Have you ever longed for a glimpse of God’s glory? Moses did, and I love his boldness when he pleads with God, “Now show me your glory.” But for God to answer that prayer, Moses had to allow God to put him in a place chosen by God – and that place was a cleft […]

Do you ever wish for a burning bush experience – a time when God supernaturally appears to give you instructions or direction? Well, apparently even that’s not always enough. There stood Moses with dramatic evidence of God’s call on His life (who could want more proof than a flaming bush in the desert?), and yet […]

Did you know that you can’t exaggerate God? Think of Him in the greatest and most glorious way possible, and He is greater and more glorious. Stretch your mind to its full limit to think of His power, and He is even more powerful. Try to imagine a love that is absolutely pure and perfect, […]

My Scripture reading for today was in 1 John where I read these words, “…continue in Him.” (2:28 NIV) Other versions use the word “abide” or “remain,” but the original word also means to tarry. I like that thought – “tarry in Him.” There is such a sense of unhurriedness about it. However, it became […]

“…for who is he who will devote himself to be close to me?” declares the Lord. (Jeremiah 30:21 NIV) I have always been challenged by this question. Is it me? Am I “devoted” to being close to God? The Hebrew use of that word implies a giving over even to the point of death. In […]

“Even the sparrow has found a home…a place near your altar…” (Psalm 84:3) I like to think that an actual event prompted the words of Psalm 84:3. It’s obvious from the preceding verses that the Psalmist loved the house of God. It’s not hard to imagine that one day, standing quietly in the awesome holiness of […]
