Psalm 28 Meditation: Hebrews - It is amazing what people forget as they get older. They move on to better or more ‘advanced’ things and forget the simple. How many parents have metaphorically pulled out their hair while trying to help their children with elementary math homework? While alright to forget basic algebra, it is …

Psalm 25 Meditation: John –Humanity has made a habit out of discovering, rejecting, and returning to new ideas. How long did it take between the discovery that the earth was round to when it was no longer blasphemous to say it was round? That discovery was no where near as important as what Jesus is …

Psalm 148 Meditation: Genesis – When we read the story of Noah, we tend to focus on the world covering flood or the rainbow covenant. We forget about the animals.

Psalm 20 Meditation: Hebrews – Somewhere along the line, our culture decided that rest equals laziness. Haw you ever been physically or mentally exhausted but couldn’t allow yourself to rest because there’s something else you could be doing? This is not God’s plan for us.

Psalm 17 Meditation: John – This is Jesus’ first open miracle. He mentions that his time has not yet come. It’s also mentioned that after this first revelation of his glory, his disciples believed in him.

Psalm 18:1-20 Meditation: Genesis – Cain’s banishment from God’s sight did not stop the propagation of Cain’s descendants. He became the ancestor of those who live in tents and raised animals, those who play stringed instruments and pipes, and those who craft tools put of bronze and iron. Why do you think it was important …

Psalm 14 Meditation: Hebrews – This passage is deceptively powerful. It says that Jesus is unashamed to calls us brothers and sisters. Think about that for a moment.

Psalm 6 Meditation: John – In this passage, John the Baptist tells the priests and Levites that he is not the Messiah but the one preparing the way for him. They even ask if John is Elijah or a Prophet. John had his own position. He is the fulfillment of Isaiah’s prophecy. John recognizes his …

Psalm 7 Meditation: Genesis – How many creatures were tried out as helpers for Adam before God made Eve? Humans are very different from every other creature in creation.

Psalm: 146 Meditation: Ephesians – Predestination can be a hard pill to swallow, especially since we are socially driven to ‘stand on our own two feet’ and ‘pull ourselves up by our bootstraps.’ We are surrounded by people extoling the fact that they fought for everything they have with no help as if that was …
