Rev. Brent L. White | “When our feelings betray us”: meditation on Genesis 32:9, 12

August 14, 2019 By brentwhite Leave a Comment

Rev. Brent L. White | “The power is in Jesus’ word, not my faith in that word”: meditation on Luke 5:4-5

August 12, 2019 By brentwhite Leave a Comment

Luke 5:4-5: And when he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.” And Simon answered, “Master, we toiled all night and took nothing! But at your word I will let down the nets.” Everything in Peter’s experience, including fruitless hours of fishing […]

Rev. Brent L. White | “For as many days as you have afflicted us”: meditation on Psalm 90:15

August 9, 2019 By brentwhite Leave a Comment

Psalm 90:15: Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, and for as many years as we have seen evil. Pastor Tim Keller, in his sermon on Psalm 88, perhaps the bleakest chapter in scripture, said that even that psalm “whispers God’s grace” to us. Otherwise, apart from grace, why would God—in his […]

Rev. Brent L. White | “Is God enough for me?”: meditation on Psalm 78:20

July 13, 2019 By brentwhite Leave a Comment

Psalm 78:20: “He struck the rock so that water gushed out and streams overflowed. Can he also give bread or provide meat for his people?” Of course God could have given Israel bread and meat in the wilderness, but he chose not to. Israel’s test was to find satisfaction in God alone—not “God plus bread” or “God plus meat.” I’m convinced that God’s […]

Rev. Brent L. White | “The blessing we need versus the blessing we want”: meditation on Genesis 27:41

July 6, 2019 By brentwhite Leave a Comment

Genesis 27:41: Now Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing with which his father had blessed him, and Esau said to himself, “The days of mourning for my father are approaching; then I will kill my brother Jacob.” I can relate to Esau’s anger, if not his murderous rage. I am someone for whom the […]

Rev. Brent L. White | “What does God want to make possible”: meditation on Matthew 14:28-30

June 24, 2019 By brentwhite Leave a Comment

Matthew 14:28-30: And Peter answered him, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water.” He said, “Come.” So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, “Lord, […]

Genesis 25:23: And the Lord said to her, “Two nations are in your womb, and two peoples from within you shall be divided; the one shall be stronger than the other, the older shall serve the younger.” The story arc that begins with this verse and continues through chapter 33 describes many unlikely ways in which God […]

June 17, 2019 By brentwhite Leave a Comment

Genesis 25:22: “The children struggled together within her, and she said, ‘If it is thus, why is this happening to me?’ So she went to inquire of the Lord.” “Why is this happening to me?” Like the rest of us, Rebekah believes that answering God’s call and fulfilling his plan for her life is supposed […]
