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

Purposelessness

1769) Any educator will tell you a sure way to have problems in your classroom is to give your students too much downtime. It’s when they don’t have direction and meaningful tasks, problems arise. I think this same thing can happen with adults. If you don’t feel you have a purpose, you can get restless,

Standing

1768) Some of my female young scholars are discovering romantic love. They will often say to each other, I think I might be falling in love. I smile quietly at my desk, knowing these girls have a limited understanding of this type of love, As I reflect on some of the conversation they had, the

The Bottom Line

1767) I am not just a word enthusiast; I love to find out the origins of the terms we use. For example, “the bottom line” originated in 1832. It was used in accounting, so a business or person knew how much money they had after all debits and credits were added or subtracted. 1 Corinthians

Always vs. Sometimes

1766) Are you dependable? Always? Sometimes? When you say you’ll be somewhere at a specific time, are you? Always? Sometimes? When you are given a task to do, do you do it? Always? Sometimes? Do you keep your word? Always? Sometimes? Consider the people you know. Do they keep their word? Always? Sometimes? Of course,

Stretched

1765) When I was a kid, my brothers had a toy called Stretch Armstrong. It was a type of action figure you were supposed to be able to pull on the arms and they would stretch significantly. Unfortunately, they decided to each take an arm and pull in opposite directions and, of course, they stretched

Two Gardens

1764) Once upon a time, there were two gardens. The first one had luscious fruits, beautiful trees and colorful flowers. The inhabitants of this garden were complete. They had everything they needed, and yet, in a form of ingratitude, these people disobeyed the one rule they had. This was the beginning of a separation between

The Poverty of Comparison

1763) A few years ago, my husband and I visited the Dominican Republic. It was a beautiful place with turquoise water, plentiful fruit and amazing beaches. As we have done on other trips, we took opportunities to leave the comfortable resort to go and really see the country and its people. On these trips, we

The Power Behind Two Words

1762) I have not written many of these minute devotions using a verse from the book of Song of Solomon, but I will today because there is one that speaks of two powerful words. Song of Solomon 8:6 tells us love is as strong as death and jealousy is fierce as the grave. Let’s think

Beauty Pageant

1761) Our society, and I suppose many in history, has an obsession with looking good. This may include things that make your body look good and it also can include the things you have. A lot of time, attention and money is fed into this bottomless pit. 1 Peter 3:3-4 says we need to make
