the encounter

The Encounter

VineWords Devotions and More

Build a large boat from cypress wood and waterproof it with tar, inside and out. Then construct decks and stalls throughout its interior. ~Genesis 6:14 NLT The encounter was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Several years ago, my wife and I had planned to visit the Ark Encounter in Kentucky, but those plans fell through. Then, my school entered a five-year training program—one of which involved teacher-training conferences and tours at the Ark Encounter and the Creation Museum. Although my wife couldn’t … Continue reading →

the walk

The Walk

VineWords Devotions and More

Enoch walked with God 300 years and had other sons and daughters. Enoch walked with God; then he was no more, because God took him away. ~Genesis 5:22, 24 NIV My dogs and I try to walk every day. Since our property is fenced, the dogs can run freely. Some of them like to be out in front of me. Some cast back and forth across the field, and if not for the fence, would soon be out of sight. … Continue reading →

unintentional worship

Unintentional Worship

VineWords Devotions and More

I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonderful deeds. ~Psalms‬ ‭9:1‬ ‭NIV‬‬ One morning, a verse came to mind while I prayed and thanked God for some wonderful things I saw Him doing. At the same time, it made me wonder if I had participated in unintentional worship. Yet you are enthroned as the Holy One; you are the one Israel praises. ~Psalm 22:3 NIV God reminded me that when … Continue reading →

the praise of children

The Praise of Children

VineWords Devotions and More

Jumping in Praise Surrounded by third and fourth graders, my heart swirled in their chatter. Vacation Bible School was in full swing, and so were their bodies. Jumping up and down to the music, clapping their hands, and following the motions of the leader, they sang, “Pra-i-se Him!” Watching their faces beam with enthusiasm, I was caught up in the joy. How the Father must love to hear the praise of children. Out of the mouth of babes and nursing … Continue reading →

every day is Sunday

Every Day Is Sunday

VineWords Devotions and More

Every day is Sunday in my house. My ninety-year-old father rises to find his Sunday clothes—dress shirt, nice pants, suit jacket, feet clothed with hospital skid-proof socks tucked into his dress shoes. Dad anticipates the opportunity to go to church. I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go into the house of the Lord.” ~Psalm 122:1 NKJV Dementia has messed with Dad’s daily perceptions but has not diminished his desire to spend time in the Lord’s house. … Continue reading →

Can't Entertain God by Martin Wiles

Can’t Entertain God

VineWords Devotions and More

What makes you think I want all your sacrifices?” says the Lord. “I am sick of your burnt offerings of rams and the fat of fattened cattle. ~Isaiah 1:11 NLT I’ve discovered I can’t entertain God. I suppose the first entertaining I did—other than as a child wanting attention—came at the first church I pastored. Someone concocted the idea we should have a womanless beauty contest, so a few deacons and I dressed as women, paraded before church members, and let … Continue reading →

The Presence and the Peace of God

The Presence and the Peace of God

Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in every way. The Lord be with you all. ~2 Thessalonians 3:16 ESV I needed the presence and the peace of God. I try to spend extended time with the Lord on Sundays, reading His Word and praying. One Sunday, an overflow of prayer needs came to mind. My wife had undergone three hospitalizations the month before and was in rehab, getting healthy enough to come home. … Continue reading →

Little Flocks

Little Flocks

The Sheep I grew up in the upper Midwest, in a small community near the United States’ sheep capital. I could drive past farms and sale pens and see hundreds of sheep—large and small flocks. But my favorite time of year was spring, when little lambs with fresh fleeces danced in the fields and played beside their mothers. Their wool was always the brightest white, and their faces so sweet. They were endearing and curious. The older sheep had thick, … Continue reading →

The Power of Grace

The Power of Grace

My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weaknesses. ~2 Corinthians 12:9 NKJV We say grace before a meal. We speak of God’s grace. But do we really know the power of grace? Grace comes from the word charis and may be defined as “the divine influence upon the heart and its reflection in the life.” Grace happens within our spirits. Paul knew something about grace. He had to because he had experienced sorrows and … Continue reading →
