I AM the one you seek
The name “I AM” is the Lord’s treasure detector. When Jesus says it, he is urging, “Search for treasure here. I want to show you more of who I AM.”
When your world has changed
God taught them not to be driven by panic. He showed them a completely different way. When our world has changed, their story from long ago can help us too.
Darkness, betrayal and the heartbeat of God
It awes me again every time I see it. Leaning back on Jesus’ chest, at the moment of Jesus’ betrayal, John heard the heartbeat of God
You have circled this mountain long enough
It may be in a month that’s little noticed when the earth moves under you. And God says, “You’ve stayed here long enough.” And something within you shifts.
God is hunting for hearts
God is hunting for hearts. “Not hearts of paper and lace,” he says. “I’m seeking human hearts that are open, tender, alive.”
Divorcing: When God does what he hates
Once, in Malachi, God may have said that he hates divorce. Repeatedly, in Jeremiah, God reveals how much he hates divorcing. Repeatedly, he laments the nonstop betrayals that did, and could, bring him to do it.
Recovering and treasuring the forgotten prayer
Why is it vital that we recover and treasure a prayer Jesus told us to pray – but our minds can’t seem to grasp, and our emotions can’t seem to embrace?
I carried you on eagles’ wings and brought you to myself.
The purpose of the wilderness
Wilderness strips life bare. It knocks all the supports out from under us. Circumstances may scream at us - and we may scream at God - that he has brought us there to kill us. And yet, it's in the wilderness that we may hear him say, “I have carried you on eagles’ wings to bring you to myself.”
The truth will set you free
Since childhood, I’ve treasured what Jesus said in John 8:32. “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” Yet somehow, till now, I have not seen the diamond in its setting, so to speak. I have not seen the import for us all.
The LORD is with you, mighty warrior
May I tell you a story? It’s a true story. And it shows what can happen when God sees courage in you that you do not see.
