#WednesdayWalk—Searching the Night Sky

In this Wednesday Walk post, two men examine the enticing words of a man against those who truly seek God and His Word. Their search draws them heavenward.

Vignettes—Approval

Their eyes are upon me. What are they thinking when they look at me? I don’t feel like I fit in, but I remain standing in this crowd. Where do I belong? From across the street I see him standing there with welcoming eyes, telling me to join him. I want to cross the street […]

Vignettes—Humbling

Power and position. He stared in the mirror, proud of himself. Yet he felt uneasy. There was something unsettling deep inside him, something drawing him to a place without power and prestige to give of his time and resources. Why would he humble himself and stoop to such a lowly place? He belonged in the […]

Vignettes—Forgotten

The air chilled him to the bone. He pulled his coat tighter around himself as he walked, making his rounds. Another lonely night shift in the deserted office building, watching and waiting.

Month after month her prayers went unanswered. It seemed nothing would change. How could things be different? […]

Vignettes—Impossible

“It would take a miracle,” he said as he slowly sat on a rickety chair in front of the fireplace. He set his cell phone on the end table and looked at his friend. “It’s hopeless. Nothing is going to change.” His friend joined him and watched the glowing embers. He sat silent for a […]

Jars Filled With Faith #WednesdayWalk

I sat down after a long day to rest my weary body after a day of toil in the fields. My young children came to me and a I greeted them with a hug. How blessed I felt as I gazed above the heads of my children in my embrace at my beautiful wife preparing our evening meal. She smiled at me. Suddenly this moment was interrupted by a knock at the door…
