Psalm 36 – Daily Bread From the Psalms
Daily Bread:Thoughts & Prayers from the Psalms ~ Psalm 36 ~ Have you ever driven through a rugged mountain pass? Or looked up from the bottom of the Grand Canyon? Or watched a big storm blow in across the ocean? There is something almost magnetic that grabs our souls as we experience the grandeur of nature, and therefore our own smallness in it. We know instinctively the power of the winds and the waters. Without a single word from these inanimate parts of creation, we respect them. We watch in awe as they demonstrate their sheer power on this earth. Yet there are so many who have a healthy reverence…

Psalm 107 Daily Bread
“Let the one who is wise heed these things and ponder the loving deeds of the Lord.” ~Psalm 107:43 Just a few thoughts I had this morning… I hope this encourages someone else as much as the Lord has encouraged me! There is SO much grace waiting for us that we leave “on the table”. Our Father has the most beautiful table we can imagine (more than we can imagine actually!) set and waiting for us, and a seat there right beside His.

Psalm 34 – Daily Bread From the Psalms
Daily Bread: Thoughts & Prayers from the Psalms ~ Psalm 34 ~ Are you afflicted? Poor in spirit? Troubled? Take heart! The eyes of the LORD are on you! Come with me and let’s “taste and see” just how GOOD the Lord is! This is David’s exhortation to all who would sing this Psalm along with him. Psalm 34 was written by David when he was in quite a bind. Saul wanted to kill him, and David was on the run. He escaped and hid where no one would ever think to look. What is the least likely place you could think of for David to go? Yep. He…

Psalm 33 – Daily Bread From the Psalms
Daily Bread: Thoughts & Prayers from the Psalms ~ Psalm 33 ~ “For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him.” ~Colossians 1:16 ALL things have been created THROUGH Him, and FOR Him! Did you catch that?! That means me…and you…and our kids…and their kids…and your nice neighbor…and your not-so-nice neighbor…and the pompous politician…and the angry news anchor…and the angsty teenager…and the addict…and the abuser… and well, you get the picture. For “from heaven the LORD looks down and sees ALL mankind; from His dwelling…
