Drinking deeply of the Living Word

Month: August 2015

The King

“Hear my cry for help, my King and my God, for to you I pray.”  Psalm 5:2 King David addresses Jehovah God as King.  He, being a king himself, would have a better idea than most of us of what this entails. Here are some ideas: My King is my Sovereign, my master;  I must… Read More The King

Yellow light, Red light, Green light

A couple of years ago my husband found out that he was going to lose his job. They kept him on as long as they could, but then they had to let him go. Somewhere during that process, I had a day or two where I was worrying about what we would do, you know… Read More Yellow light, Red light, Green light

Wild Racoons

A friend of mine was telling me about some of her camping experiences down by the river. She said that the racoons were so persistent that she and her camping buddies just decided to make the most of it by having some fun with them. They would do things like tying a chicken leg to… Read More Wild Racoons

The Beauty of Holiness

“Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name; worship the LORD in the splendor of his holiness.”  Psalm 29:2 (NIV) “Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.”  Psalm 29:2 (KJV)   What is holiness anyway? When I was younger I heard a sermon… Read More The Beauty of Holiness

On Wasps and Neb’s Advice

It has been said that in God’s eyes, the way up is down.  In other words, before we can be exalted in God’s kingdom, we must first humble ourselves.  When we try to manipulate people and situations to exalt ourselves instead of going about it in God’s way and in God’s timing, it will eventually… Read More On Wasps and Neb’s Advice

Meteor Showers and Perseverant Focus

A few nights ago the Perseid meteor shower began.  My husband and kids went out to see it before I did and saw three clear meteors before I got outside. The conversation went something like this: “We already saw 3.  They said look to the south, but they’ve been coming north to south.” (long pause)… Read More Meteor Showers and Perseverant Focus

The Judge is at the door

I have a memory from when I was a little girl.  I think I was in the third grade. One day our class was standing scattered around the classroom, and the teacher was not in the room.  I suppose we had just come back from lunch or recess. All the other kids were being SO… Read More The Judge is at the door

Words that water and bring life

My friend, I stood side by side with Jesus today; We watched you as you wept. We were sad with you. But we grieved even more That you were not aware of our love And our caring thoughts for you. You wept because your plans fell through And out of your control. He grieved because… Read More Words that water and bring life

June musings – The Ants Go Marching In

This week has been a week of battle – battle against the ants, that is.  They decided to invade my counter tops for some reason; we have had a lot of rain, so perhaps coming in was the easy way for them to search for food in a dry place. There were so many of… Read More June musings – The Ants Go Marching In

Accept one another

Romans 15:7 NASB says, “Therefore, accept one another, just as Christ also accepted us to the glory of God.” So how well are we doing at obeying this command?  Do we ever use excuses to try to justify ourselves for our disobedience?   Let’s see if we see ourselves in the following: But she’s different!   Were… Read More Accept one another

Be Still

About four years ago our family had a charity yard sale on a hot day in July. The Lord had blessed us with a good number of customers, and so we had done well.  But I persevered into the afternoon hours in spite of the heat. The reason for that is because I find that… Read More Be Still

The Extra Mile

In the past, I’ve often considered going the extra mile to be less than it really should be.  I’ve often thought of it as just doing extra to please someone, or possibly doing extra to be a good example or a good witness to someone who needs to see Christ in me. I’m not saying… Read More The Extra Mile
