In Ecclesiastes 8:6, we’re told, “For there is a time and a way for everything, even when a person is in trouble.” The problem is that often times we want things to be in our time and in our way. But one thing I’ve learned as a follower of Jesus is that God’s timing isContinue reading “There is a Time and a Way for Everything”

I’ve had an old DCTalk song stuck in my head this week. For those of you who don’t know of DCTalk, they were a Christian pop/rap group in the 80’s and 90’s. One of their members is my all-time favorite artist, Tobymac. The song that was stuck in my head is one of their later songs titled,Continue reading “Are We Turning To Him?”

This week my wife shared a devotional with our church for Christmas Eve. So, instead of writing my own blog today, I decided to share hers. Matthew 28:18-20 (TLB) He (Jesus) told his disciples, “I have been given all authority in heaven and earth. Therefore go and make disciples in all the nations, baptizing themContinue reading “We Are Never Alone”

Today I heard the Christmas song “Mary Did You Know?” This is a question that I have often thought about. Did Mary have any idea what she was saying when she told the Angel, “May it be done to me according to your word.” I’m sure she couldn’t even imagine what it would be likeContinue reading “Mary, Did You Know?”

In Luke 2:14, the angels sing, “Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.” The phrase “Peace on earth” is something you see everywhere at Christmastime. But many of us wonder where that peace is. Whether we’re searching for peace in the chaos of our ownContinue reading “Let Him Be Your Peace”

As we enter into the month of December and all that the Christmas season brings, I know that this time can be different for everyone. Some of us are full of excitement and joy in anticipation of what this year will bring, while others of us dread this time and can’t wait for it toContinue reading “Reflecting on What Christmas is All About”

Yesterday was Thanksgiving. Hopefully you were able to take time to stop, reflect, and give thanks for the wonderful blessings we have in and through the Lord. But now that Thanksgiving is over, we shouldn’t stop giving thanks. Psalm 118:24 tells us: “This is the day the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be gladContinue reading “Continuing to Give Thanks”

I was reading the story of the prodigal son found in Luke 15 this week. It’s an amazing story of a father’s grace and love for his son. And it reminds us that we have so much to be thankful for. If you’re not familiar with the story, I would encourage you to read it.Continue reading “Being Thankful for What We Have”

We read in Genesis 12 that Abraham was called by the Lord. In verses 2 and 3, God says to Abraham, “I will make you a great nation and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever cursesContinue reading “Growing in Our Faith”

I read in an article this week that depression among adults in the United States rose from 8.5 percent to 32.8 percent in 2020 and 2021. That’s 1 in 3 adults who are dealing with depression. I know that many people feel alone and afraid in the midst of all that’s going on in ourContinue reading “He is With Us Always”
