what I just said? Yes, it is. My imagination

Being Different

1770) Whether or not we acknowledge it, we all want to fit in. The only thing that is different is the degree to which we do. Wanting to fit in isn’t necessarily a bad thing; it really depends on what specific fitting in we wish to pursue. In Numbers 14:24, God tells Caleb he will
