Standing Tall on Our Knees in Prayer
“Nobody stands as tall as a Christian on his knees”I love this anonymous quote. It reminds me to spend time on my knees and thank the Lord for all his blessings and forgiveness. I need it. And because I need it (forgiveness), and because he gave it, I am filled with His grace. God has me covered...

Grace Precedes Peace: God's Riches at Christ's Expense
So I talk about finding peace and serenity a lot. I sign off with “Grace wins” everyday. So I thought we’d talk about the Grace. Grace is, as the acronym states, God’s riches at Christ’s expense. Grace is what opens the door to salvation. And just as grace precedes salvation, grace also always pr...

Finding Power to Forgive When Mad
Ever get mad? Sure you do, we all do. I get so mad at the people who haven’t learned that the left lane is for passing only, not cruising, I work myself into a mess! I mean how can people operate with this level of selfishness? I’m exaggerating, but not really. Sometimes everyone gets mad, angry,...

Planting Seeds, Not Moving Mountains
So, will we always see the result of the work we’ve done by witnessing to others and being there when they need us the most? Most certainly not. But that shouldn’t discourage us from being there and sharing the Gospel. You see, we never really know how God is using us, we just need to have faith...

Don't Let Others Change How You Worship Jesus
You know, we are all pushed in many ways by others in directions that can alter our relationship with Christ. I read a quote recently that said, “don’t let someone who didn’t die for you affect the way you worship someone who did.” Wow, that’s strong. We read in Revelations, “When I saw him, I fe...

Count Your Blessings: Every Good Gift From Above
So, to take us into the weekend, I thought I’d have a little fun but ask a serious question too. First, I grabbed a verse from James. “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.”James 1:17 N...

Building Your Gratitude Muscle: Seeing God's Goodness
Occasionally I talk about it, but I’m going to level with you, I love doing these, they’re not always great and they may not always be relevant to everyone but they are to someone. So, thank you, I am grateful for all of you. Which brings me to a great topic to take into the weekend. Gratitude!Yo...

Overflowing Cup: The Promise of Heaven's Rest
Most of what we read in The Psalm if David is about the journey and how God (our Shepherd) protects us and leads us along the way. We are His sheep after all...Anyhow, for me it’s the promise that I love so much;“You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with...

Let God Wipe Away Your Past
“He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away."”Revelation 21:4 I’m going to keep this simple today because the point I want is simple. When you are in Christ, your p...

Grace Greater Than Our Sin
We’ve been doing this since sometime in 2018. I know I’ve written 1014 devotionals. I don’t think that’s all of them because I’m sure I’ve accidentally deleted some and reused some…but I digress. In the beginning, I use to sign off our devotionals with God is greater than me. (God > Me) I’m sure...

While We Were Still Sinners: God's Proven Love
I had a couple great conversations this weekend with a few friends and they were asking me about my journey and how I am where I am and how I got here...their questions gave me reason to reflect on God’s grace he’s shown me. “but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Chri...

Justified by Faith: Grace Plus Nothing
I’ve been thinking the last couple of days about the journey we have been on together and some of the topics I chase down a rabbit hole. Not that I think they’re necessarily bad topics or irrelevant, I just think it’s good to get back to center. Level set, if you will. So, with that being said, I...

Making Big Decisions with God's Guidance
It’s hard making big decisions in life. Often times we put it off or because we are so afraid we don’t make them at all. But in those circumstances that demand a grown up response, those who trust in God can look to him for guidance. That’s the only way I know how to make them. In the Bible David...

Happy Thanksgiving!“I want you to know, brothers, that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel, so that it has become known throughout the whole imperial guard and to all the rest that my imprisonment is for Christ. And most of the brothers, having become confident in the...

The Health Benefits of Biblical Thanksgiving
With this being the start of Thanksgiving week, I thought I would try something different and talk about the act of giving thanks to the Lord this week. Simply focusing on being thankful for all we have and for all the Lord has done for us. Tomorrow is “treatment Tuesday” and this time it will be...

What Are You Really Talking About?
Welp, I guess we gotta keep talking about election stuff for a while longer…it’s a bit exhausting really. It’s all I’ve been hearing people talk about. But let’s take a minute and think about what we are always “talking about”. If you’re like most people, and I assume you are, you’re talking abou...

God's Unchanging Purpose in Our Changing World
Life changes but God remains the same! Yep, it’s true. Look it up. You see, God is going to continue to do what he’s always done and that is he heals and forgives us. He’s going to continue to watch over us and set our path. His path for us remains the same and His purpose hasn’t changed. What is...

Getting Back on Track: The Power of Repentance
I got to thinking about how life seems to ebb and flow with good times and bad. More specifically, I got to thinking about how we can get stuck in the bad. I’m talking about that “stop the world I just want to get off this ride” feeling. We’ve all had it, but what do we do to get off “that ride”?...

Short and sweet going into the weekend…This life isn’t easy, in fact it’s hard. We all have struggled and we all have failed but we must move on...“Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own. Brothers, I...

Nothing Compares to Our Relationship with Jesus
I’m thinking about a lot of things as surgery approaches tomorrow for the third time in a year with this cancer and it occurred to me, you ever take a minute and look around your life and reflect on the blessing He has given you? I’m sure you have, we all do at times. This morning, as I am diggin...

Being an Effective Witness by Being Like Jesus
So, I’ve been reading through Philippians and talking about how we need to get to work to spread the word of Jesus. It’s been enlightening reading about Paul and his struggles and his witness. But it’s been brought up to me and asked, “how exactly do we be an effective witness?”Well, look at it l...

Who Should Share the Gospel? Christ Matters Most
As we near the weekend, I wanted to touch on a something that has been with me the last few days. It’s a thought centering around my own sharing of the gospel and the sharing I receive from others. More specifically who “should and shouldn’t be sharing”? “Some indeed preach Christ from envy and r...

Immanuel: God Chose to Be With Us
“Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel" (which means, God with us).”Matthew 1:23 Have you ever thought about why God sent Jesus? It’s pretty amazing to think about. God could have chosen any number of ways to save us. But He sent His Son, Jesus, t...

God's Presence Remains Even When We Sin
You ever get the feeling sometimes that when we sin, that God has left you? Like the feeling you had when you were a kid and you got in trouble with your parents and they punished you and during that moment you felt like they have left you? I have for sure. But the thing is, that feeling that our...
