Today’s verse touches upon judging others for doing something when you do the same thing. You’ve been there right? We’ve all been there. I would imagine everyone has had a moment of hypocrisy. Hopefully we have since then opened our eyes, but usually it’s not the case. We love to point out the splinter all … Continue reading Despising the Riches

By God’s Grace
It is by grace we are saved through faith in Christ Jesus (see Romans 3:24, Ephesians 2:8). Today’s verse gives us a different perspective of grace. We read in Hebrews 2:9: “But we see Jesus, who as a man, lived for a short time lower than the angels and has now been crowned with glorious … Continue reading By God’s Grace
Your Best, Not Their Best
Over the years, I am sure you have heard people recommend what other people like, what others people use, what other people do, etc. We live in a world of comparison and a world of “I know best.” I grew up watching aerobic workout videos I tried to complete to stay fit, only to get … Continue reading Your Best, Not Their Best
Brief Hiccups Along the Way
I don’t get hiccups often; however, life hiccups happen more than I would like in my life. A few months ago, I was excited to share my journey of Second Half, Best Half, along with continuing to share Daily Good Devotions. I was rested, pumped, and focused. Then I got COVID-19 and things halted. All … Continue reading Brief Hiccups Along the Way
Beautiful Gifts
When we think of gift giving, we most likely consider what the person needs or wants, what they will enjoy or use most. We consider if we are going to grab a gift card, get a specific item, or even attempt to make a gift by hand. These gifts we give on special occasions — … Continue reading Beautiful Gifts
Stooping Down
I am currently watching a television show with an arrogant character. I find myself getting frustrated by the arrogance, the snooty-ness of the character. As I easily notice this dreadful trait in this man, I am sadly reminded of my own arrogance. It is amazing how we are all so capable of arrogance but we … Continue reading Stooping Down
Reconstructing Law
When I was a little girl, I would soak up things like a sponge. I was a stickler for facts, rules, truths. When I burned my arm on a kerosene heater in a failed attempt to reach my Snoopy balloon, while receiving treatment from a nurse, I advised her that it was her poor eating … Continue reading Reconstructing Law

Mingling
Yesterday we looked at how quickly a person could stray away from Jesus. Today, we will focus in on the idea of mingling. Galatians 1:6-7 says this: “I am shocked over how quickly you have strayed away from the One who called you in the grace of Christ. I’m astounded that you now embrace a … Continue reading Mingling
Imposters
Today’s verse speaks about imposters who take advantage of people. This warning we read in 2 Corinthians 11:20 is clear. There are people who claim to be Christians but who are not living as Christ intended. They take advantage. They live for the spotlight. They like to be in charge. As they try to live … Continue reading Imposters
