What is it about night that makes the problem bigger? There’s just something about night. It’s a proven fact that a fever increases at night. Pain is worse at night. Fear is stronger at night. When I’ve stayed with someone in the hospital at night, the hardest time is between 2 and 5 am. It [...]

Prayer – In the Time of Despair
Posted in devotionals, Prayer, Praying the Psalms on February 8, 2011 | 1 Comment »
You can read scripture just as well as I can, but let me direct you to Psalm 6. As I normally begin Monday morning reading the Psalm for the week, God (in His Grace) directed me another way yesterday morning. This Word would not have spoken to me yesterday as it did this morning. I [...]

After yesterday’s post, many have asked just what the “ah-ha” moment was. So, here it is. I have spent the past three years studying the Psalms (taking one Psalm per week, reading it in as many translations as possible, then “dissecting” it while meditating, praying and exploring its meaning).

As I am working on the studies for the Daily Bible Study series, I am finding (what I am calling) “Eternal principles” or “Divine One-Liners” scattered all throughout Scripture. These are single “nuggets of gold” that jump out at you from within a given passage. Now, we all know the dangers of “proof-texting”; that is, [...]
A Prayer of Psalm 9

Oh Father, I will thank You with all my heart – with all that I am! Oh, do not let my lips be silent, but let me continually speak of all Your wonders. I am so excited and thankful for what You have done and for who You are. I find myself singing, humming, whistling [...]
