Believe Without Seeing
Now Thomas, called the Twin, one of the twelve, was not with them when Jesus came. The other disciples therefore said to him, “We have seen the Lord.” So he said to them, “Unless I see in His hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, andContinue reading “Believe Without Seeing”
Change!
Simon Peter said to them, “I am going fishing.” They said to him, “We are going with you also.” They went out and immediately got into the boat, and that night they caught nothing. But when the morning had now come, Jesus stood on the shore; yet the disciples did not know that it wasContinue reading “Change!”
Walking with God
Now behold, two of them were traveling that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was seven miles from Jerusalem. And they talked together of all these things which had happened.

That’s why scripture says, When he climbed up to the heights, he captured prisoners, and he gave gifts to people.

The one who went down is the same one who climbedContinue reading “Devotions for Lent–Harrowing of Hell!”
Good Friday!
And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” Some of those who stood there, when they heard that, said, “This Man is calling for Elijah!” Immediately one of them ran and took a sponge, filledContinue reading “Good Friday!”
Devotions for Lent–Lament
Let those who plant with tears reap the harvest with joyful shouts. Let those who go out, crying and carrying their seed, come home with joyful shouts, carrying bales of grain! (Psa 126:5-6 CEB) “Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.” Dr. Martin L. King “Injustice anywhere isContinue reading “Devotions for Lent–Lament”
