For the last few years I feel like I’ve been living in the wilderness, kind of like the Israelites. On my journey, I have been doing my best to “Live by the Spirit” “If we live by the Spirit, let us also keep in step with the Spirit.” Galatians 5:25 Like the Israelites, while I’ve […]

The Lord is (my protector, my caregiver, my provider, the lover of my soul) my shepherd, so I shall not want (or need anything that is of real value because it is all found in him.) He makes me lie down (and rest) in green pastures (of blessing). He leads me beside still waters, (to […]

Are you still waiting on God to answer a prayer? If you are anything like me, you have an idea of how he can solve your problem, all worked out in your own head. As I wait for my answer, and wait, and wait, I have seen God work in my heart and in my […]

In this fallen world, bad things can happen to innocent people. It’s hard for our brains and hearts to process it.

Impatient On The Way

“Whether it was two days or a month, or even a longer time, that the cloud continued over the tabernacle, abiding there, the people of Israel remained in camp and did not set out, but when it lifted they set out.” Numbers 9:22 How nice to have such clear direction. They of course, still could […]

Passing the Test Often times in life we find ourselves in a trial of one kind or another. The Bible calls it “testing our faith.” A silversmith puts silver into a crucible to be melted down so he can remove the dross. We go through times of testing to remove the impure elements that are […]

“ Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee…. Who passing through the valley of Baca, (sorrow/weeping) make it a well.” Psalm 84:5-6 WELL: A source from which something may be drawn as needed; a deep hole or pit sunk into the earth to reach a supply of water, oil, gas…. Making a well […]

I was reminded today as I read my devotional, that while we often pray and wait on God to work in our circumstances, he too waits on us! We must not lose hope! God is working to bring things about and waiting for just the right moment to bring blessing and victory in our lives. […]
