Psalm 22: Even when you may think He is not, He IS there
I am typing this while standing in line to board a plane– yes, really, so bear with me in my brevity. I woke this morning, read the chapter and was puzzled as to which verse to highlight. I couldn’t sit still and ponder much, as, well, I’ve got this flight. And so, here I am.…

Psalm 21: Trust in Him gives us unshakeable strength
This past weekend I spent leading my daughter and some girls from her Girl Scout troop in their first camping experience. The rest of the troop (minus 2 girls) will camp for the first time in November, sand I have no doubt this first group will be fantastic leaders for the rest of the troop on…

Psalm 18: He can guide me
I’m weary. There are so many things pulling at me. Are you feeling the same way? I bet David did, too. Fortunately, I don’t have enemies attacking me or my people in the way David did. But I do feel pressed and pulled, that is for sure. I am getting ahead of myself. Here is…

Psalm 17: He hears me… and you, too
Today’s devotional just makes me smile… hope it does the same for you. He is right there for us always. Here is what I heard in Psalm 17: Scripture: Psalm 17: 6-7 I call upon you, for you will answer me, O God; incline your ear to me, hear my words. Wondrously show your steadfast love,…

Psalm 16: With Him, I will not be shaken
Good morning from Charlotte, North Carolina. I’m here as a sponsor and presenter at Digital CoLab via Wine4.Me. The last 24 hours have held a lot of excitement for me that I will be able to share with you soon. It’s been a blast to see God’s provision and today’s verse rang so very, very true.…

Psalm 15: A guide for living and gorgeous grace
I am literally on an airplane hoping to finish this post before the door closes. So I’d better just jump right in… Here’s what I heard in Psalm 15: Scripture: Psalm 15 The whole thing really grabbed me, rather than just one verse. You can read all of Psalm 15 on Bible Gateway. (Please take…

Psalm 14: Seek refuge in Him
This morning I am already facing frustration. I am trying to keep a cool head, but it’s hard. I hate that I jumped into other stuff without the chance to do my Bible reading first. Here’s what I am hearing in Psalm 14 today: Scripture: Psalm 14:6 You evildoers frustrate the plans of the poor, but the…

Psalm 13: For those who don’t feel like He’s listening
This morning’s SOAP could either be encouraging or discouraging, depending on where you are. I sure hope you see it as an encouragement. I opted to look at the chapter as a whole rather than pull just one verse. Here is what I heard from Psalm 13:

Psalm 12: DON’T fake it ’till you make it, or listen to those that do
Happy Saturday! This morning I was thinking about a presentation that I am sharing later this week when I reminded myself to stop that line of thinking for now and read my Bible passage for the day. I try to read each day’s passage before I engage in anything else, as best I can. No…

Psalm 11: Do Good Things
Last night I attended a meeting for Girl Scout leaders. Although this is my fifth year as a leader, I have not been able to attend many of those meetings through the years. Last night I was blown away by the amount of service projects our community of Girl Scout troops participates in every single…

Gotta be quick this morning! Here’s what I heard in Psalm 10 using SOAP: Scripture: Psalm 10:17 O Lord, you hear the desire of the afflicted; you will strengthen their heart; you will incline your ear Observation: You hear those who call out to you and strengthen them. Application: We should call out to Him…

Psalm 9: Giving thanks and recounting blessings
Oh, it sure feels early this morning. Last night I was up pretty late working on a few documents for my business. We are moving towards partnering with another company and I had lots of deadlines for some exciting things which I learned of yesterday and which also were yesterday. And so I buckled down…

Psalm 8: Belt out those praises, y’all
Good morning and happy Tuesday to you. It’s a short school week, which I know my kids are diggin.’ Maybe they are even thanking God for that gift… I’m not really sure. I’ll ask them on our drive to school. It’s the thanking of all those things, big and little, which I think are the right…

Psalm 7: Thank you!!
Happy Labor Day! I hope you are enjoying the day at a relaxing pace or, as a lady at the airport told me she would be doing, enjoying holiday pay. This morning I had trouble with the reading as I don’t often feel like I have enemies circling me, attacking. Because of this I felt I didn’t have that…

Psalm 6: Back off, bad guys, He’s in my corner
I love holiday weekends. It is Sunday, but we get a ‘bonus Sunday’ this weekend, which makes it even better. Last night, when my daughter went to bed, she said she wanted to get to sleep quickly so she could wake up today as she is having friend over to spend the night. Yesterday she was…
