Issue 1830 Cute…but October 15, 2025
What might have been cute initially has become a plague or pestilence.
Daily devotionals from Scripture to nourish your faith, deepen your prayer life, and grow in God's grace.


Daily devotionals, short stories and Bible studies are designed to encourage you and strengthen you in your walk with Jesus. Come on in, sit a spell and be encouraged.
To learn more about us and what we believe, check out the “About”page. We believe that the Bible is not simply some dusty, old, irrelevant book. It is the living, active, wholly inspired Word of God.
I write devotionals on a daily basis. Most of us are ordinary people, living ordinary lives.
That is an excellent place to meet God. The Lord loves ordinary people … He must because He made so many of us. My devotionals are drawn from ordinary life and I hope illustrate the truths of Scripture. Scripture trumps my writing in every way, yet many people find it helpful in their faith walk.
I hope you enjoy what you find here. Please feel free to subscribe. https://mailchi.mp/f27bbeb09c22/gleanings-1

Even the most permanent-seeming of things in the created universe have an expiry date. The sun itself will eventually burn out if God hasn’t come back by then. The little blue planet, third from the sun, that we call Earth, will pass away.

What comes to mind when you think of doves and the Bible?

When we’re not honest with each other, we steal from one another. We rob others of the opportunity to minister to us. We rob ourselves of being ministered to. We rob God of the glory due to His name.

We begin to realize that we aren’t as much in control as we had imagined. In truth, there is very little that we do control.
