An Idea Borrowed

Years ago on a radio program someone shared that they read a chapter in Proverbs every day. Since there are 31 chapters and the longest month has 31 days it allows you to read through Proverbs on a regular basis. I use it as the launch pad for my personal worship time and branch out from there. On this blog I will try to share some of the insights I have in the Word. I will try to organize them in the archive by reference.

Our Source

Psalm 124:8 (KJV) Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

(Proverbs 5 also read)

I’ve been having a great time this morning just thinking about all of the ramifications of worshiping a God who is the great “I AM”.  The One who is the Way, the Truth and the Life.  The One that we keep trying to put in a box, but He keeps His box cutter handy or just teleports out.  And then I came across this.

This God who was capable of making the entire universe is our help.  Stop and think about that a moment.  I remember the big fancy theological words of “imminent” and “transcendent”.  Those are fancy words.  What they mean is that God is both out there and in here.

So?  Relax and rejoice in the knowledge that even though the creator of the universe is beyond our comprehension and our touch, we are not beyond His.  He has reached out to us.  (Posted, January 5, 2026, PP)
