Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay in Habakkuk 2:3 I’ll be honest, I’ve never taken the time to read Habakkuk before.

A God Sense of Humor
“Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?” Matthew 7:3 (NIV) Let’s face it. Jesus wouldn’t have been a very interesting person to follow if he didn’t throw a little humor around every now and then. I think thatContinue reading “A God Sense of Humor”

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your god will be with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9 The beginning of Joshua’s journey as the brand new leader of the Israelite people has been fascinating and encouraging to me lately. For theContinue reading “Strong and Courageous”

But the gateway to life is very narrow and the road is difficult, and only a few ever find it.” Matthew 7:13-14 NIV Let’s be honest withContinue reading “How 5000 becomes 12”
Walk on Water
But Jesus spoke to them at once. “Don’t be afraid,” he said. “Take courage. I am here.” Matthew 14:27 There comes a time in all of our spiritual walks where we begin to feel like Peter did while on his walk with Jesus. We get so pumped up with our faith that we can’t helpContinue reading “Walk on Water”
Apathy of Cain
Most of us are familiar with the story of Cain and Able. If you’ve ever opened the Bible with the intent to read the whole thing cover to cover you’ve at least made it that far without giving up. You maybe sat through Sunday school class and learned about “the evil Cain.” We have beenContinue reading “Apathy of Cain”
