The following is a devotional I wrote (and just came across again) about 15 years ago. As much as I hate to admit it – I still have to wrestle through this issue. Maybe you do to. Perhaps you don’t get tripped up with the same lie, maybe the lie you hear, and fall for,Continue reading “Whose Voice is that?”

God is for You
When I am afraid, I will put my trust in You. In God, whose word I praise, In God I have put my trust; I shall not be afraid. What can mere man do to me? You have taken account of my wanderings; Put my tears in Your bottle. Are they not in Your book? This I know, God is for me. Psalm 56:3-5,8-9 NASBContinue reading “God is for You”
When the Extraordinary, becomes Ordinary
Cast all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you. Cast your burden upon the LORD and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous be shaken. 1 Peter 5:7 Berean Study Bible Psalm 55:22 NASB Because He cares for you.… Familiarity breeds contempt. The extraordinary becoming ordinary. In the era ofContinue reading “When the Extraordinary, becomes Ordinary”
Rock of Ages, Cleft for me
I called on Your name, O Lord, Out of the lowest pit. You have heard my voice… O Lord, You have seen my oppression. Great is Thy faithfulness. Who is among you who [reverently] fears the Lord, who obeys the voice of His Servant, yet who walks in darkness and deep trouble and has noContinue reading “Rock of Ages, Cleft for me”
Release the Weight
Cast your burden on the Lord [releasing the weight of it] and He will sustain you; He will never allow the [consistently] righteous to be moved (made to slip, fall, or fail). Casting all your anxiety upon Him, because He cares for you. Psalm 55:22 AMPC and 1 Peter 5:7 NASB 1977 I am soContinue reading “Release the Weight”
A Testimony of “Through”
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. For as weContinue reading “A Testimony of “Through””
Glory to God?
Recently, I came across this years-old devotional I’d written, and couldn’t help but think of those walking through knee-deep trials right now. Pain that lays us bare and can cause even the strongest and God-honoring to cry “uncle”, this is too hard! If that’s you – I am so sorry for what you’re walking through.Continue reading “Glory to God?”
All Who Are Weary…
“Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest…” Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. But as for me, the nearness of God is my good; I have made theContinue reading “All Who Are Weary…”
“Recipe” for Peace?
Be still and rest in the Lord; wait for Him and patiently lean yourself upon Him; fret not yourself because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass. Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition (definite requests),Continue reading ““Recipe” for Peace?”
Shattered Snow-globe
Please forgive the rerun – this devo keeps bubbling up in my heart, so I decided to send it out again. Just a reminder, as followers of Christ, we will walk through the same tragedies, the same pain and the same every-day struggles as other folks. And yet … we are not walking alone. We have noContinue reading “Shattered Snow-globe”
