What is it Worth to You?

615) What is it worth to you to find someone who will always save you when you need it? This may include saving you from situations, danger and from yourself. In addition to this, what is it worth to you to have someone who is always delighted to see and talk with you, no matter

My Statement of Faith

614) There have been several events in my life recently that I’ve had to depend on faith in ways I’ve never had to. I found myself saying to God, “You say the ‘just shall live by faith’ but I’m struggling. Whatever You decide (in these situations), I will accept it, by faith.” Sounds like dedication,

Seeing is Believing, Right?

613) Having grown up in church, I am well-acquainted with the typical “Bible stories.” One of them is the details of an angel visiting Joseph concerning Mary and instructing him to marry her. I might think, No wonder Joseph believed. If an angel came and visited me, I would believe, too. These verses tell us

God’s Economics

612) What is the value of a single human life? This question has been asked at difficult periods of history and we can see examples of human economics. How about during WW2?

A Confused Orange

611) What if an orange was convinced it was an apple. It could yell out “I’m an apple.” It can try to get in on the apple picking industry. It can take food coloring to try and change its peeling appearance. It doesn’t matter what it tries to do, it’s still an orange. Jesus spoke

609) The book of Jonah tells the story of someone (Jonah) who did not like what God had planned for him, so he selfishly ran away. Later in the book, someone (Jonah) did not like the mercy God gave to people who repented. In his selfishness, Jonah put sailors’ lives in danger, and later he

Sick Pleasures

608) There are some specific events of this life that I find puzzling. When I taught high school, I could not wrap around my mind (and heart) the response of many students when they heard there was a fight. I saw crowds running through the halls so that they could witness it. This horrified me.

Grace and Mercy

607) Grace and mercy are cousins. Grace is getting something (i.e. salvation) that we don’t deserve. Mercy is not getting something (i.e. punishment) that we do deserve. God is the ruler of both. In spite of what I do, think or say, God covers me in grace and mercy. Rejoice.  Lamentations 3:22

No Calls on Hold

606) With caller ID, it’s made communicating with others more convenient. It helps us weed out those we do not wish to converse with.  What is amazing, however, is that God also knows who is calling Him and Jeremiah 33:3 tells us He always picks up the call. He longs to have a conversation with
