We often think of hope as indicating something that we would like to see happen but that has a possibility of not happening. What is the meaning of hope in the Bible? How does that relate to us in our everyday lives?

Evil can be difficult to identify. It's not often a blatant physical enemy. More often evil is hidden in our attitudes and actions. So what does evil look like? And how do we prepare for evil?...

Photo by rovenimages.com on Pexels.com I have an annoying behavior. When I call someone on the telephone, I always have a second thought after I have hung up the phone. The person that I just talked to on the phone can assuredly expect a call back from me within a minute to two. I am sorry, but blogs are no exception!...

Photo by Nubia Navarro (nubikini) on Pexels.com I almost missed it! This month celebrates one year of existence of this blog site: “Clear the Murk” (clearthemurk.com)! I started the blog a year ago on July 18, 2020. Since then, I have posted 73 times, with almost all of them being in-depth Bible studies. And I wrote every single one with quotes from other sources properly attributed....

Photo by Mikhail Nilov on Pexels.com I have been thinking about the blog I wrote about tithing on June 21, 2021. I left out an important consideration: To whom should you tithe? The matter of tithing is intensely personal. Perhaps you are giving less than 10%, but you are giving. Your faith just isn’t quite there, yet. Or you have some “things” you think you need, and you think you need that 10% to buy them....

Photo by Andrea Piacquadio on Pexels.com This subject has nothing to do with the condition of your lawn. However, it has everything to do with relationships. If you’ve ever seen the musical or the movie “Westside Story,” you are aware of how two gangs, the Jets and the Sharks, fought with each other over claiming a neighborhood of the city as their own territory....

"Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?" There was a question in a church-oriented Facebook closed group of which I am a member. It had to do with tithing and does one tithe to the church in which they serve?...

What is “tithing” all about (giving 10% of income to God)? Where was it first mentioned in the Bible? Did Jesus teach about tithing? What should tithing mean for me today?

Summary of the last blog to bring you up to date: In my last blog dated May 31 about the narrative often referred to as "The Road to Emmaus" as portrayed in Luke 24: 13-35, I discussed the disciples Cleopas and another disciple (spouse, sibling, friend - identity unknown) leaving the group of grieving, puzzled disciples in Jerusalem. In summary, Jesus had been arrested just three days before, given a sham trial and executed on the cross....

I encourage you to read my last blog dated May 18 as it contrasted the plans and expectations of people with the plans of God as they related to the life of Jesus Christ....

Does your life seem out of control at times? Do you need a plan for what is going on in your life? God likely has a plan for you.
