    In Psalm 40, the Psalmist tells us that he wants to do God's will. However, how do we know if we're doing God's will, or not?

    SPIRITUAL DISCERNMENT Having a key in your hand is useless, unless you know how to use that key.

    At a former church, the day I started my job as an associate pastor I was given a set of keys to the church by one of the Trustees, Bill.

    A sculptor can leave his work and come back to it another day, and take it up where he left off. But it is not so with the growth of the soul. The work of grace in us either waxes or wanes, flows or ebbs.
