Dread and Fear

The disobedience of the first generation of Israelites to leave Egypt has cost them God’s promised land. Now a second generation of Israelites is preparing to enter the land. Deuteronomy 2:7 tells us, “These forty years the LORD your God has been with you; you have not lacked a thing. (NASB).” God has provided for […]

Out of My Way

It can be hard to understand God’s purposes. Our limited vision only enables us to see what is present in our lives, not God’s ultimate plan. It can cause us to question what God calls us or others to do. In Mathew 16:21-23, “Jesus began to show His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, […]
