Whose Praise Matters
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged God, Man, Praise on May 2, 2012 | Leave a Comment »
Whose praise are you trying to earn today? Whose approval are your trying to get today? Your boss? Your peers? Your co-workers? Even your preacher or your church? Today, whose approval are your desiring? Listen to what Paul says today in 1 Thessalonians 2:4-6: but just as we have been approved by God to be [...]
Be Holy (Gulp)
Posted in Reflections, tagged Different, God, Holy, Love on April 17, 2012 | Leave a Comment »
One of the commands of for His people is one that I don’t like to hear, and is one that I’m just as likely to run away from as I am to want to obey. Be holy. Gulp. That’s hard. And it doesn’t sound like fun. Or something that can do. Or something that we [...]
Something to Hold on To

In life, we all need something to hold onto. We all need something to cling to. We all need something that, when the waters are rough and the times are hard. We need something in out lives to hold on to. Listen to what Psalm 63:5-8 says this morning: My soul will be satisfied as [...]

Today in the text we read, Isaiah encounters God. He is in Temple praying and God shows up. He is there, and the Lord God Almighty decides to make an appearance. And one of the things that I love about this passage is what Isaiah says when God shows up. Listen to what happens in [...]

I Don’t Want To!

I really wish that life was all unicorns and rainbows. That’d be awesome. It would be great if life was only made up of things that were easy, of things that we liked doing; of things that we would chose to do. That’s not the way that it works. Life is not always made of [...]
To the Thirsty

Very few passages in the Bible start off, hey, those of you that are doing just great, I’ve got something to tell you. That’s not how most the Bible sounds. In fact, in the few cases are talking to the one’s that have pretty well off, the message is either this – be careful, don’t [...]
Something Better

One of the great things about the New Year and the starting over we get to do each year in this time is the chance to reaccess what is most important. What matters most. What are really living for? There is something better than the 9-5 grind that many of experience each day. There is [...]
