Habits of Jesus Day 2: Dawn Patrol
God doesn’t call us to be a light for others without giving us the wherewithal, motivation and soundness of self as a foundation for our own lives. Remembering and noticing and engaging with Him and the works He has prepared for you is always easier when you turn to the newly created dawn and His…

Habits of Jesus Day 1: The Lord’s Prayer
The disciples noticed that Jesus prayed when He was alone. They asked Him how they could make His habit their own. The Lord’s Prayer. Jesus said, pray this way: “Our Father, who is in heaven, holy be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us…

Hunger for the Harvest Day 17: Helping Others
Consider the gifts God has given you and serve someone a tall drink of God’s living water (John 4:10)! As each one has received a special gift, employ it in serving one another as good stewards of the multifaceted grace of God … whoever serves is to do so as one who is serving by…

Hunger for the Harvest Day 14: Character
If you are looking for character in the life of Jesus, you don’t have to read much of the Bible to see that! But reading a whole Gospel from beginning to end (Matthew, Mark, Luke or John) will show you the fuller picture of how He lived His life of character as a habit that…

Hunger for the Harvest Day 12: Fruit of Humility
With all humility, gentleness, and patience, show tolerance for one another. This is love. Eph 4:2 We might think there is humility in someone who bows downs, lowers their eyes, and waits for instructions, like a servant. But after reading this verse, the more biblical picture God brings to mind for me is someone who…

Hunger for the Harvest Day 9: Humility and Love
Be humble, like Christ. Therefore if there is any encouragement in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and compassion, make my joy complete by being of the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in spirit, intent on one purpose. Do nothing from selfishness or empty…

Habits of Jesus Day 19: Beyond Easter
There is sadness and pain in reviewing Jesus’ ordeal on the cross. There is joy in the empty tomb. There is confidence in His ascension to heaven. But our highest heavenly perspective comes from walking with Jesus toward the cross, understanding His resurrection from the tomb from this side of eternity, knowing He reunites with…

Habits of Jesus Day 18: Foundational Truth
Jesus said, “These words I speak to you are not incidental additions to your life, homeowner improvements to your standard of living. They are foundational words, words to build a life on. If you work these words into your life, you are like a smart builder who built his house on solid rock. Rain poured…

Habits of Jesus Day 16: Helping the Poor
The poor are in our lives. They may be poor in money, poor in spirit or poor in opportunity. They are often oppressed and taken advantage of. They live in every country around the world. Zaccheus was an oppressor. Tax collectors of that day often took more tax than was owed and that extra amount…

Habits of Jesus Day 15: Loving the Sick
Jesus healed the dead body of Lazarus and he came out of the grave alive. That was a miracle! But even more touching was how Jesus loved Lazarus as a brother and wept for him and for his sisters Mary and Martha. Martha and Mary sent word to Jesus, saying, “Lord, he whom you love…

30 DAY FAST, SEPTEMBER 1 – SEPTEMBER 30 (Join any time, see how to prepare below.)
Early morning posts every day: 30 days of fasting does not mean you do not eat for 30 days! A fast can be many things. Normally it is a plan to deny yourself some kind of food or something that is habitual. You want the lack of it to be noticed regularly by your body and your mind. And you want to experience a sort of hunger for it. It can be a good thing or a bad thing. A fast, by design, will turn your thoughts toward God when the moment comes that you say No. These posts will help you prepare and focus on how He will spiritually provide what you need, in the moment and beyond.
Evening posts every day: Personal posts from me that share my own daily experience of fasting, encourage tasting the sweetness of our Lord before sleep, and prepare us for an ever deeper renewal in the morning.
