IN THE MORNING!

ByDr. Mark September 6, 2025 2 Comments
“But I will sing about your strength; every morning I will sing aloud of your constant love.You have been a refuge for me, a shelter in my time of trouble.” (Psalm 59:16 Good News Translation) When I read the verse above, I was just going to focus on reminding you to sing to the Lord in the sanctuary in the morning, Sunday. But you don’t need a reminder, right? So, instead of a reminder,...

RESSURECTION MORNING REPEAT!

ByDr. Mark April 20, 2025 0 Comments
May you be blessed on this special day, a day that sparks reassurance for believers, saved by grace through faith! It is Resurrection Day, or as some of you refer to it,” Easter.” Hopefully, if you use the latter term, it has a holy significance and it does not just point to a holiday significance. Hopefully, your focus is on the devoted Lamb of God and not just the delicious ham and side...

“But we do see Jesus, who was made lower than the angels for a little while , crowned with glory and honor because of His suffering of death, so that by the grace of God He might experience death for everyone.” (Hebrews 2:9 The Amplified Bible) Whether you pronounce “present” as pres-ent, meaning to be somewhere or pre-sent, referring to one who will give something, or still yet you...

THE BEST THINGS HAPPEN IN THE MORNING!

ByDr. Mark December 15, 2024 0 Comments
I won’t argue against the position that good things happen in the dark times of life, literally or figuratively. However, I will put forth the thought that the best things happen in the morning. The singing of the birds in the morning, the sun coming out of its overnight hiding in the morning, and the sureness of being blessed when we see a day we have never seen before happens in the morning....

THE CASE OF THE MORNING ATTIRE

“And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.” (I Corinthians 13:13 New King James Version) The title above sounds like it would be fitting for an episode in the old, but still televised, Perry Mason Series, “The Case of the Morning Attire.” Hopefully, as with the TV series, the title is intriguing and has you anticipating what this meditation is all...

A MORNING WAKE UP CALL!

“Behold, My Servant, whom I uphold; My Chosen One in whom My soul delights.I have put My Spirit upon Him; He bring forth justice to the nations. He will not call out or shout aloud, nor make His voice heard in the street. A broken reed He will not break and a dimly burning wick He will not extinguish ; He will faithfully bring forth justice. He will not be disheartened or crushed ; He...

WHAT’S MISSING?

ByDr. Mark August 20, 2024 0 Comments
When I was hired at a local TV station to be the “Film Librarian,” I was trained by the person who had been promoted to the print shop. While learning how to ship movies and films to other stations in the country, either by air or rail, we took the time to get to know each other. I was 17 years old, and he was 27. Disregarding the age difference, to keep our dialogue going I asked this...

“I, Paul, am on special assignment for Christ, carrying out God’s plan laid out in the Message of Life by Jesus. I write this to you, Timothy, the son I love so much. All the best from our God and Christ be yours! Every time I say your name in prayer—which is practically all the time—I thank God for you, the God I worship with my whole life in the tradition of my ancestors. I miss you a...

GET UP, PICK UP, & WALK!

“Now in Jerusalem, by the Sheep Gate, there is a pool which in Hebrew is called Bethesda, having five porticoes. In these porticoes lay a multitude of those who were sick, blind, limping, or paralyzed. Now a man was there who had been ill for thirty-eight years. Jesus, upon seeing this man lying there and knowing that he had already been in that condition for a long time, said...

IN THE WE HOURS

“Hear my cry, O God; attend to my prayer.  From the end of the earth, I will cry to You, when my heart is overwhelmed; lead me to the rock that is higher than I.” (Psalm 61:1-2 NKJV) There is not a typo in the title above.  I mean “We” and not “Wee.”  You may read this in the wee hours of the morning today, between midnight and when the sun rises.  Or perhaps your...
