Irrational Forgiveness
https://www.facebook.com/share/r/17LGGQqjqK/?mibextid=wwXIfr “Besides this you know the time, that the hour has come for you to wake from sleep. For salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed.” Romans 13:11 (ESV) While teaching, I often reference how Potipher must have relayed to his wife that the Jewish boy she had falsely accused of…

Vigils Calling Us to Vigilance
“O soul, are you weary and troubled? No light in the darkness you see. There’s light for a look at the Savior, And life more abundant and free. Turn your eyes upon Jesus, Look full in His wonderful face, And the things of earth will grow strangely dim, In the light of His glory and…

“When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll; Whatever my lot, thou hast taught me to say, It is well, it is well with my soul.” I have posted the story of the song “It is Well” before and in the face of the tragedy that has unfolded in Texas, it seems inadequate yet relevant to post…

For whoever needs to know this. You are loved.
Can I tell you a love story so marvelous to tell and too lasting to understand? A love that can only be accepted. It’s a story about love, rejection, correction and election. A story of choice with bitter ends and beautiful beginnings. A story of a love so deep, so wide, so far, so…

Boldly Brewed
We are out of synch at the Mullins house. Somehow after many years of guarding timing, we have managed to need coffee on the odd weeks when it is not on sale. Troubling! “See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what…

Would You Have Listened?
My dad became infinitely strong in my eyes, when he became most vulnerable through confession to me. “When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways.” 1 Corinthians 13:11 ESV I choose laughter. I…

God Don’t Make No Junk!
You are fearfully and marvelously made. How can I tell you that? Well, the Bible tells us that in Psalms. We’re also told that God has uniquely made each of us and knows us by name. The unique comment being proven by science through the recognition of DNA, that is unique to each of us. …

Another Day
I’ve always been an early riser. And that does not mean that I don’t sleep in. I often get up between 3:30 am and 4:00 am and read. Pray. Drink coffee. Ponder. Write. Years ago I read a life impacting statement addressed to people like me who ‘are not good sleepers.’ What does that mean? …
