God’s Up All Night

“Can all your worries add a single moment to your life?”   Matthew 6:34, NLT This question that Jesus posed to His listeners, is a good one for each of us to consider. After all, we’re a nation of worriers. God wants us to be a nation of warriors…prayer warriors. He wants us to win over […]

Nothing Is Something

In The Never-Ending Story, a fantasy civilization is being destroyed by “The Nothing.” The Nothing slowly works to deprive every living thing of imagination, thinking, or even reading a good book. The nothing creeps in like a thick, dark cloud to keep people believing more in the “Nothing” than in the “something” they still have.  […]

The writer of Ecclesiastes 9:7 said this: Seize life! Eat bread with gusto, drink wine with a robust heart. Oh yes–God takes pleasure in your pleasure!

A Bit of Humpty Dumpty

Here’s a short prayer for everyone who feels a bit crushed by life’s circumstances. It seems we can still learn a few things from Humpty-Dumpty.   The Lord is close to the brokenhearted, and he saves those whose spirits have been crushed.             Psalm 34:19, NCV Dear Jesus, I feel like Humpty Dumpty after he […]

Following Up on the Star of Wonder

The bright star in the night sky sometime around the birth of Christ may forever be a mystery. Since we just celebrated Epiphany, the event of the Magi visiting the Christ child, I’d like to pause for one more moment to consider the story further.

When Nothing Seems to Work

I have a new book in the works that will come out sometime next year with Broadstreet Publishers. It’s called Prayers to Strengthen Your Soul. I hope the book will inspire readers to recognize that nothing on earth separates them from the love of God.  Psalm 73:26 says, “My flesh and my heart may fail, […]
