Luke 22:45-71 - The darkest night

Hello fellow travelers, Life can be hard. You can be going along just fine, then all of a sudden - your whole world starts to unravel. You are misunderstood, challenged at every turn, questioned, not appreciated, and ultimately forsaken by many, if not all of your friends, even your closest friends. You find yourself alone before your accusers.

A truly special place (Luke 22:39-46)

Greetings Saints, Do you have a special place where you like to "get away from it all"; maybe a secret place where you like to go and reflect/pray? Some of us like to go for walks, sit in a park pondering life, meditating on issues, and talking to our God. It is a necessity to leave the world behind for a moment, quiet our soul and

A scene of desperation, filled with hope (Luke 22:1-38)

Hello Family of God, Drama - "an exciting, emotional, or unexpected series of events or set of circumstances." What a week of Drama we've had with the U.S. elections - unexpected, emotional, exciting to put it mildly. Actually, it would seem that since March, and the global pandemic shutdown, we have been living out a dramatic series of

Giving it all you've got (Luke 21:1-4; Mark 12:41-44)

Good morning Church, Praise the Lord! Another week of opportunity lies ahead - Opportunity to fully live for Jesus, and see what He does with what you offer Him.  In this week's reading, we are very close to the arrest and execution of Jesus. I find it very interesting that this story is placed where it is in the Gospel. I believe that Luke

The King under attack (Luke 19:45 - 20:26)

Good morning Church, Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! Hope you have a great day reflecting on how good our God is, and how much He has blessed us! We are continuing our walk through Luke.

Zechariah 9:9 Rejoice greatly, O Daughter of Zion! Shout, Daughter of Jerusalem! See, your king comes to you, righteous and having salvation, gentle and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey. 10 .... He will proclaim peace to the nations.

Have you been given something by Jesus - a special gift or talent to be used for His glory and purposes? Do you remember the day He save you? How did you respond? Did you say, "I will live for you - I will serve

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.
