There is a verse that I use all the time when I am confused or distracted by this worldly chaos that surrounds us. But the Holy Spirit got my attention this morning as I was reading, and my mind went the opposite way. When that happens, my response is always the same … Be still (Scholasate) and know Read more

In reflecting on the current world situation, I got to thinking about all those folks who are just “hoping” in “hope.” They don’t really have anything solid to hold onto as the world pushes them from one corner to another.Perhaps the very strong are fortified in their hope in their own abilities, but what happens Read more

Hunted day and night by Saul, David found himself constantly seeking a place to hide. Always in fear of being killed, he and his 600 men finally found themselves holed up in a cave. 1 Sam 23:13-14(a) Then David and his men, which were about six hundred, arose and departed out of Keilah, and went Read more
