With all your heart
Jeremiah 9:11-13, “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord. Plans for welfare and not calamity to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when

The Gnat of sin
1 John 1:9, If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” This verse was part of the weekly woman’s Bible study I attend. I mentioned in one of my earlier blogs about the flower plant my brother gave me this summer.

Have you lost your flavor?
Matthew 5:13, “You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has become tasteless, how will it be made salty again? It is good for nothing anymore, except to be thrown out and be trampled under the foot of man.” I’ve always wondered what this verse meant. I have never heard that salt can

Eye Service
Ephesians 6:6-7, “not by way of eyeservice, as man-pleasers, but as slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart. With goodwill, render service, as to the Lord and not to men.” I’m sure you have heard the Southerner saying, “Bless his heart”. Often times this is said when someone tries to do

Come Jesus, Come
2 Peter 3:9, “The Lord is not slow about His promise as some count slowness but is patient toward you not wishing for any to perish, but for all to come to repentance.” I was listening to a song by CeCe Winans, called Come Jesus Come. It’s a beautiful song. It begins with how sometimes

Dull Hearts
Matthew 13:15, “And the heart of the people becomes dull, and with ears they scarcely hear, and they have closed their eyes lest they should see with their eyes and hear with the ears and understand with their heart and return and I shall heal them.” The heart of the people has become dull. This

God’s Spotlight
Matthew 18:1-4, “At that time the disciples came to Jesus saying, “Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” And He called a child to Himself and set him before Him and said, “Truly I say to you, unless you are converted and become like children, you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven.

Strength despite the storm
2 Thessalonians 3:3, “But the Lord is faithful, and He will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one.” A storm ripped through our area in June. It knocked down power lines outside of town and laid flat the cornfields. As we were driving to Terre Haute later that day, we saw the damage

My Cup Overflows
Psalm 23:5, “Thou dost prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; thou hast anointed my head with oil; my cup overflows.” I came across a clip while scrolling through YouTube the other day presented by a young man who shared a message about a sermon he had heard. The message was
