I believe that I mentioned at the beginning of this year that one of my desires for this year is to learn more about how I can hear God’s voice more clearly.  In fact, the devotional book I’m using for my daily readings is titled Hearing His Voice by Chris Tiegreen.  I’ve learned a lot … Continue reading Hearing Clearly For Others →

(Scripture references from NIV) There have been so many times in my life – and I am certain that I am not alone with this – that I have faced “challenges”.  Some have been small and some have been much larger.  It can be so simple to find myself fretting and worrying over these “challenges”.  … Continue reading The Battle Called Life →

It has always been a bit confusing for me as to why such a momentous and truly horrible incident could result in a day being called Good Friday - when in my mind it seems more appropriate that it should be called Bad Friday or maybe even Black Friday.   There are other … Continue reading Bad Friday Good? →

Today is Palm Sunday - the beginning of what Christians call Holy Week.  It marks the beginning of the end for Jesus on this earth. It is a celebration of the day that Jesus, along with His disciples, returned to Jerusalem.  There were a lot of people in Jerusalem at that time because of the … Continue reading The Beginning Of The End →

Daniel 6:4, 10-16, 25-27 (NIV) (Reposting - Original post March 24, 2019) Daniel chapter 6 is one of my very favorites.  It tells us how King Darius set up 120 men to be officers in his kingdom, with three Governors over them – one of those Governors being Daniel.  Daniel did such an outstanding job … Continue reading Just As Before →
