In the first Chapter of John, John’s disciples asked Jesus where he was staying, and Jesus said, “Come and see.” Then, Jesus’ disciple Philip went and found his friend Nathanael and told him about Jesus.

I was reading in John, Chapter 7 and verse 30 stuck out to me. “Then the leaders tried to arrest him; but no one laid a hand on him, because his time had not yet come.” And I thought to myself… Why couldn’t they get their hands on him? How could he have escaped if… Continue reading Be Encouraged

I think we get it wrong sometimes. We love God. … but we get it wrong. We sit down to read His word and our mind wanders. We stop to pray, but we aren’t focused. We go to church and sing and pray with our movements resembling that of a robot. We get it wrong.… Continue reading A Heart Of Worship

I want the gracious hand of God on me. Don’t you? I’ve been reading through Ezra and Nehemiah, and over and over, statements like, “The gracious hand of our God was on us” or “the gracious hand of God had been on me” are common phrases. And I read that… and think how much I… Continue reading The Gracious Hand of God

Two words. They could’ve been left out. Two words. Out of over 783,000 other words. Two words. God had a purpose for them. Jesus wept. Two words. The shortest verse in the Bible.
