TWO WORLDS I wrote these words in the margin of my note-taking Bible on January 21, 2014, while reading the 13th chapter of Luke. There is a natural world and a supernatural world, a natural man and a supernatural man. The message of the cross is a supernatural one that has to do with eternity. […]

DEFENDING JESUS In the first six verses of the 14th chapter of Luke, Jesus asks the Pharisees and experts in the law, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?” In the fourth verse, “They remained silent,” and in the sixth verse, “They had nothing to say.” How is it with you? When it comes […]

PRAY AT EVERY TURN A couple of weeks ago, during my morning worship time, I prayed, “Holy Spirit, guide me to follow Jesus more closely today than I did yesterday. Let not a day go by without close fellowship with Him.” Within my spirit, however it happens, I heard, “Then pray at every turn.”

WHO DOES WHAT? Yesterday morning, before the fireplace downstairs, I was lamenting how hard it is to stay close to Jesus throughout each day. “What is my part in all this, Lord, and what is Yours?” I emptied my consciousness of all thoughts of my own as I stared into the flames…until these words arrived […]

CREATION CONTINUING ON Yesterday was a miracle – the birth of little Grayson Day, our newest grandchild.
