God gives us all their names. That tells me two things about God—and about you and me.

Not all of our theological positions fit neatly inside the framework we’ve chosen. And that’s OK.

A list of do’s and don’ts that can make all the difference in our quest for the life God wants for us.

“God works everything together for the good of those who love him.” Let’s think about what that really means.

There are some things I just don’t understand. In Romans 8, Paul encourages me not to lose faith—with grand thoughts that come from, and point to, God himself.

If you’ll faithfully read Scripture day after day, you’ll be surprised at what you see there. Here is one my latest surprises.

Can you imagine being in charge of a nonprofit and telling your public, “Stop giving! We have more than we need!” Yet, that’s exactly what happened with Moses and God’s people.

The question of “why” is always challenging. In this case I’ve found the answer in the Word of God.

If I admit it, sometimes I’m afraid to pray. But the prayers of Moses can give me new courage when I’m in a tough situation.

I'm thinking about King David, running from his enemies, when he prayed, “For you save a humble people, but the haughty eyes you bring down.”

Political leaders may fix some things for a season, but they can’t make everything right. But as bad as politics might be, neither politics nor even politicians created the brokenness. We are the problem.

Maybe you’re seeking shelter from the chaos of this world. Maybe you’re seeking security when time comes to an end. In either case, Psalm 16 promises comfort.

Our everyday memory fails us for a variety of reasons. More important is deciding to remember God’s goodness day after day.

Since we’ve been children, we’ve been told not to lie. But an examination of Scripture reminds us that this is a very adult directive.

With our limited human understanding and experience, we may believe Scripture says far less than what we should really believe!

Remember the facts of what God has done. See the pictures of what he has promised. Together, these are powerful steps leading us to faith.

I’m big on moving to the next, better thing. But the story of Moses and the Israelites reminds me that the next step always requires giving up something picked up along the path already finished.

I’m not surprised that the Israelites were so worried about food in the wilderness. But I am concerned when I’m not hungrier for God.

What’s the distance between grateful and grumpy? Based on what I’ve seen, it’s not very far. You can judge yourself for yourself, but let me speak about my own situation.

We may visit lovely and comfortable destinations on earth, but God has created a place where we can live with him forever.
