Handling false accusations - Luke 11:14-28

Greetings fellow saints, Grace and peace to you all. Ever do something you thought was really great - God was with you, and it was pretty miraculous - you expect to get some positive feedback, maybe even a little praise, or thanks. Instead all you get is crazy comments, and challenges to do better (vvs. 14-16). OUCH! It hurts! It's happened to

I wanna pray like Jesus - Luke 11:1-13

Good morning Church, Praise the Lord! Ever hear someone pray and think, "I wish I could pray like that". That happens to me when I hear Africans and Latin people pray. I think it happened to the disciples when they heard Jesus pray (Luke 11:1) The disciples are so impressed, they want to pray the same way as Jesus. Jesus tells them what to say,

Love=Time

Good morning Church, Happy Victoria Day - the official start of summer! It certainly is different this year with social distancing rules. What we are seeing is some people interpret the rules differently than others. Some choose to obey the Law to the letter, while others look for loopholes, and re-interpret it to their own benefit. This takes

Corrected by Jesus (Luke 9:37-62)

Hello Church, I am very encouraged by the way people are connecting and reaching out one to another. Praise God! It is in the difficult, and challenging times that Jesus gets to shine brightest through us. In today's reading, we see that the disciples are not doing so well at living their Christian life - following Jesus. The chapter starts out

Abandon to discover

Good morning saints, Praise the Lord! It was good to see most of you yesterday in our Zoom meeting. This isolation is hopefully creating in us a longing to be with each other, face to face. I can't help but think of those who are persecuted for their faith, separated from loved ones and isolated in confinement. Let us keep praying for one

Hungry?

Hello Church, Hope you are well! Isolation is a great opportunity to spend time with Jesus, getting to know Him more.  I love today's story of the feeding of the five thousand (Luke 9:10-20) - it has so many lessons for us as followers of Jesus. Here's how God has spoken to me with this passage of scripture: 1. Never turn away

Keep it simple

Good Morning Church...Praise the Lord! Our God reigns! The empty tomb tells me so! This week's reading is Luke 9:1-11 - Eugene Peterson, who wrote The Message, entitles this section of the gospel, "keep it simple". In other words, just be who Jesus made you to be, with the power He gave you. Why do we have to complicate it? Don't take

Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

Matthew 27: 50 And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit. 51 At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook, the rocks split 52 and the tombs broke open. The bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life.53 They came out of the

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.
