Psalm 19:7-14 I have a hard time following the directions of someone who has lived in the same area forever. They go something like this. “Well, you go down to the old Baylor place, but don’t turn there. After the spot where the lighting took out the old tree on Wally’s place, turnContinue reading “Enough to Restore”

Silent Message
Psalm 19:1-6 Sometimes a message can be heard loud and clear without any words being spoken. Moms and Dads have a way of looking at their kids that can communicate volumes of information. Great disapproval and exuberant approval can be telegraphed with a single look. No one has to teach the kids what thoseContinue reading “Silent Message”
The I-You Dance
Psalm 18:37-50 The interplay of our will and God’s will, our actions and God’s actions often puzzles us in our lives. How do my actions interface with the sovereignty of God? If He is really in charge of every detail, do my choices really matter? Am I just a robot in His diorama? Continue reading “The I-You Dance”
Military Preparedness
Psalm 18:30-36 Militaries around the world and throughout history have trained for conflict. Because evil resides in the heart of each and every one of us, conflicts will happen. And despite our best human efforts they get out of control. In our day and age there are those who want to start conflicts, createContinue reading “Military Preparedness”
Credits
Psalm 18:16-29 Do you sit through the full credits when you go to a movie in a theater? What is a gaffer, a best boy, a key grip, a wrangler? Does a dolly grip stand around and hold a toddler’s doll? Are there that many cattle on a movie set that you need aContinue reading “Credits”

The non-follower wants to hide what they are doing from the LORD and often from others. Inwardly they knowContinue reading “Honest Feelings”
X-ray Exam
Psalm 17:1-9 With today’s medical advances, it seems that X-rays are still the first non-invasive look into our bodies when there is pain that can’t be explained, or when ruling out other causes. Now X-rays have improved greatly over the years. Now they are done digitally, at least in the developed world. There isContinue reading “X-ray Exam”
Single Focus
Psalm 16:7-11 It is so easy to get lost along the road of life. There are so many distractions. Some states are even outlawing some of those distractions. I heard about a man who got a ticket for eating a burger while he was driving. I hope it wasn’t a veggie burger! Of courseContinue reading “Single Focus”

Psalm 16:1-6 It matters who you spend time with in your life. The company we keep makes a huge difference in the direction that our lives take.
