Deception is Never a Good Thing

656) I have a quote book where for many years, I have written things I want to remember. One such quote is, A liar better have a good memory. Deception is becoming a common thing in society. In fact, our specific words for lying have developed into: a little white lie, a fib, a falsehood.

Spiritual Genetics

655) It is not unusual these days to do genetic testing on perspective parents. In these results, potential illnesses, health benefits, family history warnings, connections with others you did not know exist, and ethnic make-up can be known. The problem is, these tests do not cover everything. Genesis 25:23 tells us that God specifically knew

When God Doesn’t Make Sense

653) I’ve mentioned before that words and their meanings fascinate me. This may be a reason one specific word stands out to me in Genesis 17. In the New International Version of the Bible, “will” is used 31 times. As I read through this passage, I also notice that the word, “promise” is not used.

Not “I Promise” but “I Will”

Fear Examined

651) In Genesis 12:10-20, we see a side of Abram that is not revealed earlier. In the chapter, he and his family travel to Egypt because of a famine and therefore, he decides that because he had a beautiful wife, then his life was in danger there. In his irrational fear, and I use the

Grace and the Law

650) Some avoid reading the Old Testament because they think that it is full of “the laws” that God gave His people. While this is true, we see from the very beginning of Genesis that God gave grace to individuals who broke the law. Adam and Eve were given proper clothes, a lesson in sacrifice

The Art of Deflection

649) Because I find words fascinating, it is not unusual that I look up the origins for some of our everyday words. The concept of blame, or better put, deflection is an interesting word. it has a Latin origin that means, to bend away from yourself. The idea is that in deflecting, a person takes

What’s God Waiting For?

648) From the day that God told Noah to build an ark until the flood arrived was 120 years. The Israelites were slaves in Egypt 430 years before God delivered them. Forty years passed until God brought His people into the Promised Land. It was thousands of years before Jesus was born and when will

In a Little While

647) Remember as a child when Christmas Eve seemed like a week while waiting for the morning? Time seemed so slow. Aging has made time pass quickly but God has told us again and again that this life is but a “blip” on the eternity timeline. This is hard for our human minds to grasp.
