Daily Praise

2553) I love the outdoors. It may seem an unusual thing for me to say, because much of my work is done inside. I do love the beauty that surrounds me everywhere, especially outside. If I sat here and listed the things about the outdoors that I love, it would mean this “minute” devotion would

A Little Bit Can Be Dangerous

2552) Have you ever been shocked after hearing someone say something casually? Could this be because you only heard part of the message and not the whole? It’s an easy thing to do to make conclusions based on an inadequate amount of information. Hosea 4:6 tells us a lack of knowledge about God’s word can

Words, Words, Words

2551) I was reflecting on words this morning. Interestingly, it wasn’t directly connected to my writing. Instead, I was thinking of why words are so powerful. Words are a way to communicate to others what we’re interested in, what we value, and sometimes, even the value we place on other people. Proverbs 10:19 warns us

Which Gift?

2550) I can distinctly remember when I started realizing what I was good at. It was during high school. This knowledge came from trying different things, other’s comments and an inner passion. All of us are good at things; some of them are innate. Knowing what we’re good at gives an opportunity to fulfill the

Silent Fools

2549) If you wish to discover someone’s character, listen to what they say. The pattern of their speech shows what’s within. Proverbs 20:19 illuminates what one should say or not say. Even a fool appears wise when he keeps his mouth shut. Saying nothing is sometimes a better choice than continually talking.

The Bible and Inertia

2548) I was reading an article recently that focused on inertia. I found it interesting because I can plainly see its fingerprint all around me, including in the mirror. Inertia basically means things love to keep doing what they are doing. Patterns form quickly, and once they establish themselves, changing course will be a fight,

Engagement

2547) It’s easy to get sucked up into other people’s drama. It sometimes happens without our even noticing it. The emotion. The point of view. The resentment. The response. Proverbs 26:4 warns us not to answer a fool in their folly. In these situations, it’s best not to engage. I think some of this is

I Know You

2546) Whenever I travel, while waiting in or walking through an airport I think I see people I know. It’s almost as if my mind sees and tries to make a connection. Often this connection isn’t in the form I expect. The connection I see is something about the way a person stands, the shape

Look for the Fruit

2545) Having a Master’s degree in technology is a result of the gift God has given me to understand and “see” how it works. One of the things I’ve been watching in this field is the establishment and huge growth that Artificial Intelligence (AI) has made in recent years. As most things do when there’s

Before You

2544) If you have never read about the Shackleton Expedition at the South Pole, you are missing out. Shackleton was a great leader and is the main reason all 27 in his crew survived in Antarctica for two years. One of the things Shackleton insisted on is when there was danger ahead of their progress
