One of the things I have grown in doing has been a photo a day for Advent and Lent. Usually there is one put out by RethinkChurch, a wonderful United Methodist site.

Rejected?
I ask, then, has God rejected his people? By no means! I myself am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, a member of the tribe of Benjamin. God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew. Do you not know what the scripture says of Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel? ‘Lord, theyContinue reading “Rejected?”
Will you go…
‘Now when forty years had passed, an angel appeared to him in the wilderness of Mount Sinai, in the flame of a burning bush. When Moses saw it, he was amazed at the sight; and as he approached to look, there came the voice of the Lord: “I am the God of your ancestors, theContinue reading “Will you go…”
for dust you are ~ March Lighthouse Article
for dust you are, and to dust you will return. Genesis 3:19 Lent is upon us! A time of sackcloth and ashes! A time for us to reflect and join Jesus in the desert as He prepares for His ministry. 40 days of wandering, thankfully not 40 years of wandering, but a time to focusContinue reading “for dust you are ~ March Lighthouse Article”
Don’t tell them…
And as they were coming down the mountain, he charged them to tell no one what they had seen, until the Son of Man had risen from the dead.

By faith Moses, when he was grown up, refused to be called a son of Pharaoh’s daughter, choosing rather to share ill-treatment with theContinue reading “Give it up!”

God laughs…
Why do the nations conspire, and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord and his anointed, saying, ‘Let us burst their bonds asunder, and cast their cords from us.’ He who sits in the heavens laughs; the Lord has them in derision. Then he will speak toContinue reading “God laughs…”
eye of a needle
A certain ruler asked him, ‘Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?’ Jesus said to him, ‘Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone. You know the commandments: “You shall not commit adultery; You shall not murder; You shall not steal; You shall not bear false witness;Continue reading “eye of a needle”

The Lord is my portion; I promise to keep your words. I implore your favor with all my heart; be gracious to me according to your promise. When I think of your ways, I turn my feet to your decrees; I hurry and do not delay to keep your commandments. Though the cords of the wicked ensnare me, I doContinue reading “competition”
