Day 19 of the devotional, “Living a Divinely Inspired Life,” found on YouVersion.com, asks a very thought-provoking question. If someone walked in your shoes for 24 hours, what would they learn about Christ? What do you think they would learn? I believe as Christians we have a responsibility to live our lives in a manner [...]

Are you in the midst of living out God’s plan for your life? For some the call has been a spectacular moment with God… a miraculous event. For me, His call has come in the quietness of my heart, revealed through the Bible, circumstances, and/or the encouragement of other Christians. The interesting thing for me about His call has [...]
There is nothing more important than our devotion to Jesus Christ. The most important thing we can do is to praise Jesus – in all things and situations we need to offer our praise to him. Once someone begins to hear that call, a suffering worthy of the name of Christ is produced. Suddenly, every ambition, [...]
“Edit Walker”

Several weeks ago I was checking my son in at church. I was in the process of making the correct selections for the class he was going to be in when he noticed a button on the screen that read, “Edit Walker.” With his 9-year-old wheels turning he asked, “What does that mean?” I replied, [...]
Psalm 51 is the heart of David speaking with God concerning the sin he committed in adultery with Bathsheba. It’s interesting to point out verse 4, David’s confession to God, “Against you, and you alone, have I sinned;” The bottom line to David’s sin is that it was against God – his Heavenly Father. It brought [...]
I normally don’t title my posts until after I write. This one is a bit different. “It’s not about me.” Unfortunately, I have made my life about me. For several years I have listened to the silence. I’ve strained just to hear a little glimpse of the breath of God… Something. On Monday, of this week, [...]
It’s the end of one of those weeks I would much rather forget. I couldn’t wait to get to this day… FRIDAY!!! It’s way too easy to get lost in a terrible, no good, rotten week. It’s been one of those week were you begin to think, “I don’t think things could get worse!” Then [...]
I haven’t asked the question in awhile: How are you doing with your Read through the Bible for 2009? Are you on task with your goal for the year? Have you begun to develop a healthy habit in reading the Bible? I hope so! The past several weeks have been tough for me. My routine [...]
Can you see what God is doing?
Posted: May 24, 2009 in Calling, Confidence, Faith, Fear, Focus, Grace, Holy Spirit, Oswald Chambers, Spiritual Growth, Trusting God, VisionHave you ever ridden the log ride at Six Flags or at some other park? Lately my life has seemed much like I am riding a log ride (just not as fun). My life is in motion bumping up against the parameters (or shall I say the principles) of life. All the while, I know there is a destination [...]
God’s call…
Posted: February 2, 2009 in Calling, Faith, Obedience, Oswald Chambers, Spiritual Gifts, Spiritual GrowthThese words by Oswald Chambers always seem to stir my mind and my heart. Everyone is not called to preach. But we are all “called” to serve the Lord with the gifts that we have been given. Once someone begins to hear that call, a suffering worthy of the name of Christ is produced. Suddenly, [...]
