It’s a song, a litany sung by the over-comers of this world, who fight the good fight, who stay the course, who keep the faith. And what is the essence of the song? God is holy. If we could understand the full meaning of holiness, we might also prevail. Revelation 15:4 Who will not fear [...]

Dragons, Beasts, and 666
Posted in Eastertide, tagged 666, beast, Christ, dragon, end times, evil, God, good, John, Oz, prophecy, revelation on April 22, 2012 | 6 Comments »
I almost feel like Dorothy trying to navigate her way through the Land of Oz. But where she chanted lions and tigers and bears; we are told to beware of dragons, beasts, and 666. Dorothy and her friends didn’t know what to expect and honestly, either do we. Revelation 13:11-12a, 18b Then I [John] saw [...]
Seek Peace and Pursue It

Peace is another word for God as is Light and Love and Jesus. I seek and I find and then I must pursue the next seeking and the next finding. I Peter 3:11 They must turn from evil and do good; they must seek peace and pursue it. [Psalm 34:14] Through the course of this [...]
God Did This
Posted in Lent, tagged Acts, Creator, God, mindfulness, thanksgiving on April 4, 2012 | Leave a Comment »
God is a parent for human and all of creation. God is light and energy; God is quarks and God is Ceres, quasar OJ287, and IC1101 super galaxy, some of the largest things in the Universe. Have we noticed? Acts 17:27-28a God did this [creation] so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out [...]
Cycles of Sensitivity
Posted in Lent, tagged God, Holy Spirit, Isaiah, journaling, Lent, seeking, truth on March 26, 2012 | 2 Comments »
God is not a moving target. I may feel like it sometimes, but in my heart, I know, it’s not a God-problem, it’s a “me” problem. I am the one fluctuating between sensitivity to God’s presence and isolationism. Solution: grab hold when my pendulum swings in close. Isaiah 55:6 Seek the LORD while he may [...]
Perfect Truth
Posted in Lent, tagged God, human, Isaiah, paradox, relationships, relativism, seeking, truth on March 24, 2012 | Leave a Comment »
We live in a society of relativism. And this relativism gives permission for a wide range of beliefs and behaviors. On the other hand, there are groups of people who believe they have Truth and find nothing ironic in those truths colliding, creating wars, prejudice, and hate. Where is Truth in that? Isaiah 45:19 I [...]
Stop! Just Stop!
Posted in Lent, tagged God, Isaiah, justice, Lent, oppressed, orphans, poor, renewal, repentance, righteousness, selfishness, widows on March 23, 2012 | 2 Comments »
Any change, any redirection, any assessment of the present requires a stop. Plain and simple. Isaiah 1:16b-17 . . . stop doing wrong. Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow. When our high energy Boston Terrier, Rocky, is over the [...]
