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

Continually Woven For Good
Today’s verse is one I remind myself of daily. Romans 8:28 says, “So we are convinced that every detail of our lives is continually woven together for good, for we are His lovers who have been called to fulfill His designed purpose” (TPT). I need to remind myself of this daily because each day we … Continue reading Continually Woven For Good
Your Faith Expects
In Mark 11:24, we read: “Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours” (ESV). This certainly is not a green light to expect you will receive every single thing you request in your prayers. When God answers our prayers, we receive a “yes” … Continue reading Your Faith Expects
Ways of God
Read Psalm 86. Today, we are looking at the ways of God. In Psalm 86:11, it says: “Teach me Your way, O Lord, that I may walk in Your truth; unite my heart to fear Your name” (ESV). This verse from Psalm 86 is the verse that kicked off this month of study. The Passion … Continue reading Ways of God
Living a Limited Life
When I first moved in the home I currently reside, I remember trying to get all of the utilities installed for the new place. One of the hardest vendors was the trash removal service company. I was asked to haul my trash a far-off distance because the truck couldn’t fit down our road. For years, … Continue reading Living a Limited Life
You Have Done Nothing
We do not think like God thinks (Isaiah 55:8). That being said, there are many times when we are unable to grasp what God is doing and we become frustrated. We may even cry out to the Lord, “You have don’t nothing,” just like Moses did. Moses was upset with God. He was angry because … Continue reading You Have Done Nothing
Hidden Faults
We are all sinners. We all need Jesus! When we face our sin, we are to turn to Jesus with repentant hearts and we are forgiven. The question then is what about the sin’s we don’t know about? The sins we cannot see? The Psalmist asked God to provide cleansing from “hidden faults.” He admitted … Continue reading Hidden Faults
Sleeping In
I rarely get to sleep in as I like to be up early in the morning during the school week to be sure the kids are prepared for their day. As well, Sunday mornings I start out early once again so I have time to read my Bible and prepare myself for worship. Only on … Continue reading Sleeping In
You Don’t Know
“Your hands shaped me and made me. Will you now turn and destroy me? Remember that you molded me like clay. Will you now turn me to dust again? Did you not pour me out like milk and curdle me like cheese, clothe me with skin and flesh and knit me together with bones and … Continue reading You Don’t Know
Some Great Thing

Elisha told him to go to the Jordan River and wash 7 times when other rivers were considered better. … Continue reading Some Great Thing
