Pruning
“While every branch that does bear fruit He prunes, so that it will be even more fruitful” (John 15:2b).
Every spring I can hardly drive by a garden market without stopping and buying one more plant or bush that I absolutely must have. I can always find a place to plant it. After living on the same property for 12 years,... >Read More

“Because the Lord is my Shepherd, I have everything that I need.” Psalm 23:1
One night, just before bedtime, I was in the bathtub reading my Bible. (I wouldn’t recommend it—your Bible can get kind of wet sometimes) I was reading Psalm 23. After I finished reading I meditated on that Psalm. I was going through a particularly difficult...... >Read More

Freedom from Sin
"So there is now no condemnation awaiting those who belong to Christ Jesus" (Romans 8:1).
It was Communion Sunday, a time to reflect on Christ’s suffering and death and to think about the payment for our guilt and sin. As I sat in church, I noticed a couple in the pew in front of me. In the past year, he... >Read More
