Grace We talk about being the recipients of the Grace of God, so what is this Grace we are talking about? God's Riches At Christ's Expense Today is the day of Grace, which means that we are now living in a time where the extension of God’s goodness is still available to anyone who reaches...

Ye Can Do Nothing
Can our prayers become too generic? It is easy to just blanket cover things went we are praying; asking the Lord to help us serve him better, that he will bless the missionaries and the leaders of our nations and such the like. Perhaps they even grow a little lifeless and boring, and we drift... Continue Reading →
Watch!
Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning: 36 Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. 37 And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

Fragrance of God
Have you ever wondered how God can be everywhere all the time? Sometimes I think about how God reaches out to men and women, boys, and girls, all over the world at the same time, calling, comforting, and saving them, and my mind almost stops; I cannot comprehend it. He is one being, yet his... Continue Reading →

Proverbs 29:25 KJV The cold talons of fear silently... Continue Reading →

I have told this story many times since it happened, because of its uniqueness and... Continue Reading →
Thoughts on Thanksgiving
I woke this morning with the thought that thankfulness is a byproduct, not something we put on like a coat. Likewise, counting our blessings cannot be done without looking at what we could have suffered. We cannot be thankful for a good crop without knowing that we could have had a crop failure. We cannot... Continue Reading →
Cry
Oh that I knew where I might find him! that I might come even to his seat! Job 23:3 KJV To the chief Musician upon Aijeleth Shahar, A Psalm of David. My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?... Continue Reading →
What is Man?
When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? Psalms 8:3-4 What a mighty God we serve. My heart is overwhelmed when I consider the greatness of... Continue Reading →
