Loving God’s Law
Oh, how I love your law! It is my meditation all the day. ~Psalm 119:97 I wonder how many Christians can honestly say they love God's law, let alone meditate on it. A love for God's law begins with a love for His Word, yet many struggle to read the Bible, as they...

SONY’S DEVOTIONS
Faithful vs. Famous
I was recently talking with a young man whose aspiration at this point in his life is to become famous. His reason stated is so he can reach more people with the Gospel but, while that may be true, I feel like it is as hard for a famous person to enter the Kingdom of...
Love Well
Happy New Year! It's hard to believe we are over a quarter of the way through this century. Those who are old enough remember Y2K and how some thought the world would end. But here we are, closer to the Lord's return and yet still here with work to do until He calls...
The Sin of Ingratitude
For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were...
Thankful for Rest
Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” ~Genesis 1:28 Contrary to what some may...
Judas vs. Peter
Then Judas, [Jesus'] betrayer, seeing that He had been condemned, was remorseful and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, saying, “I have sinned by betraying innocent blood.” And they said, “What is that to us? You see to it!” Then...
A Slippery Slope
And I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you in their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and your descendants after you. (Genesis 17:7) In the Book of Genesis, God created a covenant with Abraham, that He...
God Is in the Darkness
Then they said to Moses, 'You speak with us, and we will hear, but let not God speak with us, lest we die.' ... So the people stood afar off, but Moses drew near the thick darkness where God was. ~Exodus 20:19, 21 Can you relate to the children of Israel? "I don't...
If It Takes a Valley
If it takes a valley to really know Your grace And if it's in the desert where I'll meet You face to face Then turn this path I'm traveling to some dark and lonely place 'Cause if it takes a valley, then a valley's what I'll take (From If It Takes a Valley by Brian...
A Time for Hope
For there is hope for a tree, If it is cut down, that it will sprout again, And that its tender shoots will not cease. Though its root may grow old in the earth, And its stump may die in the ground, Yet at the scent of water it will bud And bring forth branches like a...

Calling the Talented
If you are not familiar with the Parable of the Talents, read Matthew 25:14-30 in your Bible and then come back to this. For those who know the story, let's continue. If you've heard a pastor preach on this passage, the emphasis has no doubt been on the unfaithful...
