Psalm: 118 Meditation: RomansAbraham was justified by faith; by believing in God and the promises that God had made to him and to his family. No act or work made Abraham worthy of God’s love or forgiveness. We often see people try to work through a checklist of all the good things that they can …

Psalm: 91 Meditation Galatians: I have often wondered of how much interest Jewish history was to the newly converted Galatians. How could they appreciate or identify with Abraham, Hagar and Mount Sinai? I don’t think they can any more than we. Albeit, we are children of the free woman, as it were, “born from above. …

Psalms: 136 Meditation Hebrews: Because he is the father of the faithful, Abraham is held here before us as an example. And why not? He was 75 when called by God to pull up stakes in the city of Ur and just follow God’s lead. So, like a nomad, he and his family eventually made …
