We have all been there. Fear grips us. We begin to realize that we are way in over our heads. The heart plummets, and our heads reel. In desperation, we look this way and that. No help. No way out! We are through! But wait! Is there hope? There is! If our hope is in... Continue Reading →
Lack Nothing
We have to get it! We cannot stand missing out on something our hearts desire. The sad part of our modern greed drive is that we set our sights too low. We chase after fleeting things like pleasure, money, and a name. Our Shepherd offers us infinitely more when He offers us Himself. If we... Continue Reading →
They Who Seek
There is one thing we Christians still get wrong every time. We come to faith in God and His Son, Jesus Christ. Then we heave a sigh of relief. We know that Heaven finally opened its doors to us. And this is where we get screwed up. We stop seeking. There are degrees for each... Continue Reading →

The Heavens Shout

Our minds cannot capture it all. Wrapped in all that precision and order lies volumes of praise to our limitless... Continue Reading →
Sent From On High
When God moves, it is impressive. Some witness God reaching through the natural course of things to alter reality. They do not know how to describe it. There are no words.
