Psalm: 62 Meditation:Deuteronomy: Finish this line: “I have decided to follow ___.”In Exodus, Deut. 6, and in this passage in Deut. 30, Moses reminds the Israelites what God expects of those who belong to him. “Continue to choose life,” he implores, knowing what snares and other paths will entice people away.

Psalms 22, 95 Meditation Genesis: This is the first portrayal of the act of redemption – one life sacrificed in place of another.

Psalms: 22, 95 Meditation Romans: This is a passage about the importance death plays in our lives. The verb tenses used here (in English) throughout (when speaking of death) are all in the past whereas the tense used with “life” is in the present. Because we’re so tied to our bodily experience, it then becomes …

Psalm: 109 Meditation John: John opens this encounter, presumably with the scribes, elders, and Pharisees, with another identifying characteristic of Himself: “I am the light of the world…” (v. 12) These very words echo to the very first chapter of John: “What has come into being in Him was life, and the life was the …

Psalm: 40 Meditation John: Jesus is still talking about bread. Here, He proclaims that He is “the bread of life that comes down from heaven.” (v. 48) Jesus then makes a contrast between “the bread that comes down from heaven” and the manna in the wilderness. Exodus 16 talks of manna sometimes called “angel’s food.” …

Psalm: 50 Meditation Ecclesiastes: Verses 1-8 are fairly familiar – the older one is the more familiar these words are. These verseswere central to a song put out by The Byrds in1965 – see what I mean about more clarity with age (certainly in this case)? The title of the song was Turn, Turn, Turn. …

Psalms: 51:1-17 Meditation Zechariah: I have long thought that life on earth was irrepressible. Mount S. Helen’s erupted almost 40 years ago and today all the burned-out land has brought forth vegetation. Just so, God’s love for His creation. Here in Chapter 7 we see both the bitter and the sweet. Israel’s (man’s) hardness of …
