Contentment

2085) Have you ever worked hard at something which may have taken you all day? Do you sit back afterward, reflecting on all you accomplished?   I have and contentment fills me. Why? Because I’ve accomplished something worthwhile.   Philippians 4:4 tells us to rejoice in the Lord always. The word for rejoice in the

The Stones of Judgment

2084) I have always gravitated to the Gospels in my Bible study and because of this, I sometimes read but don’t think about something I am very familiar with.   T his almost happened recently when I was reading John 8.   At the beginning of the chapter, the religious leaders, you know, the ones

Contrast Has a Purpose

2082) A few years ago, I took a beginning watercolor class. It was an experience which has opened a door to another room for creativity.   One lesson my instructor introduced us to is contrast. Painting an object can be beautiful, but adding a contrast beside it enhances its beauty even more.   I am

On Guard

2081) Many have ideas about angels which are not supported in Scripture. For example, some think when someone dies, they become angels.   The Bible makes it clear that angels are separate created beings and not human.   Many people also refer to guardian angels and in a general sense, this may be true but

Fig Trees

2080) Extreme weather the last few years on the coast of Maine has caused us much damage. Because we have lost power for multiple days over the coarse of several storms, our house generator wore out and had to be replaced.   The wind blew an outbuilding with a cement foundation crooked. We’ve had 6

Peace

2079) Having disagreements can and will happen. The amount of stress you experience often depends on how much you value the person(s) involved.   Yet, when the conflict is resolved, and the relationship restored, we will often experience peace.   John 14:27 tells us Jesus gives us peace. The Greek word for peace is eiréné

Skills are God-given

2078) When I ask my young scholars to write about what they’re good at, many cannot think of much to put down.   When I stop by their desks and see they’re struggling, I’ll suggest things like, you’re good at getting your assignments in on time. Or you’re good at singing, basketball or being a

Words

2077) As a writer, I have a sensitivity to words; what they mean and how they’re used. There are trillions of words online and, in this abundance, it’s easy to miss important ones which are surrounded by those which aren’t.   In thinking about this, I’ve noted when someone is described as a person of

My Example

2077) When I was in Bible college, I had the blessing of having the late Doctor Johnny V. Miller as a professor and later, a friend.   Johnny was always prepared in his coursework with the added blessing of having the gift of finding and teaching practical applications of God’s word.   He was serious,

Restoration

2076) I have a friend whose sister restores paintings in New York City. Her job is meticulous and methodical. I would love to see some “before” and “after” shots of her work.   As I think of restoration, I think of Psalm 23:3. Here, David writes that God restores his soul. Because of God’s mercy
