We Have THIS Hope
In the midst of all the mayhem, Colossians 3 keeps coming to mind reminding me to set my mind on things above. I’ve been thinking how important it is to remember that as believers in Christ, we really are strangers here. And if this world is feeling less and less like home, that’s because it’s not our home, which I’m really glad about because currently it is full of unpleasantries.

The God Who Pursues
I’ve been hanging out with Martyn Lloyd Jones in his book, The All Sufficient God, and contemplating what love God must have for us in not leaving us alone in our sin. His love for us and His patience with us is absolutely amazing. When mankind chose to rebel against God, He had no obligation…
Meditation and the Overflow of the Heart
Psalm 19:14 says, “Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my rock and my Redeemer.” This verse struck a chord in me this morning.
