The Bible tells us everything is in his hands. Good to remember when we hold too tightly to the life we think we’re controlling.

Even on the other side of the valley, you will still find at least one enemy. But relax. God wants to nourish and protect you there.

Even before the pandemic, some of us said or felt, “I want my life back.” Psalm 23 shows us how that can happen,.

I don’t know if I can, but I’ll try. That’s a sentence to describe many situations in life, including my goal to write about Psalm 23 all this week.

After reading Paul’s encouragement to the Romans, I better understand why people who knew more than do I asked me to help them.

Most of us work out or plan to work out. The question is why we want physical—or spiritual—strength.

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.
