“But they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.” Isaiah 40:31 The Eagle is the apex predator of the sky. This means it has no equal—no natural threats that hunt it and conquer it. It eats other …
“A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.” Proverbs 17:17 Friendship is essential to this life. I wouldn’t have survived middles school without my friends. I barely survived college because of my friends. They have seen me through the toughest of times. Family is a gift from the Lord. This is true. It is the …
“Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone because he had been talking with God.” Exodus 4:29 Moses had just spent 40 days on the top of Mount Sinai conversing and communing with the Lord. This was a true “Mountain Top” experience. In fact, this Old Testament story is echoed (and surpassed) with Jesus, Peter, James, and …
“Yours, O Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, for all that is in the heavens and in the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom, O Lord, and you are exalted as head above all.” 1st Chronicles 29:11 It was a homecoming. I was headed back to the place where …
“When the Waters saw you, O God, when the waters saw you, they were afraid; indeed, the deep trembled.” Psalm 77:16 “When I was sinking down, sinking down, sinking down, When I was sinking down, O my soul! When I was sinking down beneath God’s righteous frown, Christ laid aside His crown for my soul, for my soul, Christ laid …
“There is none like God, O Jeshurun, who rides through the heavens to your help, through the skies in his majesty.” Deuteronomy 33:26 I’m a sucker for a good chase scene in a movie. Every action-adventure movie includes a chase scene. Is it even an adventure movie without such a dramatic back and forth with hairpin turns and exploding cars? …
“And your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, “This is the way, walk in it,” when you turn to the right or when you turn to the left.” Isaiah 30:21 My oldest, Ethan, graduated from High School this past weekend. What a wonderful celebration filled with pomp and circumstance, family and friends, stories, pictures, and a few tears. …
“Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you. See, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the Lord rises upon you and his glory appears over you. Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn.” Isaiah 60:1-3 In 2012, Peter Diamandis …

“You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart.” Jeremiah 29:13 It’s the first day of school for the students in my area tomorrow. August 4th seems way too early to be headed back to school. Our family did “meet the teachers” last Thursday. Even with the early date and the sorrow over summer’s …
