Now and Then

2433) Have you ever stopped and thought about life in heaven? What will my interactions with God be like? The Bible reveals some information about the next life, and Psalm 107:1 is one of those passages. It reads, oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever. (ESV)

Grandparents are Heroes

2432) Both my husband and I had grandparents who were gems in our lives. They were the soft place to fall, and their eyes would light up when we entered the room. Having a grandparent’s love is a powerful thing. It can bring healing and unconditional love. Though Proverbs 17:6 addresses the blessing of grandchildren,

How?

2431) It’s amazing to me that we can find out how to do just about anything on an online video. From how to get the sink stopper out to how to turn off the obnoxious desire many cars now have to lock all doors as you gain speed. Though we can find all this help,

New Wine

2430) When Jesus came to earth as a human, his mission was to be the permanent sacrifice for all we do wrong. He stated in Matthew 9:17 that his teaching of forgiveness and grace is new wine and doesn’t belong in old wineskins. I reflect on this and when I read Romans 6:14 I notice

Divide and Conquer?

2429) I have been asked a couple of times how I can write these minute devotions when I clearly need to hear the message too. The asking was not an attack but clarification. I am not writing from the mountaintop; from the point of thinking I have it all together. In fact, many of these

You may also have a big circle of friends you spend time with, laughing, working, and caring, but they aren’t in your “inner circle.” Having people in both of these is important. The small group may

What’s Following You?

2427) It’s amazing that our eyes, when working as they should, can focus on so many things. We look at the sky, and then our pets, and then a car coming down the road, and each time, our eyes adjust to the distance and the amount of light present. It’s also amazing to me that

Your Light

2426) Being a writer, as is true with other professions, isn’t as easy as it looks. When I started out, trying to get into the publishing world, I had no idea it was so grueling. You’ve got to brainstorm, choose a subject, write it, edit it over and over again. You have to design your

Asking for Help

2425) For various reasons, I find asking for help difficult. There are many reasons for this, but it’s not because I think it’s beneath me to do so. When I need wisdom, Proverbs 2:6 tells me God has it, and he offers it freely to me. (James 1:5). This wisdom may march in through the

Justice is Tricky

2424) While reading Proverbs 29:4 this morning, it made me reflect on justice. The verse reads, by justice a king builds up the land, but he who exacts gifts tears it down. Justice, it seems to me, can be tricky because sometimes it doesn’t look the way I envision it to be. What I see
