Somehow, in the midst of the violent storms that hit our lives from time to time; the following poetry from the Bible is flooded with hope. May you read this, and also experience that same hope. Hope in God. Hope that is able to lift you out of that darkness. Hope, in believing that God has a...
Once I was called to jury duty and during the selection process the judge asked us each questions.
On that particular day, I just happened to be reading the Max Lucado Bible. I had it in my hand as I approached the podium.
The judge said, "What is that you're reading?"
I said as I felt...
Note: Read the Kat Kerr soul posts starting from #1. I should have started with #10 because they appear "upside down" here on the blog.

Come Unto Me
(based on Mat 11:28)
Do hurts of this world; cares of your life
Crush the heart’s hope; pierce like a knife?
The Savior still speaks surely to thee:
‘If ye so labor, come unto Me.’
Families break up, by death do we part
Temptations assault, sinking the heart.
The Savior still...

When I was a youth growing up at home often times I would go on trips to a distant city for various reasons. As I was leaving my mother would say to me, "Call me collect when you get there."
The reason she wanted me to call her collect was because she could then refuse the call and not have to...
I hope you'll take a break from your busy day and take a minute with me to look at the road ahead.
Some of us will see a straight and narrow path. Others will see a long and winding road.
But we will all eventually hit the proverbial "fork in the road". Every single day we are faced with...
I waited patiently for the Lord; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.
2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and...
Emmaus by Tissot
This is where it began. Two hopefuls with Jesus in their midst. What an unstoppable movement. How much like the parable of the leaven in the dough. It grows and it grows. Elbows touch. Gazes fix one upon another. Questions get asked, "Have you heard about Him; about His...
The Boldness
Jan5 by justhappeneduponthis
My favourite chapter in the Book of Acts is the fourth. Peter and John have healed the crippled man at the Gate Beautiful and have taken him in hand into the temple after his long, sad absence. The authorities immediately set upon the disciples...
Sanctuary Stranger
Ryan, the priest-novitiate nudged his superior in the arm and pointed to a pew mid-way down the sanctuary on the right side.
"There he is again. Same time almost every day. Looks around and then just sits there for about twenty minutes. Sort of a seamy looking...
Love, Lift, Lighten
In the average church service today the focus goes something like this:
"Listen. Learn. Lunch". It seems of paramount importance to offer instruction in righteousness, with the congregation remaining largely passive, and with the sense of fellowship enhanced by...
Bending Like the Willows
(Taken from Like Christ by Andrew Murray - In His Humility)
The blessedness of a Christ-like humility is unspeakable. It is of great worth in the sight of God: "He giveth grace to the humble." In the spiritual life it is the source of rest and joy. To the...
Four Things
FOUR things a man must learn to do
If he would make his record true: To think without confusion clearly; To love his fellow man sincerely; To act from honest motives purely; To trust in God and Heaven securely.
(Henry Van Dyke)
Think...love...act...trust. A life that is...

Praise: What a wonderful God you are! Each day you bless. Your "right" is "might" O LORD. Your mercy endures forever.
Admit: I admit to feeling bored and unproductive. I admit to judging.
Request: Father, help me to love others as I would want to be loved, to accept them for who they are...
Do you ever feel like you aren't good enough for God? Do you feel that your life is filled with things that God wouldn't want you to serve Him, or that He wouldn't think you have anything to offer?
If so, think on this:
Noah was a drunk.Abraham was too old.Isaac was a daydreamer.Jacob...
Hope
It may be be difficult to find
It may seem far away
It may threaten to elude
But it is always near.
Putting all on this thin line
Wondering if I should
Knowing if I don't
It probably won't change.
Hope is offered freely
Given by our God
If I take this...
Double-mindedness…what’s that?
Jan12 by justhappeneduponthis
To listen to God in one ear and to the trends and wanderings of a hell-bent world in the other; to be consistently unsure of self; to miss the Lord’s smile; to sense the pollution of traitor in one’s being; to dodge repeatedly any...
On My Case
I remember a night in early summer when I was called as a solicitor to meet with a number of men at a Board meeting for a Christian retreat property near Wallaceburg.
The facility had a large main lodge and dining hall, numerous cabins, playing fields, expansive grounds and...
