Knowing about God is not the same thing as knowing God. This is where there is a great divide: between the knowing about or the truly knowing and experiencing the presence of God in your life. In 1 Corinthians 2:5, we read: “For God intended that your faith not be established on man’s wisdom but … Continue reading Established Faith

Trying to Impress
Trying to impress others is not always a good practice. Typically we end up sharing a distorted version of ourselves. Then we sell ourselves short because people do not get to know the real you, which is much better than the facade. We read in 1 Corinthians that Paul was not trying to impress people … Continue reading Trying to Impress
Curb Cut
Until recently, I never knew what a curb cut meant. I actually have two curb cuts that I clear of snow and ice every winter season. Over the years, I have called them ramps as I tried desperately to ensure that the winter mayhem was removed from their presence. The main objective in my mind … Continue reading Curb Cut

But then, as I was placing my coffee cup on the table, the mug placement was not completely on the table. I blame it on … Continue reading Liquid Offering
Except Jesus Christ
I love the verse for today. Paul said he “decided to know nothing among (them) except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.” That is all that He chose to speak about when He was with them. It was all about Jesus. He notes in the first verse that when he approached the people, he didn’t bring … Continue reading Except Jesus Christ
If You
We often like to add our two cents. It could be sufficient to say a particular thing but we add a little more because it’s on the tip of our tongue.
