Peacemakers Not Peace Lovers

1572) Because I have a love for words and what they mean, when I read Matthew 5:9 recently, I got to thinking about the word peacemaker, literally someone who makes peace. My next thought was, this differs from peace lovers. This person will do anything to not rock the boat. These two words and their

Why Pray?

1571) This may surprise you, but there have been times I’ve wondered, why should I pray? God already knows everything that’s going on; he knows my thoughts and reactions, too. Why tell him? It’s like a child telling the same story to a parent over and over and over. Yes, the parent knows the concerns

In the Presence of My Enemies

1570) There is a fact of life I have not addressed in my minute devotions very often and that is, we all have enemies. For some, this may not be a distressing thing. You straighten your shoulders and say, That’s their problem. It isn’t as easy for me. I struggle with the fact that I

The Facts of This Life

1569) I have to really watch that I don’t become a cynic. When I force myself to look at what’s on the news, read up on governmental actions, watch people in the grocery store grabbing up things to ensure they aren’t without them, leaving nothing for others to buy and more, I tend to just

We Don’t Know Everything

1568) Understanding that tweens and teens are very focused on fairness is important when teaching them. If they do something and receive a penalty, if they don’t see the same penalty given another student who does the same thing, they shout injustice through the roof. It is in times like this I try to teach

Just Deserts

1567) We all have pictures and ideas in our heads about who God is and how he operates, but have you ever wondered if these ideas are accurate? Many of us have the image of God that we do from our childhoods and life experiences. We may think of him as a loving being or

I Am Pleaded

1566) We just had an awards ceremony at school for the first quarter. The students of the school gather to listen for their names and the recognition they have earned. Some of the smaller kids are funny to watch. They jump up and down and wave their arms everywhere. What excitement there is! It is

You Are Called

1565) If you hear someone say, Hey lady, can you help me figure this out? They may have your attention but if someone calls you by name, you have an immediate connection with them. After all, they must know something about you. If you ever feel a little lost (or a lot lost) and if

Good Company

1564)  Having company can be a mixed blessing. On the one hand, you might be glad to see someone and catch up on what all has been going on. On the other hand, having someone visit throws you out of your routine. Company is a mixed bag. There is some company that is absolutely good,

No Abuse

1563) I have had a series of doctor’s appointments recently for various reasons, and at each place, the “check-in” desk has a sign that clearly states, “Our staff will not tolerate abuse.” When I read these signs, I shook my head, wishing they weren’t necessary. Unfortunately, they are. We are living in a world that
