The King Of Glory

Throughout the Bible, when people came near God’s glory they collapsed in His presence. But we also find that the Incarnation of Jesus makes it possible for us to joyfully stand in His presence forever!

A Cracked Pot

The pottery wheel brings the writhing clay to life, its whirring pulses through the hands, moulding the sticky gooey mess, growing its potential and finding its nature through touching, loving and caressing the dirty lump until it reveals its hidden glory. — Steadily the rhythm grows and a shape is formed, a vessel glad to be created, as the potter boldly pulls and pursues the pleasure…

Intentional Wildflowers

Thanks be to God! My husband’s home finally sold. The closing will be on May 1st! We give the credit to God for the answers to our prayers. I mentioned in an earlier blog about the $60K estimate for the plumbing issues. But God — and a dear couple in our community. This couple assured us that they would pray – intentionally – every day until the house sold. That’s the kind of friends we all…

The radiance of God's Glory

The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven. Hebrews 1:3 (New International Version) Hebrews 1:3 speaks of Jesus as “the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being.” This verse encapsulates the…

Wednesday of Holy Week (John 13:21-32)

There’s a lot that’s out of our control. Yet, we always have the choice of self-control concerning our words and actions. Things like kindness, empathy, and love are within our ability to choose.

The Lord’s Supper, by Rubem Zevallos Técnica After saying this Jesus was troubled in spirit and declared, “Very truly, I tell you, one of you will betray me.” The disciples looked at one another, uncertain of whom he was speaking. One of his disciples—the one whom Jesus loved—was reclining close to his heart; Simon Peter therefore motioned to him to ask Jesus of whom he was speaking. So while…

Jesus Teaches US to Pray for Others by Example

Each Sunday during Lent we have been looking at prayers offered by the Apostles for the new believers in Christ. Each time we have seen their heartfelt love for their friends and deep conviction that their faith grow and develop. Today on this 4th Sunday of Lent I want to look at Jesus’ prayer recorded in John 17. I have chosen verses 20-26 but the whole chapter is Jesus’ prayer. John 17:20-26…

Don’t Steal God’s Glory

We have to be aware of celebrating our successes in a way that robs God of His glory.

Belshazzar gave his gods credit for what Jehovah God had done. I think we are in danger of doing the same things when we toast our own success with words like: “That was a lucky break!” “I’m so smart!” “Look what I have accomplished!” “Fortune favors the brave!” “I’m glad the ball finally bounced my way!” This attitude raises a glass to our own accomplishments or the gods of luck and fortune.…

Give God Glory Rather Than Advice

19 “Where is the way to the dwelling of light, and where is the place of darkness, 20 that you may take it to its territory and that you may discern the paths to its home? 21 You know, for you were born then, and the number of your days is great! 22 “Have you entered the storehouses of the snow, or have you seen the storehouses of the hail, 23 which I have reserved for the time…

Considering Psalms 7, Psalm 8

(Image credit – Bible.com) Please read Psalm 8 in preparation for this reflection on what it says. The translation I am using is the Complete Jewish Bible, 1998, David Stern, trans. Psalm 8 is a very dense, compact reflection about the whole order of creation and the reality of the experience of the world we find ourselves enveloped in. It is a “Psalm” of David – a sacred poem-song. The…

Dealing with Disrespect and Disbelief (John 12:34-50)

"One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious." Carl Jung

Christ and the Pharisees, by Anthony van Dyck (1599–1641) The crowd spoke up, “We have heard from the Law that the Messiah will remain forever, so how can you say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up’? Who is this ‘Son of Man’?” Then Jesus told them, “You are going to have the light just a little while longer. Walk while you have the light, before darkness overtakes you. Whoever walks in the dark…

Shepherds take a Walk towards Jesus

What would be your reaction to the appearance of the angels and the multitude of heavenly hosts praising God in the middle of your work day? Amazement, curiosity, hope, awe, or all of these? We can only imagine what these humble shepherds experienced and felt. The Bible records part of their reaction in Luke 2:14-15. “Glory to God in the highest,And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!” 15 So it…
