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

Hello Kingdom citizens, Ever tried to join something that required prerequisites. I was part of a couple organizations that required an initiation ceremony.

(Luke 18:1-14) - Prayer - Keep at it

Good morning Saints. Luke 18:1-8 Ever get tired of praying for something...we all do. We ask ourselves, "is God even listening"?; "Will He ever answer"? The answer in today's reading is a resounding "YES". We have the promise of Luke 11:9, "So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door

Luke 17:11-37 Receiving or giving

Greetings in the name of our coming King, Jesus! Let me ask you something...be honest with yourself. Are you a giver or a receiver? Is it about what God can do for me, give me; or is it about what I can give Him. Do we come to God to give or receive? If you said both, what is it you want to get from Him? What is it you can give Him? Today's

Luke 17:1-10 - Humility gets you home

My brother-in-law was not with us, but my sister-in-law was. Northern Ontario is a series of lakes that run into each other, with small connecting channels. The water is particularly low this

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.
