Where do you have your thoughts today? That’s the question we must constantly be asking ourselves each day. The world is a busy place. There’s things happening all around us that capture our attention. With social media, we have even more vying for our attention. In Hebrews 3:1 we read: “And so, dear brothers and … Continue reading Fasten Your Thoughts

Cravings
We all have cravings. During the fall season, I crave pumpkin roll and pumpkin pie — two things I should not even eat because I’m not supposed to eat pumpkin. We also all have moments we give in to our cravings. Case in point: I just had pumpkin roll a few days ago. The Bible … Continue reading Cravings
Undistracted Devotion
It’s too easy to become distracted today. We have everything available at our fingertips. This wealth of stuff can take our attention away from being present. Our smartphones by themselves can cause us to disengage from the task at hand. Today’s verse speaks of being undistracted. We read in 1 Corinthians 7:35: “I am trying … Continue reading Undistracted Devotion
Overwhelmed

If you don’t know about this amazing product, it appears in one of my favorite television shows, I Love Lucy, in my all-time favorite episode of the show. Lucy … Continue reading Overwhelmed

The ESV translates it this way: “It is good to give thanks to the … Continue reading Uncontainable Praises

A few times I missed the right turn and my shortcut turned into a longcut. After a few misses, I focused on my … Continue reading Two Lions
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

God Projects
We often get absorbed in things. Before you know it you were online for an hour. Before it was realized, you played the video game half the night. When you had planned to get work done, something else grabbed your attention. While at work, you became so focused on a task, that you stayed late … Continue reading God Projects
