The Book of Exodus has always been an exciting book to me. God reveals Himself and His mighty power in such miraculous ways defying the laws of nature over and over. God shows Himself very real to His people in order to leave no doubt that He is their God. When God calls Moses to go and…
In our efforts to console friends and loved ones in their trying times, we try to appease them with words such as “God will never fail you.” It’s hard to see victory when you’re in battle. We forget there is nothing too hard for God, until He brings us out. God is faithful. His Word…
As I was praying the other day, I thanked God, as I often do, for His grace…His amazingly wonderful grace. God graciously answers prayer after prayer for me…generously, too.

A few years ago, on a Saturday morning, two women knocked on my door to talk with me about Jesus and their church. Great. Right? So, I asked them what they believed about Jesus. And they proceeded to show me Proverbs chapter 8. What these Jehovah’s Witnesses ladies tried to make this chapter teach about…
I love plants, and flowers especially. They add so much joy to a room. But I don’t have much of a green thumb. O.K. I don’t have a green thumb. At all. In fact, it is a joke in my house that if I buy a plant, I have sentenced it to a short life….
