Today’s Scripture: Mark 14:36 ESV: And he said, "Abba, Father, all things are possible for you. Remove this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will." Our will, our flesh, can lead us contrary to God’s will can’t it? As Jesus said to the disciples just two verses later in Mark: 14:38 “The spirit indeed is willing, but the ... Continue Reading »
I live on every word that comes from the mouth of God
Today’s Scripture: Matthew 4:4 ESV: But he answered, "It is written, "'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.'" I have certainly found life in the Word of God but have quite a ways to go to live on every word. The Spirit is helping me and leading me, but I am yet to be up to the ... Continue Reading »
I am doing exactly what the Father has commanded me to do
Today’s Scripture: John 14:31 GWT: However, I want the world to know that I love the Father and that I am doing exactly what the Father has commanded me to do. Get up! We have to leave."

Paul was reminding the Corinthians of God’s faithfulness to ... Continue Reading »

Like us, Asaph, who wrote this psalm, witnessed the highs and lows of life. He served under David and Solomon and experienced the wonder of God and the wandering of ... Continue Reading »
My soul thirsts for the LORD
Today’s Scripture: Psalm 143:6 ESV: I stretch out my hands to you; my soul thirsts for you like a parched land. Selah I feel David’s soul. I feel his pleas to the LORD. Do you NEED the Lord to hear your prayers? Read Psalm 143. This is one of my favorite chapters in God’s Word; heart wrenching, soul reaching words that awaken my ... Continue Reading »
My hope is in the love of the LORD
Today’s Scripture: Lamentations 3:21-22 ESV: But this I call to mind, and therefore I have hope: The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; What gives you hope? Lamentations seems to be an odd place to find hope. These people endured a hopelessness you and I will most likely never face. Starvation, ... Continue Reading »
