“Jabez was more honorable than his brothers. His mother had named him Jabez, saying, “I gave birth to him in pain.” Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, “Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted his request.” (John 5:1-9a NLT Version) This is your Sunday Share meditation....

Give Him your loyal devotion; give Him the best that you have.” (First verse of Give of Your Best to the Master, written in 1864 by Charlotte A. Barnard) This is your Monday Short meditation. As...

“You should each judge your own conduct.” (Galatians 6:4a Good News Translation) This is your Monday “Short” meditation. Like a surgeon, strategically trained and equipped with specialized skills, carefully performs an operation on a patient, and following the prescribed steps to perform a major procedure, I moved from aisle to aisle, purchasing the items on the shopping list that had...

Let’s look at three perspectives related to “making big things out of small things.” Quickly, we will look at it from the view of a second grader, the view of a slacker, and then the view of the Savior. A second grader had completed a Q&A administered by his teacher. One of the questions was, “When you stub your toe, is that a big thing or a small thing?” While the faces of many...

“17 If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to rescue us from the furnace of blazing fire; [and He will rescue us from your hand, O king. 18 But even if He does not, let it be known to you, O king, that we are not going to serve your gods nor worship the golden statue that you have set up.” 19 Then Nebuchadnezzar was filled with wrath, and his facial expression was changed...

The school year had just ended and in anticipation of his two sons crying out, “There’s nothing to do,” a father prepared a garden bed on the west side of the house, a location that also benefited from the sun’s southern exposure.

“Set your minds on the things that are above, not on the things that are on earth.” (Colossians 3:2 NASB) This is your Monday Short meditation. Unless the Lord says otherwise, today, December 1, 2025, starts the last month that I will be publishing daily on markwritesdaily.com, not missing a day over the last 9 years. My anointing as a minister of the gospel has not changed, but my...
