Why do you dance?
devotion · *Sing to the LORD, all the earth; proclaim his salvation day after day. Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous deeds among all peoples. For great is the LORD and most worthy of praise; he is to be feared above all gods.* -
On Making Rules and Loving Neighbors
devotion · So the Pharisees and teachers of the law asked Jesus, “Why don’t your disciples live according to the tradition of the elders instead of eating their food with defiled hands?” 6 He replied, “Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you hypocrites as it is written: “‘These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me.They worship me in vain; their teachings are merely human rules.’” ~ Mark 7:5-7 -
Fresh Baked Bread
devotion · I love the smell of fresh baked bread. Wanda went through a period where she had a “bread” machine. I loved it when she baked bread. The aroma just permeated the house. The aroma would bring back some very good memories. -
I believe in the church
devotion · I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock, I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.” ~ Matthew 16:18-20 -
Lord I Believe –– Help My Unbelief
devotion · Jesus asked the boy’s father, ”How long has he been like this?”“From childhood,” he answered. ”It has often thrown him into fire or water to kill him. But if you can do anything, take pity on us and help us.”“‘If you can’?” said Jesus. ”Everything is possible for one who believes.”Immediately the boy’s father exclaimed, “I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!” ~ Mark 9:21-24
