“The clouds are the dust of His feet” ( Nahum 1:3 ). God reveals Himself to us in the clouds. The next time I look up to see the clouds I will look at them a little differently. My Utmost for His Highest, July 29: It is not true to say that God wants to teach us [...]

Last Sunday I (along with several others) was given an opportunity to speak of God’s love and how his love has filled our lives. The last time I had the opportunity to speak was a couple of years ago when I was explaining to the youth why I would no longer would be their youth [...]
I just want to “be”
Posted: July 24, 2008 in Discipleship, Inspiration, Keith Green, Oswald Chambers, PrayerGod, you are amazing!. I am so thrilled that You love me.

I asked the question a few weeks ago, “If you could be doing anything you wanted to do (right now) what would it be?” I’m surprised the stirring this question has raised. I asked this of several people and I still get responses from it. This little question is packed with a lifetime of challenge. [...]
Parenting has got to be one of the hardest jobs on the planet. Parenting has got to be one of the most joyful experiences on the planet. At times it is a fine line between being the hardest and the most joyful experience. It’s a job I’ve never regretted for one second. I love my [...]
I’m having surgery on my heart… not physically but rather spiritually. How does one know if one is living in the sin of “unbelief”? “He did not do many mighty works there because of their unbelief” ( Matthew 13:58 ).
