God doesn’t need us. Nope. He doesn’t. There is nothing He needs from us. 33Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable his judgments, and his paths beyond tracing out! 34“Who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been his counselor?” 35“Who has ever given … Continue reading The King Who Needs Nothing

Atrophy
Atrophy. I don't even like the sound of that word. Merriam-Webster defines it as: 1: A decrease in size or wasting away of a body part or tissue atrophy of muscles also : arrested development or loss of a part or organ incidental to the normal development or life of an animal or plant; 2 … Continue reading Atrophy
Don’t Forget The Captain
Allow me to share - again - from the Worthy Brief devotion: Hebrews 2:10-11 "For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.

Highway Help
I remembered this small event from my past, and I didn't really think it was "worth writing about" but I can't stop thinking about it, it has consistently popped up in my memory (that in itself is a surprise! - I'm old!) soooooo here it is. You have to remember this occurred 40 years ago! … Continue reading Highway Help

Pleasing God
God is the Most High God. YHVH, the Ancient of Days. Too many times we want Him to please us, and we take it for granted that He is pleased with us. With my great power and outstretched arm I made the earth and its people and the animals that are on it, and I … Continue reading Pleasing God
