Mom’s the word! Proverbs 31

Hello Saints, Proverbs 31, famous for its description of a godly wife, begins with the influence of a godly mother (vs. 1-9). For some 30 chapters we have been hearing advice from a father to a son. Now we hear a mother warn her son. Wisdom is for both genders, not reserved for male leaders only. Actually, a woman gets the last word on the issue

Proverbs 30:10-33 – what are we looking at?

Hello Saints, We are in interesting times! Are you looking at the signs? Are you paying attention to what is happening in the world? To me, the remainder of Proverbs 30 describes a man, anyone really, who is observing life around him, and finding parallels and correlations. He looks at the arrogant and proud, the injustices in life, the chaos

Who's fool are you? Proverbs 26

Good morning Church, I am having an interesting internal struggle writing about Proverbs 26 this morning, and I am not sure why. As I have been meditating on this section of the book, I realize that “God” is not mentioned in these 28 verses. [1]  God is absent! And that is probably just the meaning of the passage. When God is

Matsa Moments - Pastor Mike

Matsa Moments - Pastor Mike


The Hebrew word “Matsa” means to: find, meet, discover, encounter. It is used in Deuteronomy 4:29 where the Lord says, "But from there you will seek the LORD your God, and you will find Him if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul.” Throughout Scripture, there is an invitation from God to find Him; He actually rewards those who diligently seek Him (Heb. 11:6). To see God we must be looking for Him.

This blog is a journal of finding God - discovering who He is; learning more about His character and attributes, as I encounter Him in in His Word and world around me. These posts are theological reflections emerging out of a desire to understand how the Creator interacts with us, His creatures. Hopefully, through these you will see how the Ever-present Holy One also invites you to know Him more.
