Eternal Guidefeatured

Amazingly this this painting has the same title as today’s mini-devotional: Eternal Guide! It is based on Psalm 25:4-6. “Show me your ways, Lord,    teach me your paths.Guide me in your truth and teach me,    for you are God my Savior,    and my hope is in you all day long.Remember, Lord, your great mercy and love,    for they are from of old.” I have Read more

Beautiful Lordfeatured

This posting is the first of what I hope will be periodic invitations to reflect on God’s Word.  I have found that when I take the time to not only read, but “sit” with a verse or two, the Holy Spirit usually has a truth for me to absorb and apply to my day.  I’ll Read more

Season of Encouragementfeatured

This week two people (who I don’t know very well)  shared with me how they have struggled spiritually during this pandemic that  continues to drag on and on.  Subsequently, the Holy Spirit nudged me to follow up my last devotional, Seasons, with something about encouragement. As Christians, we are all called to be encouragers and Read more

Seasonsfeatured

According to the calendar we have moved from summer to fall, but in Houston, TX where I sit, it is currently 88 degrees which doesn’t feel very “fallish.”  I am ready for a change of seasons! God’s Word speaks to the seasons of life in the familiar words of Ecclesiastes 3:1-8. “There is a time Read more

Layersfeatured

“Thy will be done.”  I find it very easy to let this phrase in the Lord’s Prayer (Matthew 6:9-13) roll off my tongue without giving it a great deal of thought.  I often tend to think of it in global terms.  Thy will be done in getting rid of COVID.  Thy will be done in Read more
