This is one of the most challenging psalms. Its teaching is clear and straightforward. It is not difficult to understand, but it is challenging to carry out.If it is a psalm of David, it is one that he struggled to live by. We also may live up to it but poorly, but still, it is the ideal toward which we
Psalm 100 is the conclusion of a series of psalms that are particularly useful as “call to worship” readings.This psalm uses seven imperative verbs to call us to worship. We are told to make a joyful noise, serve the Lord, come into his presence, know the Lord, enter his gates, give thanks to him, and to bless him.This psalm does
One would have to work hard to miss the point in this psalm. Even the structure by which the main theme is broken into parts is made clear.The central affirmation is made three times (3, 5, 9). Each of these three statements of his holiness marks a section where a different aspect of that holiness has been examined. He is
“God moves in a mysterious way, his wonders to perform.” Most of us have sung that song by William Cowper and have pondered the way our Lord works behind the scenes to bring about his will. Most of us have experienced his behind the scenes and unexpected means of working on us. On Wednesday April 15, I had no idea

When times are hard and confusing, it’s easy for a believer to feel out of place. Most of us have jobs and social circles with barely enough influence to sway a local school board race, much less move the hearts of world leaders as bombs fall. We would love to shake cities and stand before governors like Paul, but we’re
April 19, 2026 Greetings again from P.N.G. It has been a turbulent five weeks – literally – since the last report. What made it turbulent? Keep reading! I pray that you are well and not struggling too much despite all of the current insanity in the world. You remain in my thoughts and prayers. Here is a brief recap of
I still remember the day I discovered smelling salts. I was a kid, wandering through my grandfather’s garage. He had run a junk yard for years, and it takes a certain kind of person to do that. You don’t throw much away. You hang on to things because they might be useful someday. You learn to see potential where other
