Where to begin? Isn’t that the question most of us have when we are looking to increase wisdom and knowledge? We look at the pile of books at the library or book store, or we search the seemingly never-ending list of topics with which to learn on the internet. If we are honest, most ofContinue reading “The Fear of the Lord: The Key to Wisdom”

Seeking More of Him
Going through the “Read-the-Bible-in-a-Year” reading plan allows me to glean little nuggets that I have passed over in the past. And I find that it is so fruitful to simply and prayerfully read without focusing on a specific subject other than getting to know God more. Reading His Word and sitting with Him allows usContinue reading “Seeking More of Him”
The Thorn of Regret
So many people have suggestions and opinions as to what Paul’s thorn was when he was sharing with the people of Corinth about it. In 2 Corinthians 12, he called his “thorn…in the flesh” a “messenger of satan.” Paul didn’t tell them specifically what it was, but I’m sure we all can speculate in ourContinue reading “The Thorn of Regret”
True Doctrine Leads to Right Living
Walking the paths of life can be difficult and treacherous. It can also be uplifting and exciting. There are curves, bumps, twists, and turns. The scenery can be calm, chaotic, serene, and tragic. The unknown of each step meets us with every event we go through. But the biggest question I have is, “how doContinue reading “True Doctrine Leads to Right Living”
Embracing Self-Discovery: A Journey Through Psalm 139:13-16
Inside your mother’s womb, you were being formed and fashioned. Each day that went by was yet another milestone toward the ultimate goal of being born.

God is Wise
One of the many attributes that God reveals to us in the Bible is that He is WISE. There is wisdom in His creation, His works, and His ways. The world offers a different kind of “wisdom” that the Bible calls folly. This folly is perversion of God’s wisdom. There is a twisting of theContinue reading “God is Wise”
Getting to Know God
What is one to do when we are stuck? Where do we go when we study so much and do so many “good” things that it seems like you are missing something? In my search for meaning and acceptance and accomplishment, I am drawn to the point of everything I say and do. Everything culminatesContinue reading “Getting to Know God”
Psalm 3
There are so many things going on in my own life that are chaotic and troublesome. I have kids that are out of school for the summer, and they are bored. Lacking transportation has made this a boring summer for them. Also, this summer brings out the pests. I have a pest problem that IContinue reading “Psalm 3”
Ask, Seek, Knock
Have you ever asked God, “What do You want me to do?” I know I have a lot. And when asking guidance from others, I get advice about ‘how’ to hear Him or what they say to do. Often times, I get the answer of “you need to pray” or “just read the Bible.” ToContinue reading “Ask, Seek, Knock”
Find Joy in Work
Do you go to work on any given day and find yourself struggling through it? Do you feel as though this “job” is pointless or difficult or just a struggle? Do you find yourself checking the time frequently hoping that the time will pass faster so that you can just “get out of here”? MostContinue reading “Find Joy in Work”
