Unexpected ways

Unexpected ways. How He pierces hearts. Pursues the lost lamb.

Opens eyes to see. And ears to hear.

During our years in a desert city, a believer shares her story. Tells me the very moment she turned and followed Christ. 

Reading Scripture. And not the usual evangelistic passage.

But pointing to the One who is worthy of our praise.

dabbling

Dabbling in the Word of God.

Searching for a verse that fits. And serves my agenda. It happens.

Comfort levels sometimes dictate this. Looking for a way to stay. Or leave.

Wanting His Word to match my ways. My methods. 

And back me up.

Disregard for Truth

The story of Jehoiakim in Jeremiah 36 gets me every time. The king of Judah showing blatant disregard for Truth. Seeking to destroy the word of the Lord.
