The Way of the Righteous :: Quietly Through Thursday Link-Up #38

January 10, 2019 No Comments

According to Psalm 1 the way of a righteous person is pretty simple: she stays away from temptation and she meditates on God’s word. And because she spends her time abiding in Jesus her life is fruitful, bringing glory to God the Father. I don’t know about you, but that sounds pretty good to me. I have been moving quietly through the Psalms for the last 10 days, handwriting each chapter, verse-by-verse, word-by-word. It didn’t take long before the Holy Spirit began to show me some truth that I had not noticed before. He also […]

Into the Holiest of All :: Quietly Through Thursday Link-Up #37

November 15, 2018 No Comments

This week, while reading quietly through Hebrews 9, I was convicted of my lack of reverence for the throne of grace. Coming into God’s presence, entering into the Holiest of All, should be done with nothing less than humble reverence for His goodness, His grace, and His glory.

Set Your Mind On Things Above :: Quietly Through Thursday Link-up #36

October 18, 2018 4 Comments

Set your mind on things above. It’s a verse that has been repeated a time or two in Christian circles. But what does it mean? And how does it help us follow after and walk with Jesus? If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear […]

For Good Works :: Quietly Through Thursday Link-Up #35

October 4, 2018 3 Comments

As Christians we know that we have been created in Christ Jesus for good works. But knowing this and doing this are two different things. It can get overwhelming and even paralyzing to think that God has called us to share the gospel and make disciples. So how do we do it? How do we complete this important work?

Justified by Faith :: Quietly Through Link-up #34

September 20, 2018 4 Comments

Over the past several weeks I have been wrestling with the ideas of faith, righteousness, and keeping the law, wondering how they all fit together. Actually, I have wrestled with these ideas many times in my life and throughout my walk with Christ. So here I sit again, with my Bible in my lap asking God to reveal His Gospel, His plan for salvation to me once again. This post may contain some affiliate links for your convenience.

Excel :: Quietly Through Thursday Link-up #33

September 6, 2018 2 Comments

Even so, since you are zealous for spiritual gifts, let it be for the edification of the church that you seek to excel. 1 Corinthians 14:12 Excel. don’t hold back. Go for it. Do the best you can in the ministry that you are called to, but… But not for yourself. Do it for others. Do it for the church. Do it so others can go out and excel as well. Run with them — your brothers and sisters in Christ. Cheer them on. Push them forward. Pray with them and for them. Praise with […]

When was the last time you were made aware of your sin and you took the time to repent? If you’re like me, it may take you a minute to remember when last this happened.

Of course you do, so lets read our Bibles, look at some awesome examples of boldness and then pray of an extra measure ourselves. This post may contain some affiliate links for your convenience.

June 21, 2018 6 Comments

“Only to the tribe of Levi he had given no inheritance; the sacrifices of the LORD God of Israel made by fire are their inheritance, as He said to them.” ~Joshua 12:14 Finally, after decades of wondering in the wilderness, Joshua leads the Israelites into the land promised to them by God and it was time to see which tribe would get which chunk of land. Reuben would get land. So would Simeon and Judah and Issachar. Zebulun would get land. The tribes of Dan and Naphtali also. Gad and Asher. The tribes of Josephs […]
