Read with me cover-to-cover in 2025. Start the Old & New Testaments together on January 1. About 3 chapters per day. About 15 minutes of your day. Join us as the axe of Biblical Love thaws the frozen parts (66LL) in our hearts. My focus in 2025 is counseling yourself from the Word. We average 60,000 thoughts per day. Take courage. Talk to yourself from Truth. I am more emotional and pensive and overly-sensitive than most. I need to know how to truly live.

Judg 9:2 and Luke 14:10 "Resting in the Lowest Place" (April 16)
What do we value, sitting in the place of honor, wanting to be right next to Beth Moore, John Piper, Tim Keller. What if we aren't recognized in this life. I am a nobody. It is my God Who lifts one up and places one under another. Don't sit at the place of honor, don't covet it. Luke 14:10 says: Sit in the lowest place. Can we be content there? Can we rest there?
Abimelech counted the cost for himself ~ Judg 9:2
not for the glory of God.
This son of Jerubbaal
promoted himself,
hired reckless warriors,
killed 70 brothers.
God returned the evil of Abimelech.
God takes notice of every price we pay.
Letting go of those things that count only on earth.
