There is Hope

1481) I have mentioned before that watching the news or reading my newsfeeds can be extremely disheartening. I know it’s the job of journalists to report what is going on and that “bad” news sells more than good, but it gets to be so discouraging. I see anger, hurt, confusion, ruthlessness, unkindness, and more. I

We are not Meant to Be Islands

1480) Growing up, one of my favorite shows was Gilligan’s Island, and I still watch it from time to time. The show portrays an innocence of life, but I always wondered what it would be like to be stranded on an island with 6 other people. I guess my answer would be; it depends on

Good Advice

1479) I have received some great advice through the years and one of them is, if you have to talk yourself into something, you probably shouldn’t do it. This is not to mean that if you’re scared, always back away. Instead, I am referring to the times when you have to make a decision and

The Ultimate Antidote

1478) Have you ever gone through a period of depression? A time when your soul is living in a dark place and very little interests or uplifts you? David gives us an antidote for these seasons in our lives. It’s found in Psalm 103:2. David tells us never to forget the good things God has

Loving Deeply

1477) In one of my weekly newsletters, I discuss why “Context is King”. To handle or study God’s work accurately, it’s crucial to consider the context of what you’re reading. Peter talks about how to live a holy life in 1 Peter 1, and verse 22 is part of that description. In verse 22, Peter

Eye Witness

1476) “I’m going to keep my eye on you.” This is a statement I heard a lot when I was growing up. I believe they used it exclusively to mean, “I’m watching to see if you’re up to something.” When we read in Psalm 11:4 that God watches everyone closely, it’s easy to conclude he’s

An Open Door

1475) As a writer, clichés can make me cringe. Not that I have anything against them, it’s just that people use them so much, their meaning or point is of lesser power in their familiarity. Once such cliché for me is When God closes one door, another will open. Do I believe this? Of course,

Listening is Hard Work

1484) School has just started for me and one thing that wears me out is the demand for my attention. I have wondered how many times my name has been called out during a single day. Would it be upward to 100? It seems like it. When all the children in a classroom call on

The Problem of Grace

1474) There are times when I really enjoy reading something that truly stretches my mind and urges me to contemplate something I haven’t really thought about. Much of C.S. Lewis’ and Viktor Frankl’s works are gold mines of consideration. Their words have also encouraged and challenged me to write several “scholarly essays” and I have

Want Peace?

1473) I am a worrier; always have been. If there’s something that is difficult, stressful or unknown, I worry. Because of this, I sometimes cringe when someone reminds me (and not always lovingly) that Christians should not worry. I’ve given this some thought and here are some of my ideas. First, I think I need
