This is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent to him priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, “Who are you?” And he confessed and did not deny, but confessed, “I am not the Christ.” They asked him, “What then? Are you Elijah?” And he *said, “I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” And he...
“O Lord, You have searched me and known me.
You know when I sit down and when I rise up;
You understand my thought from afar.
You scrutinize my path and my lying down,
And are intimately acquainted with all my ways.
Even before there is a word on my tongue,
Behold, O Lord, You know it all.
You...
Hebrews 11:3
3 By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible.
Is the universe a creation or the Creator?
What does the universe testify of?

“O that You would slay the wicked, O God;
Depart from me, therefore, men of bloodshed.
For they speak against You wickedly,
And Your enemies take Your name in vain.
Do I not hate those who hate You, O Lord?
And do I not loathe those who rise up against You?
I hate them with the utmost hatred...
“My son, keep my words
And treasure my commandments within you.
Keep my commandments and live,
And my teaching as the apple of your eye.
Bind them on your fingers;
Write them on the tablet of your heart.
Say to wisdom, ‘You are my sister,’
And call understanding your intimate friend;
That they...
There is only one Spirit of the Father, and all those who are a part of it throughout history are on the same frequency, no matter how much their identities differs. They are one with God and each other. Those who claim to be on track but do not follow His Will stand out, their adversarial...
Our Cloister Garden
This morning, we experienced a brief but gentle rain. Our cloister garden, dark green and vibrant, seemed to come alive, with all the trees and plants looking 'happy'. For nearly 55 years, I have walked through this garden, traveling to and from church. During the day, I...
Blessed Divine Love,
Greatest gift, bestowed in staggering simplicity:
For there was
A sentence over us, a Cross;
A Sacrifice, then doubt sealed by man;
A stone rolled, where, aside, Jesus posed;
A woman scurrying back
To utter the timeless “Risen!”;
Christ seen, listened to, observed in...
2 Peter 3:18
"But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever. Amen."

What does our president know? Who is really running the countryy?
And btw, where are all the deals? China is being tough....and Trump is caving:
We learn from reading Ephesians 5:1-6 that we are to be followers of God/Christ who walk in love, a love which comes from God and which is obedient to his commands. And we are to be becoming like Jesus in mind, character, and action, by the Spirit, in the power of God. We are no longer to be...
Big news this week includes the fact that there is a new Pope. I am not Catholic, but I am hopeful that this pope is compassionate and godly.
Saw this today, and thought "yeah, he was born in Chicago so this is how he should have been introduced as the Pope...

“If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it from you; it is better for you to enter life crippled or lame, than to have two hands or two feet and be cast into the eternal fire. If your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and throw it from you. It is better for...
As much as was available to spare for wedging the coverings in to stop entry of water was used. Doors that had been made for the homes were also flimsy and would not last with water any higher with pressure against them. Again Deseradar and the family with him called on Yahweh they knew to be...

Proverbs 30:4 has five questions:
Who has ascended into heaven, or descended?
Who has gathered the wind in His fists?
Who has bound the waters in a garment?
Who has established all the ends of the earth?
What is His name, and what is His Son’s name,
If you know? (NKJV)
I believe that the Bible...
