Jesus starts off by letting the Father of His promise to Him (17:2) It is always good to remind God of His word, not because He forgot but because we want Him to know that we have read His word. That we read it and have believed it was true. Jesus lets God know that He… Read more

I try to imagine what it would have been like to be in the synagogue on the day when Jesus did this:

Luke 4:16 Then Jesus came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up. As was His custom, […]

We are reminded of God’s love of the world that he created. In those few words we are made aware of why He gave His son. He would show us that His love is not just something He had written, but His…

The world will always try to steal your identity.

As I am in my home town, this issue shows […]

I believe that is why he weep, not for the death of Lazarus, but for the unbelief of those around Him, including Thomas.

John 11:16 In my culture we have a saying, “it be your own people”. it made me laugh a little, i saw that though things change they really remain the same. it was a new revelation to me that the people in the Bible were human not just some elaborate story.

In reply to - Georgina posted an update

I am struck by with the use of the word “innocent” by both Judas and Pilate in chapter 27.

I really enjoy Psalm 95. The beginning 7 verses are included in the Morning Daily Office which over the years has often been a part of my morning devotions.
