by Tim Canosa on August 12th, 2024
Then the Lord said to Moses, “I will rain down bread from heaven for you. The people are to go out each day and gather enough for that day.

Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for herEphesians 5:22This one isn’t just for husbands. Or for wives to remind their husbands. It’s for all of us as we encourage each other to live as Christ. We all know a husband, whether it’s our brother in Christ, our Dad or ourselves.

I’m hopeless at this. I feel caught up in the endless need to be stimulated. Or the need to be busy doing whatever is next.But it really is a weakness of our culture. W...  Read More

Grumbling
by Tim Canosa on August 9th, 2024
In the desert the whole community grumbled against Moses and Aaron. 3 The Israelites said to them, “If only we had died by the Lord’s hand in Egypt! There we sat around pots of meat and ate all the food we wanted, but you have brought us out into this desert to starve this entire assembly to death.”Exodus 16:2-3Fickle is the word that comes to mind. I’m not talking about Israel (well, I am), but I...  Read More

Victory Song
by Tim Canosa on August 5th, 2024
“In the greatness of your majesty you threw down those who opposed you.You unleashed your burning anger; it consumed them like stubble.8 By the blast of your nostrils the waters piled up.The surging waters stood up like a wall;the deep waters congealed in the heart of the sea.9 The enemy boasted, ‘I will pursue, I will overtake them.I will divide the spoils; I will gorge myself on them.I will draw...  Read More

Memorisation Monday
by Tim Canosa on July 28th, 2024
Jesus called the Twelve and said, “Anyone who wants to be first must be the very last, and the servant of all.”Mark 9:35There is a deep desire in me to be served. How good would it be?

The most powerful being beyond the universe. He didn’...  Read More

S.O.S.
by Tim Canosa on July 27th, 2024
As iron sharpens iron,so one person sharpens anotherProverbs 27:17We live in a time where people are more interested in blunting each other than in sharpening. That’s my general assessment. We want affirmation. Echo chambers. People to agree with us. And we only listen to them if they do.Maybe the issue is that we are no longer made of the right stuff, we have become chalk where once we were metal...  Read More
