  • The Crux of Love: Humility

    The account of The Upper Room described the Passover Feast that Jesus and The Twelve had which is famously called The Last Supper. It happened during the late afternoon and evening hours before the Judgement Hall of Pontius Pilate. The first major event in The Upper Room was recorded in John 13:1-17, the well-known washing…

  • The Context of The Upper Room

    If we were to ask ourselves, “Is Jesus central in my thinking and living?” An honest answer to that would likely be something along the lines of, “Yes, but not always, and never as much as He deserves to be”. As Christians, we are a new creation so sin does not characterize our lives as…

  • Don’t Take The Bait

    Most Christians know that the devil prowls like a roaring lion waiting to devour someone and that we ought to resist tempation and flee from the devil. When we are weary, that is much easier said than done. But thanks be to God that in our weariness we have hope in Christ and that hope…

  • Battle Weary But Victorious

    Just pull up the news, observe a church event committee, or spend a hectic week in our homes and we will find that there is so much to battle out there as well as within us, and it often gets difficult to bear the weight of it. Rebellion, Sin, Divisiveness, Despair and Tragedy — these…

  • He Carries Us

    “Happy Monday”! That statement can either send surges of excitement of all the things we are going to accomplish or causes rolls of boiling anger or drudgery at all of the things we have to accomplish and how long the week will drag on until the weekend comes again. Where I am usually is somewhere…

  • Does God Count Our Tears?

    I had a relative ask, “Do you think God counts our tears? I want to believe He does”. What a sweet question that is and God gives an even sweeter answer to this in His Word. Throughout the last couple of weeks in these devotionals, I hope you are reminded that we have a Lord…

  • Jesus Brings Us Back To Sabbath Rest

    In Genesis 2:3, God rested after He finished the work of creation. He did not rest because He was tired or weary — God is perfect and limitless. By intentionally resting, God by His very action, declared that day to be holy. This provided an example of work patterns for His image bearers (that’s you…

  • God Creates Weakness

    We live in a time where weakness is not a favorable trait. We do our best to hide or downplay our weaknesses and paint ourselves in the best light to others. Even when we are among other believers, say for example, when we pray. We can put up this facade of greatness because we are…
