Rahab: Waiting for redemption (Her story is found in Joshua 2-6) I’d like to take a moment to talk about something that a lot of people might not consider when reading Rahab’s story. Rahab was left waiting. I don’t know how long but some scholars said it could have been up to two weeks. Rahab […]

Recently while reading and listening to a devotion, I came across a verse that jumped out at me. It was Mark 11:14 but it was the last part that really spoke to me, or shall I say convicted me. It was from a section of Scripture leading up to the betrayal and arrest of Jesus

One morning several years ago, I was trying to comb and style my daughter’s hair. The bathroom mirror was completely fogged up, and she was unable to see what I was doing. She made a comment about me not being able to see but I assured her that I could see her hair just fine.
God’s Will Is Always Best I have been reading through the Bible in chronological order this year. I recently read through the story of Hezekiah, king of Judah, and his son Manasseh. Their story spreads across multiple passages of Scripture which I have read many times. However, something was said in one of the commentaries
