Faith Pages: October 2008
http://faithpages.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Saturday, October 25, 2008. Do you ever feel like the Christian journey is more about relearning what we already know than learning something knew? Jonah had the same problem. Here are a few of my favorite “new” old lessons from Jonah:. How many times do we find ourselves turning away from God’s clear direction, even though we know it will end in sadness or frustration? Yet we do it anyway-over and over. I wonder why? When Jonah obeyed the Lord and went to Ninevah, the result was positive. They turne...

Saturday, August 30, 2008. How Big is Your God? Is he big enough to send comfort when a loved one has been lost? Is he big enough to make you feel a little relief when your heart has been broken in two? Before the mountains were born or you brought forth the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God. Is your God big enough to overcome the minor or major obstacles that you will face on your walk this week? How big is your God? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). How Big is Your God?

Faith Pages: December 2008
http://faithpages.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 24, 2008. And they will call him Immanuel—which means, "God with us." Matt. 1:23. One of my favorite themes of the Christmas story is Immanuel, God with us. The plan was designed at creation, before the first sin had ever been committed. The plan was for God, in the form of Christ, to leave heaven and all its glory and live among the lowest of the low on Earth. It was to be an escape from eternal death. It was to be salvation.

Faith Pages: God in the Whisper
http://faithpages.blogspot.com/2009/03/god-in-whisper.html
Tuesday, March 17, 2009. God in the Whisper. I’m sure it’s not that way for everyone. My husband, for example, sleeps perfectly well through everything from my daughter coming into our room in the night complaining about a nightmare to a hurricane-strength gale. For me, though, there is a little piece of me that is always aware of the sound in the night—the still whispers. 8217;” (1 Kings 19:11-13 NIV). God knew exactly what Elijah needed—a personal encounter with God. There was nothing at this...

Faith Pages: Beside Still Waters
http://faithpages.blogspot.com/2008/09/beside-still-waters.html
Monday, September 15, 2008. True, but as busy as His daily ministry kept him, even Jesus knew the value of retreat and meditation. He knew the value of making a conscious and determined effort to spend time with his Father. 8220;Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed. Simon and his companions went to look for him, and when they found him, they exclaimed: "Everyone is looking for you! Not to spend time alone with G...

Tuesday, September 23, 2008. Teaching Children to Pray. Teaching children to pray is an awesome responsibility, because we know it is the basis through which they will eventually maintain a personal relationship with God. Many parents feel awkward, though, about teaching children to pray from the heart. It is really much simpler than it seems. Begin by children see you pray. Teach children that prayer is just a conversation with God. Make prayer a part of your daily routine. Be flexible about prayer time.
