A Merry Heart

A merry heart does good, like medicine, But a broken spirit dries the bones. (Proverbs 17:22) If you’ve been around church at all, you’ve probably heard that our hearts have a “God-shaped hole” and that we need a relationship with the Father to fill it. That’s the truth. The problem is a lot of Christians still have heart issues, even though they’ve accepted Jesus into their lives. Did I say “a lot of Christians?” If we’re honest, we all do. Whilst I wholeheartedly believe in the complete work of Jesus at the cross and through His resurrection; I also acknowledge that we are works in progress; there is a process involved in becoming the people God has made us. A lot of that process is worked out through our choices. Primarily, whether or not we … Read entire article »

Apple Versus Windows

Yet another good example of bad scripture interpretation.  Did you know that the Bible seems to favor Mac computers over Windows computers?  This one came by way of a friend in the UK: Some of her friends on Facebook were giving her a hard time for switching to Mac.  Here was her response: Jeremiah 9:21 warns us that “death has come through our windows” while Song of Solomon 2:5 says “refresh me with apples, for I am lovesick”. ‘Nuff said! 😛 Some more “fruit” for thought… “Like an apple tree among the trees of the woods, so is my beloved among the sons.” Song of Solomon 2:3 “A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver.”  Proverbs 25:11 (that almost sounds just like my new computer!)   … Read entire article »

Meditation 141

Meditation 141

Today’s Meditation Click to read: Psalm 107:31-43 God’s grace, as we have seen, is shown to us in numerous ways. This section of scripture is a lively mixture.  Here God is seen as the source of drought as well as abundance.  He is seen as the One who causes people to wander in the desert as well as the One who gives people a permanent place to call home.  Then the writer sums up everything by saying … Read entire article »

Meditation 140

Today’s Meditation Click to read: Psalm 107:21-30 Have you ever been in a situation where you felt totally out of control?  We talk about people as being more or less controlling than others, but when it comes right down to it, there’s not that many people who like to get on the back of a mad bull and ride it.  We all like to have a certain sense of stability and, well, control.  But God sometimes allows … Read entire article »

Meditation 139

Meditation 139

Today’s Meditation Click to read: Psalm 107:15-20 God’s grace extends even to drug addicts.  Although this is not uniquely what the psalmist was describing in this passage, there are a lot of similarities which are worth considering.  If you are caught in the bondage of drug addiction, you are in a prison which seems like it HAS gates of brass and bars of iron.  Because of your foolish actions and sin, you are afflicted.  What is the … Read entire article »

Meditation 138

Today’s Meditation Click to read: Psalm 107:8-14 Praise God for His grace to us!  Here we are told that God is a filler and a satisfier.  Luke 1:53 mentions this truth again when it says, “He has filled the hungry with good things, but the rich he has sent away empty.”  God is always looking for a hole to fill.  He looks for emptiness so He can manifest His glory.  He specializes in finding people who are … Read entire article »

Meditation 137

Today’s Meditation Click to read: Psalm 107:1-7 Psalm 107 is a chapter which is full of examples of God’s grace toward mankind.  This first section describes how He takes care of those whom He has redeemed.  First, God is able to gather His people.  No matter how far they have been scattered or whether or not they have lost track of one another, God knows.  Second, He is able to give proper guidance.  He does not lead … Read entire article »

Meditation 136

Today’s Meditation Click to read: Matthew 26:74-75 The grace of God comes to us in many ways.  For Peter, it was the simple sound of a rooster crowing.  Think about it.  Peter had grown up in Israel and heard more roosters crow than most of will ever hear.  It was nothing new, nor was it special in and of itself.  But this time, a common occurence was anointed by God to prick through the veil of denial … Read entire article »

Meditation 135

Meditation 135

Today’s Meditation Click to read: Isaiah 37:33-36 God in His grace will fight for you.  That is one part of the grace of God we tend to forget in our New Testament mentality.  It was a vital part of the existence of Israel in the Old Testament.  They had real enemies just like we do.  But their enemies brandished swords and spears; they came in droves and surrounded cities or raided crops. To the Israelites, God’s willingness … Read entire article »
