Ps. 103:10 He has not punished us for all our sins, nor does he deal with us as we deserve. Growing up, I did not like it when I was punished for things I did wrong. My dad was from the old school and was not afraid to punish his children. Back then, […]

Dance of the Similes and Metaphors by Precarious Yates
Recently, I read a story that pulled me in so strongly that by the third page I completely forgot I was reading. I later went back to study what it was the author did to pull me in so quickly. Then I saw it. The author employed similes and metaphors in a masterful […]

“Feeling from the Inside Out” by Chad Young
If you haven’t seen the animated movie Inside Out yet, whether or not you have kids, you’ve got to see it. I purchased it on DVD and watched it with my kids on Friday night, and it’s led to quite a bit of interesting discussion among our family. It’s one of those movies […]

Ps. 103:8 The LORD is merciful and gracious; he is slow to get angry and full of unfailing love. What a wonderful verse to meditate upon today! The Lord is merciful. Mercy is God withholding from us that which we deserve. We don’t deserve anything good from God’s hands. We deserve nothing but […]

Them that honor me I will honor. (1 Samuel 2:30) Do I make the honor of God the great object of my life and the rule of my conduct? If so, He will honor me. I may for a while receive no honor from man, but God will Himself put honor upon me […]

Be Ye…But Are We? by Lynn Mosher

In each one, a blessing is attached when we are… poor in spirit mournful meek hungry and thirsty for righteousness merciful pure in heart peacemakers persecuted As […]

Ps. 103:3 He forgives all my sin and heals all my diseases. Don’t overlook the fact that the Lord forgives ALL our sin. When we let Jesus become our Savior, there is not one sin, no matter how big or little it may be, untouched. He is able to do it, and He […]
