“I come to the garden alone….” This hallowed hymn always strums an emotional chord deep within me. It beckons me to that place of sweet delight with the Lover of my soul. “And the joy we share, as we tarry there, none other can ever know.” It is there that we enter the Holy of [...]

INTRODUCTION When I was a baby Christian, a Bible teacher was inquiring which books we would like to study. I chimed in, “Isaiah!” His comment, however, was in the negative, saying it was a lot of dry history and judgments. That was certainly not my take on the prophet. Even as young in the Lord as I [...]

John 1:14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory , glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth . We’ve all been there. Someone asks our opinion and we want to be truthful but we also don’t want to offend. The scenario is cliché on [...]

Perhaps you’ve heard the cliché “the oldest lie in the book” referring sometimes to “the check’s in the mail” but “the oldest lie in the book” is literally in the Book of Beginnings, the book of Genesis. It is spoken by the “father of lies”, satan. Satan’s opening line, posed as a question (Gen 3:1), [...]

Birth is an amazing thing. My wife and I had our first baby 6 months ago . One moment you have no baby, but you know the baby is alive inside of its mother. Then the baby is born, and suddenly everything is different. You can suddenly see and touch her, and start to get to know [...]

Arise, cry out in the night, at the beginning of the watches; Pour out your heart like water before the face of the Lord: Lift up your hands toward him for the life of your young children, that faint for hunger at the head of every street. (Lamentations 2:19) LET THE CHILDREN There is a sinister, ugly spirit, a [...]

My first post was a song inspired in my heart many years ago.  This is hot off the press.  I was praying in the spirit this morning and got a melody in my heart to which I had to write some appropriate words. ♥ His blood, His life, His love was all lavished upon us!  [...]

Tory got me a bouquet of roses today for no reason….and it was really nice! I appreciate random flowers much more than flowers on valentine’s day or something (though there’s nothing wrong with that too!), so that was really cool that he got me some!!! AND he got me roses, which I love! I like them [...]

I just love the way John doesn’t mention the name of the Word until right near the end of the passage.  Its very dramatic when he finally speaks the name ‘Jesus Christ’ – like a film trailer when all the action is building up and then the hero is finally revealed explicitly.  Lovin it.

Verse 10 – Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up. Two things about this verse really hit me. (1) It’s so opposite of what we would naturally think. Jesus does this a lot – He goes against our human expectations. The first shall be last and the last shall be first. Lose [...]
