WELCOME to my blog!
As we set out on this adventure, I have two thoughts for you:
First, I hope this page will become a regular place of encouragement for you. I’m looking forward to sharing with you and hearing from you as we tour the Bible together! And second, if you miss some days – don’t sweat it. If you can catch up – great; and if you can’t – just start fresh and go from there!

Genesis 20-22; Matthew 6:19-34

Duke basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski (Coach “K” – for obvious reasons) – begins each season sitting down with each of his players.
He tells them, “I want you to know that I’m going to give everything I have – 100% of myself – to this team and to you – to help you become the best basketball player you can be. And now I have a question for you:”

“What are you prepared to give me?”

God takes Abraham (and us) to the same place in this Scripture.
In Genesis 20, God says “I’m with you – even when you mess up.”
In the next chapter, He says “I keep my promises – no matter what.”
Then – in chapter 22 – God says –

“NOW – What are you prepared to give me?”
Jesus addresses the same issue in our Matthew Scripture with this challenge:

“Don’t worry about your life – food, clothes, the future – Seek My Kingdom first – and I’ll provide what you need.”

No Question – commitment costs. But – isn’t it GREAT to know we have a God who is”100% Committed to us?”

See you tomorrow!
