It’s Friday…He Is Never Too Late
Patience is one of the hardest virtues for us to understand. We pray to an all-powerful God. We know He is able to help us at any moment. We know that He who defines Himself as “love” and gave His Son for us to prove it is not reluctant to help us. So, when we…
It’s Friday…Ask Him Now. Ask Often
If there is anything we lack in this world it is wisdom. God knows we need it, but do you ever wonder why He has set up a process for us to gain it? Why would He not just give it to us? Simply because in us coming to Him and asking for His wisdom…
It’s Friday…We Are Owned By Another
Life is a series of decisions. Some are relatively minor; others have lasting impact. We often act on the minor decisions – what to eat, what to wear, who to talk to – from our default behavior patterns, giving them little thought. With the serious choices – which job to take, where to live, who…
It’s Friday…If We Will Accept It
It’s a new year. If you’re like most people, a new year begs us to ask for something new; new opportunities, new friendships, new adventures, new. . . fill in the gap. Most likely, what will not make the list is a new mind. Most of us like our minds. One day the apostle Paul…
It’s Friday…Trophies of His Grace
How does God want to use you in 2026? How adequate do you feel about God using you? Have you ever compared yourself to those He used in the Scripture? Let’s look at a few. It’s quite an intimidating list, if you think about it. These are the heroes of our faith. God’s anointed. Roles…
It’s Friday…He’s Looking For Room
When you think about it, the invasion of this planet by God in the form of a tiny baby born on the wrong side of the tracks is ridiculously subtle. But it wasn’t so subtle for a young Jewish girl named Mary. After she got over an angel scaring the daylights out of her, she…
It’s Friday…What Greatness Is
It’s Christmas. Jesus didn’t ride into this world on a gilded chariot. He was born in a stable. He left His radiant appearance to be clothed in a human body subject to temptation and pain. “Unless I wash you, you have no part with Me.” (John 13:8) Jesus’ illustration of the incarnation must have made little…
It’s Friday…But What An Enigma!
It’s Christmas. We celebrate the Christ, Jesus who was an enigma. He came into this world as a child of a working-class family from a notably unnoteworthy region of the country. He amazed people with His teaching and His miracles, but He always defied their expectations. When they expected Him to act like an average…
It’s Friday…Be So Scandalous
It’s Christmas. Isaiah prophesied about the coming “Prince of Peace” (9:6). The angels declared peace on earth in Luke 2:14 as they announced the coming Lord. But Jesus had a different declaration. “Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.” (Matthew…
It’s Friday…And God Never Falls Short
It’s a common human tendency to focus on what we lack. Whether we’re looking at our possessions or problems, we usually zero in on the downside and try to figure out what to do about it. We may have most of what we need toward a certain expense or be mostly pleased with a project.…
