When God’s Way Works

We asked the Lord for him, our third child, third son. He came with the springtime, the crowning creation of new life, bewailing his shuffled surroundings. Folks commented on his wail: they thought it was adorable. We…

What Is Right About My Music?

Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life,…

A Suffering Savior

He was born in a stable, meant for beasts of the field. It was from the beginning that His will He would yield. He was never well-liked; despised by all men; Laughed to scorn, reviled—again, and again. Yes, His mission…

Redeemed

His pillow was wet, tears continued to flow, Oh! Where is the day? This night would not go. Decisions he made; he would never forget. His wife and his children, oh the regret! (You don’t know what you have, until it is…

Overcoming Fear with Faith

Wars and rumors of wars, a pandemic sweeping across the world, whispers of economic collapse, carefully made plans disrupted. This is our world today. Why would God allow a tiny microbe to encroach on all of humanity,…

That Ugly, White Pocket Knife

Joel had a serious problem of taking things which did not belong to him. Sometimes he would sneak mother’s freshly baked cookies from the cookie jar, or he would take Nathan’s magic markers without asking to use them. To…

Only in the Darkness

Is it only in the heartbreak, When confusion ‘round me churns, That I truly seek my Savior’s arms And my will toward Him turns? Is it only in the darkness, When I cannot see my way; Or when asked of something I do not…

JOY

One fruit of the spirit is a word we all know. Joy is a blessing for us believers below. Man can’t produce the Joy that I speak, It comes from God, given to the meek. It allows you to suffer, having peace within. It only…

SPEAKING THE TRUTH in love

That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; But speaking the truth in…
