Helping God?

652) In Genesis 16, many years had passed since God promised Abram that his descendants would be like the stars in the heavens but, in Sarai’s mind, God must have forgotten. So, Sarai decides to help God make this happen so she gives her servant, Hagar, to Abram to have a child on Sarai’s behalf.

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.

Watch

646) I love to go for walks and where I live, I need to consider the fact that there are wild animals around. Very few of them can be dangerous, but one time on a walk, I encountered a black bear, eating blueberries. I remember it stood up and my heart skipped a few beats.

Be Prepared

645)  It is not unusual for a child to ask you why you do certain things. This is a part of learning, brain development and curiosity.  As the child ages, the questions will not be as frequent but are more situation-specific. 1 Peter 3:15 tells us that if we are living by the principles of

Satan Believes in God

644) Satan doesn’t need faith when it comes to believing in God. James 2:19 tells us that he and his demons know there is a God and they are afraid of Him. At the same time, this belief is only an acknowledgment; he does not seek God’s forgiveness and a relationship with him. If all

Say, “Thank you!”

643) I grew up in a time when most parents taught their children to say, “Thank you”. When we received a gift, we wrote our thanks to that person. Do we do this as adults? James 1:17 reminds us that anything that comes our way that is good is a gift from God. Sometimes these
