God who reveals

He is the God who reveals. And draws people to Himself.

At the school where our children study in Singapore, a woman sees the invitation for mothers to gather and pray. 

So, she comes. Curious. Seeking.

I speak her heart language. So we meet later. And I explain the gospel. 

In a subsequent meeting, she repents and believes.

Meditate

“Meditate on the word of God.” I hear these words as a child. Not fully understanding what they mean. 

But memorize, early on, “I have treasured Your word in my heart, so that I may not sin against You” (Psalm 119:11). 

Treasuring His Word. 

Learning right and wrong. Wisdom and foolishness. Truth and deceit. 

That’s only the beginning.

Collecting dust

Desert town with main street revitalized. 

Colorful shops and cafes, side by side. In aged buildings freshly painted with desert hues. Sand and sage and purple.

We wander in the warren of shops connected through inner doors. And find antiques, curiosities, junk. 

Collecting dust.
