I have always wondered about the glory of God that shown on Moses’ face and the meaning of why he put a veil over his head. Ex 34:33 And when Moses had finished speaking with them, he put a veil on his face. I have also tried to “find” Jesus in every part of scripture but… Read more

It all began in first grade, that dreaded part of the school day… English! I never understood diagramming sentences or conjugating verbs and it haunted me all the way through school. I, me, he, she, it, they, them… past tense, present tense, future tense, and all the others… present simple, present continuous, present perfect, past… Read more

I was reading a poem this morning and it got me to thinking about one of the most troubling aspects of my life. It’s a part of me that I contiually find myself having to contend with, and quite often I lose the battle. And those battles come up from everywhere at anytime, generally when… Read more

If you have been following my writings for any length of time, you know that the Lord has drawn me into the message of spiritual maturity. For that reason He has revealed and continues to reveal His truth regarding my most frequently quoted verse; Rom 8:29. And it seems that at every turn He is taking… Read more

How often the world hears the word “meekness” and associates it with “weakness.” It seems that the meek shall inherit the earth (Matt 5:5) is just another way of saying that it’s those who don’t do anything that will wind up the winners in the end. What the world, and many Christians, misses is verse 3: theirs… Read more

I was thinking about a verse that I have written about previously on a number of occasions and something hit me that, while I knew it, I never really thought about it. Eph 5:18 … but be filled with the Spirit I have always focused on the tense of the word “filled” (present continuous)… be being filled. We… Read more

I spent some time reflecting on my journey through this world the other morning in light of the wanderings of Israel on its way to founding Jerusalem. It was interesting that the nation was never referred to as “aliens.” It was the Gentiles that were called “resident aliens,” the Hebrews were always called “sojourners.” In… Read more

We’ve entered into a marriage contract, a covenant, with the creator of the universe, but how many of us really know who He is? Have we made the commitment and spent time with Him to learn who He is and what He says? I suspect if you’re like I was, you have spent entirely too… Read more

As I was reading about the struggles of Ezra and Nehemiah to rebuild the wall around Jerusalem I came to the place where Nehemiah was challenged once again by the forces of evil; Sanballat, Tobiah and the Arabs, Ammonites and Ashdodites (its always the “ites”). And I was challenged to think about how I overcome… Read more

I think for the most part that the majority of folks who spend any time at all reading the Book of Ezekiel, their focus is on chapters 38 and 39 in an effort to better understand Revelation 20. And, honestly, there are parts of the book that on the surface are boring when compared to… Read more
