I will keep on obeying your instructions
forever and ever.
I will walk in freedom,
for I have devoted myself to Your commandments.
I will speak to kings about Your laws,
and I will not be ashamed.
How I delight in Your commands!
How I love them!
I honor and love Your commands.
I meditate on Your decrees. Psalm 119:44-48

This blog may become like what Seinfeld became – a tv show (or a blog, in my case) about “nothing”. I tend to ask God to lay on my heart what He wants me to write about, and in some instances, things will just happen and I’ll get an idea and start writing. Other times, I just get nothing. Nothing. Right now, I have nothing.
“How am I supposed to write a blog, God, if I’m not getting anything from you to write about?”

It was perfectly timed because my daughter had one of those ‘playing indoors and hitting the 55” HD TV’ wrong moments (see the 12/29 ‘God’s Righteous Anger’ Devotion), and I really wasn’t up for my initial reaction. So, I’m laughing as Snoopy boos the announcement of Charlie Brown, his owner, as the director and Schroeder plays ‘Jingle Bells’ practically breaking each piano key for emphasis. Then of course my heart warms as the Peanuts gang Read more…
