The Way We See Things

1588) There are days when I sit in front of my computer, preparing to write another “minute” devotion and I find I have nothing. The difficulties of life strike and when they do, I feel I have nothing to give. It is in times like these when I need to read Revelation 21:4. Let’s remind

The Frog in the Kettle

1588) I would imagine many of us know about the phenomena that if you place a frog in a pan of water and start heating it, as the temperature rises to boiling, the frog won’t jump out because the change was so gradual, it didn’t notice it. I think this same thing can happen to

Within Your Power

1587) There are so many things in this life that are out of our control. We cannot control the weather, the price of gasoline, disease, and the actions of others. If we focus on all the things we cannot do, we can miss out on those in which we can. Proverbs 3:27 tells us to

The Evolution of Honesty

1586) Honesty doesn’t seem to mean the same as it did when I was growing up. In those days, it was simple, at least in my child’s mind; honesty is telling the truth. Today, honesty has evolved into many things. First, honesty means we tell the truth as we see it. It is often blunt

Waiting Is So Difficult

1584) As I think back to Christmas Eves of my childhood, I remember how difficult it was to wait for Christmas morning. Going to sleep was hard but when we woke up the next morning, it was worth it. In Psalm 130:5, we also see something that’s difficult to wait for and that is waiting

Feeling Safe

1583) One thing I struggle with is feeling safe. There are many reasons for this but in one sense, it doesn’t matter. The bottom line is, I do. As I’ve aged, I’ve realized there is safety and there is a perception of safety. Having a locked door, a can of mace, etc, gives me a

Where Is Your Focus?

1582) Contemporary Christian music has come a long way. When the “Jesus Music” movement hit in the 70s, it must have been a shock to the older generation. Now, those pieces of music are nothing like the Christian music of today. Whether or not you like these changes, you can find plenty of what you

Treasure Hunt

1581) If you listen to what others say and watch what they do, you can find out some crucial things about them. Jesus tells us why in Matthew 6:21. Here, he says where and what we treasure reveals what we value. Not all values are bad. If you treasure the jolt of adrenaline, you may

Which Part Are You?

1580) One of the things that concerns me about how our country is functioning now (or not functioning) is how divided we are. I see divisions in families, politics, race, workplaces, and religions. This is a burden on my heart because I know that when there is division, the unit is much weaker and vulnerable.
