So, I had the song “Somewhere Out There” going through my mind for a couple of days, and it was in my mind again when I sat down to write. Some secular songs have a biblical theme to them and can be used both as a Christian or as a secular song, at least in … Continue reading Is it True Love?

Do Not Throw Away Your Confidence
We read in the earlier part of Hebrews 10 about what Jesus Christ did for us in giving his life up for us on that cross for our salvation from sin. And then we are encouraged to draw near to our Lord with a TRUE heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled … Continue reading Do Not Throw Away Your Confidence
Walk Not in the Counsel of the Ungodly
Years ago, when I used to watch TV and movies regularly (gave those up in 2008), I watched a movie called “While You Were Sleeping” (1995). The story line is this: A woman who worked as a ticket seller at the “L” in Chicago had a secret crush on one of the commuters. He fell … Continue reading Walk Not in the Counsel of the Ungodly
Bringing His Recompense with Him
Evildoers and the Righteous Revelation 22:10-11 ESV “And he said to me, ‘Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is near.

So Be Zealous and Repent
I Know Your Works Revelation 3:14-16 ESV “And to the angel of the church in Laodicea write: ‘The words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of God's creation. “‘I know your works: you are neither cold nor hot.

It is inspired by Scripture, but it takes many liberties with the Scriptures and with the biblical characters, too, particularly with the character of Jesus, the … Continue reading The Chosen
Suffering Produces Endurance
Romans 5:1-2 ESV “Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Through him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God.” We are made righteous in God’s sight by … Continue reading Suffering Produces Endurance

Is Jesus Christ in You?
Taking the Test 2 Corinthians 13:5 ESV “Examine yourselves, to see whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Or do you not realize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you? — unless indeed you fail to meet the test!” When we take an examination (a test) in school, it is to test … Continue reading Is Jesus Christ in You?
Remembering and Forgetting
Why do we need reminders? Because we have a tendency to forget some things. That is why we have calendars which remind us of appointments and planned events, and why our doctors’ offices send us reminders, too. I know that if I don’t write something down, like an event or an appointment, that I can … Continue reading Remembering and Forgetting
