Imagine that there are two cups. There’s the cup of the Lord and there’s the cup of demons. Actually, don’t imagine. It’s true. There’s two cups. The cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. Paul speaks about these two cups in 1 Corinthians 10, and he makes it clear: “You can’t feast at … Continue reading Two Cups

The Merit of Observing
Many of us learn from our parents, our teachers, and society in general that if you do good things, you earn good things. This is somewhat true. I know that I have earned good grades for doing homework. I know I have a decent driving record for following the rules. I have had many opportunities … Continue reading The Merit of Observing
Deliverer from Death
Read Psalm 86. Today, we are going to look at how God delivers us from death. In Psalm 86:13, we read: “You love me so much and You placed Your greatness upon me.

Fire Hazard
It was a morning filled with the chaos of snow. For those who love snow, I’m sure they were enjoying the white fluffy madness. I’ll admit it looked beautiful on the trees; however, I am more thankful for the arrival of spring. I’ve never been a big fan of snow. Driving in the snow is … Continue reading Fire Hazard
Found Forever
Philemon is a short letter but it is surely a gem. In Philemon 1:15, Paul writes that Onesimus was lost for only a little while so that Philemon could have him back forever. The forever that is mentioned is not talking about the return of Onesimus to the position of servant to Philemon, for him … Continue reading Found Forever

The Road
The other night I left the van windows open. It’s so easy for me to overlook as I’m not sitting back there. Of course it rained that evening. Thankfully it did not rain inside the van. I did not learn my lesson. Last night, I left the van windows open again. This time, the outcome … Continue reading The Road
Scars
As I look at my skin, I see many scars. I have a few scars from some bee stings that caused my life to be rattled for a few weeks. I have the scar on my right hand when I attempted to cut open a brand new VCR I got for college using my house … Continue reading Scars
Two Bones
https://www.instagram.com/p/BConHvzleXZ Whenever I get to the pet store, I like to get a special treat for both of the pups. Today I decided I would get both of the dogs a large bone that I previously got for Max in the past. I always hesitated getting one for Marci because she is so small. It … Continue reading Two Bones
