Satisfaction; November 1, 2019
Ecclesiastes 5:10 Whoever loves money never has money enough; whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with his income. This too is meaningless. Solomon writes a good bit about wealth, which is hardly surprising since he was fabulously wealthy. In all … Continue reading

Self-image; January 27, 2018
Isaiah 45:9 “Woe to him who quarrels with his Maker, to him who is but a potsherd among the potsherds on the ground. Does the clay say to the potter, ‘What are you making?’ Does your work say, ‘He has … Continue reading
Motives; January 13, 2018
