Anyone who has followed my blog long enough, will know that I have written at various times about how obedience shows the Triune God that we love Him! Blog posts such as: Genesis 22: Obedience Leads to Blessings: Exodus 19:5 Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice, and keep my covenant, then ye shallRead More…
Subtitle: And From Where Do You Draw Your Peace? I wish to share two blog articles I wrote, roughly a year apart from each other. One addressed the Ebola scare in the fall of 2014, while the other one was looking down the pipe at world events, tell-tale signs of what we are now seeingRead More…
Numbers 18:20 And the LORD spake unto Aaron, Thou shalt have no inheritance in their land, neither shalt thou have any part among them: I am thy part and thine inheritance among the children of Israel.

The gentleness of the natural health regimen I can afford isn’t enough to combat some situations and today happened to be one of them. I wokeRead More…
In my devotional gallivanting one time, I ran across this verse: Isaiah 45:3 And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel. Many times, people associate the concept of darknessRead More…
Perhaps its timely as we get closer to Passover and Resurrection Sunday, that I would find myself going through Leviticus now in my personal devotions. The past few chapters have outlined various sacrifices for various situations both for the people, and for the priesthood in how they would carry out their duties. When we comeRead More…

(paid link to the left) This is a story of struggle, a story of frustration, a story of questions without answers, and yet also a story of encouragement, a story of the stabilizing power of faith in Jesus Christ, and a storyRead More…
