Today’s Scripture: 1 Peter 2:3, NLT- “now that you have had a taste of the Lord’s kindness.” When we taste what we love, we tell others and return for more. This statement by Peter in 1 Peter 2:3 sounds both like a conclusion and a commencement. As we read forwards and backwards to better understand God’s Word we are filled with amazement and ...

God is perfecting His love in us.
Today’s Scripture: 1 John 4:12, NKJV- “No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us.” Loving others is not easy. In the flesh and in the emotions of the day we must turn to God. Words are easy, love is not. We are given hope and grace in 1 John 4:16 that states “God is love.” ... Continue Reading »
The truth of Jesus is in us.
Today’s Scripture: 1 John 1:8, KJV- “If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.” It is interesting that the Apostle John wrote out of his own firsthand experiences with Jesus in the flesh and yet he writes to teach us that the truth of Jesus in “in us.” Our life with God is designed to be lived with Him in ...

I love You LORD, my God, with all my heart, soul, and strength.
Today’s Scripture: Deuteronomy 6:5,NKJV- “You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.” I just love how God and His commands, the Bible, draw us to what we need most. I was directed this morning to Deuteronomy 6:4 “Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one!” (NKJV) Over the past ... Continue Reading »
I am offering myself as a living sacrifice to You God.
Today’s Scripture: Romans 12:1, NIV- “Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship.” In the easier to say than do category, we must get over ourselves and offer our bodies as living sacrifices to God. We are a bundle ... Continue Reading »
I am willing to reason with others how God cleanses my sins.
Isaiah 1:4 was written 2700-2800 years ago but these words sound like today: “Oh, sinful nation, People weighed down with guilt, Offspring of evildoers, Sons who act corruptly!
