God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not we fear, even though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; though its waters roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with its swelling. (Psalm 46:1-3, 10) [God says...

Knowing the Unknowable – Chris Tiegreen  “We know what we do not yet understand and believe what we cannot yet explain.  ..God’s truth…often works in us before our rational minds catch up to it. We experience Him in extra-rational ways”. “Jesus, May I know the fullness of Your love even beyond my understanding, and may others...

The Joy of the Lord The Bible says, “The joy of the Lord is your strength”.  If so, why is it that we walk around with our heads hung down, absorbed and overcome by our circumstances as though they have the last word?  We must refuse to be a slave to our emotions and circumstances—tossed to and...

A Matter of the Heart (Inspired by the devotionals of Chris Tiegreen) We’ve all heard that real change begins on the inside and manifests on the outside. As I heard one preacher put it, “It’s an Inside Job”. One of my favorite songs – actually one that made me fall to my knees and cry...

Love – A Transformative Power “Love suffers long and is kind…love never fails…”. (1 Cor 4-8). We’ve read that scripture countless of times but how often do we really take it to heart? I think I’m safe in saying that we tend to be hardest on ourselves – super critical when we err, ungentle and unkind...

First Things First  Frank Covey, a well known leadership expert, says in his book 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, “seek first to understand and then to be understood.” I liken this to what we should also do when it comes to our kingdom objectives in relating to others.  First seek to hear from God (faith...

Think It and Experience It When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive—to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love—then make that day count!  – Steve Maraboli God’s Word admonishes us likewise: “Finally, believers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable and worthy of respect, whatever is...

Receiving and Giving We’ve all heard the saying “it’s better to give than to receive”.  And while that statement has good and honorable intent, when it comes to our relationship with Christ we must first receive from Him (daily nourishment) which then enables us to pour out into (nourish) others. In other words, we have to...

In Hot Pursuit Funny how when it comes to things we want in life we become focused and very creative in ways to achieve it. And we stay in hot pursuit, willing to go through “hell and high water”  to make it happen.  That’s the attitude God wants when it comes to relating to Him. We’ve...

Most Valuable We Are Until you value yourself, you won’t value your time. Until you value your time, you will not do anything with it. – M. Scott Peck The Bible tells us to “not think more highly of ourselves than we should”. Now that doesn’t mean to think “less” of ourselves. After all, we are God’s...
