The Cadillac Kid

Devotion on Relationship with God, Christian Living, Personal Spirituality, Luke 6:41-42. 1 page.

“Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me take out the speck that is in your eye,’ when you yourself do not see the log that is in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the speck that is in your brother's eye” (Luke 6:41-42).

Most of us need to have the Cadillacs of life removed from our eyes because they obscure that on which we should be focusing. It is easy to want all the fancy cars, gadgets, games, and distractions that advertisers insist we need to be cool, fit in, or just be up-to-date with everyone else.

Tears of Sorrow

Devotion on Christian Living, Witness, Comfort and Hope, Jeremiah 9:1-2. 2 pages.

Oh that my head were waters, and my eyes a fountain of tears, that I might weep day and night for the slain of the daughter of my people! Oh that I had in the desert a travelers' lodging place, that I might leave my people and go away from them! For they are all adulterers, a company of treacherous men (Jeremiah 9:1-2).

Jeremiah, weeping over the condition of Israel, wanted to find a place in the desert and hide from all the sin and evil that had overtaken the world and the people of God. I often feel the same way about the world we inhabit today.

Tears of Joy

Devotion on Easter, Joyful Tears, Comfort and Hope, 1 Samuel 1:18. 2 pages.

her face was no longer sad (1 Samuel 1:18).

Tears are a natural, important function of our perfectly created body. Scripture tells us many instances of weeping by the people of God. Sometimes they were tears of sorrow. Sometimes they were tears of joy.

Taking Time to Contem’Plate

Devotion on Comfort and Hope, Psalm 106:1. 3 pages.

Oh give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever! (Psalm 106:1).

As we contemplate the miraculous healing of the Ten Lepers, just think! Leprosy was an awful skin disease that was unsightly, painful, and incurable. Its victims were ostracized from their families and the rest of society. The disease was debilitating! Embarrassing! Downright depressing! Thus, their plates were piled high with misery! As Jesus cleansed those ten lepers, He converted their sense of hopelessness into a hope-filled joy! As those lepers realized that they were healed, by all rights, all ten should have turned back immediately, acknowledging God’s almighty Son as the source of their healing. But only one out of the ten men took the time to contemplate how his life had been changed for the better by Jesus and returned to give God thanks.

Something is Missing

Devotion on God's Goodness, Dealing with Down Days, Genesis 28:20-22a. 2 pages.

Then Jacob made a vow, saying, “If God will be with me and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat and clothing to wear, so that I come again to my father’s house in peace, then the LORD shall be my God, and this stone, which I have set up for a pillar, shall be God’s house” (Genesis 28:20–22a).

Something is missing. Have you ever felt that way? You walk into a room and something is different. Something is wrong. Something is missing. Maybe you notice it right away or maybe it takes a while for you to finally figure it out. How does it feel when you are not sure what is missing? How does it feel when you figure it out? What if you can’t change the fact that something is missing?

Simeon’s Song

Devotion on Epiphany, Joy in the Journey, Luke 2:28-35. 1 page.

[Simeon] blessed God and said, “Lord, now you are letting your servant depart in peace, according to your word; for my eyes have seen your salvation that you have prepared in the presence of all peoples, a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and for glory to your people Israel” (Luke 2:28b-32).

Does your heart melt when you see a tiny baby? Infants look so precious and vulnerable. Can you imagine the overflowing joy in Simeon’s heart when he first saw the baby Jesus, instantly knowing this little being was also the promised Messiah, God’s precious Son?
