Life is full of seasons. Seasons come and go. And with each new one that God brings me into, I can’t help but wonder, “How long will this last?” Nothing lasts forever — only God. I know that every season has its beginning and its end. Sometimes, those beginnings and ends are practically written in…

A Prayer for Our Children
I’ve prayed through Psalm 40 for my children, and for me. I share it here as a prayer for my children, and a prayer for your children. Our God is good. Lord, let my children wait patiently for You. Listen to them and hear their cries. Bring them up out of the pit of destruction.…
God is Good
How did you wake up this morning? Did you wake up in a bad mood, a good mood, or just an ok mood? God is good. How are you doing lately? Have you had some rough news come your way, good news, or no news at all? God is good. What does your day ahead…
In The Wilderness
The Israelites complained all through the desert wilderness where God led them after they had spied out the Promised Land, the land God had said was theirs, the land they had left Egypt for. The Promised Land was an amazing, beautiful, rich land, but the Israelites didn’t trust the Lord that He was able to…
At The Command of The Lord
At the command of the Lord they camped, and at the command of the Lord they set out; they kept the Lord’s charge, according to the command of the Lord through Moses (Numbers 9:23). At the command of the Lord. That phrase grabbed me as I read this verse. We, as Christians, move at the…
A Sacrifice of Righteousness
I am a living sacrifice (Romans 12:1). I lay down my life. I lose it. That’s a sacrifice of righteousness. Everything I am and all my hopes and dreams in this world, I lay down at the feet of Jesus. God created this world, so any of my hopes and dreams and plans for the…
What Is My Delight?
How blessed is the man…[whose] delight is in the law of the Lord (Psalm 1:1-2). Let me delight in You, Lord. There’s so little in this world that offers lasting pleasure. But You, Lord, remain. For a little while hobbies or activities or entertainment bring happy times and moments, but they don’t last. Eventually, boredom,…
God Provides Enough
There is always enough with the Lord. There will be enough for you. His ways are not the ways of the world. Do not fear when the enemy tempts with his ways. In this world we have tribulation (John 16:33). We have troubles. But God is enough. He sees us through the troubles. He always…
Go To God
God directed Moses and he followed. Moses did what the Lord told him to do. He put God first and walked by faith. He stood firm against Pharaoh. He didn’t compromise. It would’ve been so easy to negotiate, not hold fast to the direction of the Lord, and at least get some quick relief for…
Is God Enough For Me?
God set Israel apart and cared for all their needs. They didn’t want for anything. And yet Israel wanted to be like the other nations. They wanted both God’s holiness and the ways of the world around them. They fought God. He promised everything to them, if they so chose (Deuteronomy 11:26-29). God provides all…
