    God stands at the end of our rabbit trails when we have exhausted all human options

    You’ve probably heard the phrase, “going down a rabbit trail.” Wild rabbits don’t like to saunter down Main Street; they prefer bolting down trails leading deep into the woods. (By the way, jackrabbits are capable of speeds up to 40 mph to evade predators). To go down a “rabbit trail,” then, means ...read more

    We’ve all been in a place where the "brook" dried up and God moved us on to another place. There are many lessons to be learned beside the brook.

    Passion Of Elijah

    Contributed by J. Yeargin on Aug 23, 2003

     | 9,082 views

    PASSION involves each of us giving to God. Jesus told us that is more blessed to give than to receive. Actually, all of ourselves. All of our love.

    PASSION of ELIJAH Text: Ephesians 5:16 thru 18 We serve a great and mighty God. He has given us so much. And yet, we seem to have so little to give Him in return. I have been impressed over the years that He wants us to give Him more of ourselves while (at the same time) learn to give to one ...read more

    Why would God use Ravens to feed Elijah. They’re disgusting, unclean, anti-social and cruel birds. Why didn’t God use a simpler and more pleasing way of meeting Elijah’s needs?

    OPEN: Years ago I read the story of a man by the name of Wally who owned a farm in Connecticut. He had a remarkable talent he had with birds. Chickadees specifically. It seems that every morning these little birds would flutter down and land on his hands. And it wasn’t just for food; He’d talk ...read more
