“You, God, are my God, earnestly I seek you; I thirst for you, my whole being longs for you, in a dry and parched land   where there is no water. I have seen you in the sanctuary    and beheld your power and your glory.” (Psalm 63:1 NIV) Just as David fellowshipped with the Lord when he was in the wilderness of Judah, you too can fellowship with the Lord every day, whether you are in...

“One thing I do know. I was blind but now I see!” (John 9:25b NIV) Many or most believers who were blind, can say, “But now they see.” Jesus made the difference for them, and for me too!

Good Tuesday morning! You had your short meditation yesterday. Well, today’s meditation is even shorter, just two quotes, a closing, and a scripture. Sis. M, a faithful servant of the Lord, who attends our church’s Friday Bible Study class said, and I quote, “God’s word is not antique.” The prophet Isaiah said it this way, and I quote for a second time, “The grass withers, the flower...

“Never envy the wicked! Soon they fade away like grass and disappear.Trust in the Lord instead. Be kind and good to others; then you will live safely here in the land and prosper, feeding in safety.

“Knowing the correct password—saying ‘Master, Master,’ for instance—isn’t going to get you anywhere with me. What is required is serious obedience—doing what my Father wills.
