“They go from strength to strength; Each one appears before God in Zion.” (Psalm 84:7, NKJV) History can be a wonderful blessing to those who resolve to both know and remember its relevance to the present! Noted author David McCullough expresses it this way: “History is a guide to navigation in perilous times. History is […]
“Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.” (Psalm 136:1) After a recent study of Psalm 136 and its numerous declarations that the Lord’s mercy endures forever, I came upon the following in Psalm 33 and had to share it. As I was reading Psalm 33, the thought […]
“So then let us not sleep, as others do, but let us keep awake and be sober.” (1 Thessalonians 5:6, ESV) Have you ever been seated by the window on an airplane and watched the baggage handlers … treating every suitcase, box, tube, etc. with anything but genuine care? I can remember with great clarity […]
“As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.” (Colossians 2:6-7) I make no apologies … I am an avid coffee drinker! The day just doesn’t seem to start […]

You might also be asking, What in the world does this term have to […]
“He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters.” (Matthew 12:30, NKJV) It is never wise to compromise God’s biblical standards! Sobering words to consider for sure … for in the very thought of compromise we are saying His way is not enough or just doesn’t […]

“So likewise, whoever of you does not forsake all that he has cannot be My disciple.” (Luke 14:33, NKJV) There are many memories from my growing up on Hill Street in the Northwest portion of Oklahoma City.
