It is reached for, measured out, placed into the hands of the man clothed in linen, and carried at Your word alone. Nothing burns in my life that You have not first handled.

The wall of insights
What touches you in Scripture? What can we pray for? What can we thank God for?
Eliphaz asks, "Are the consolations of God too small for you, even the word that is gentle toward you?" A…Eliphaz asks, "Are the consolations of God too small for you, even the word that is gentle toward you?" A good question, from the wrong mouth. His own speeches had been anything but gentle. Be careful: you can scold someone in God's name and call it comfort. Ask whether your words actually sound like Him.
Paul's list of credentials has a line he could never scrub clean: "concerning zeal, persecuting the assembly." His sincerity was…Paul's list of credentials has a line he could never scrub clean: "concerning zeal, persecuting the assembly." His sincerity was real. His blamelessness under the law was real. And he was wounding the very One he thought he was defending. Zeal can burn hot in the wrong direction. What is yours actually serving?
Father, I keep measuring my life against someone else's, as if their path were the only good one. Remind me…Father, I keep measuring my life against someone else's, as if their path were the only good one. Remind me that what you've placed in my hands is yours, given on purpose. Help me live this season well, without envy.
The herdsmen ran and "told everything, including what happened to those who were possessed with demons." A true report, every…The herdsmen ran and "told everything, including what happened to those who were possessed with demons." A true report, every detail accurate. Yet the city heard it and asked Jesus to leave. Knowing exactly what He did is not the same as wanting Him near. What has He done in you that you can describe, but still keep at arm's length?
Thank You for being the God who splits rivers into seven streams so Your people can cross over in sandals.…Thank You for being the God who splits rivers into seven streams so Your people can cross over in sandals. The waters that block my way are no obstacle to Your hand. Thank You for making dry paths where I saw only deep water, and for bringing Your people home.
About Faith.Network
The Bible is a book full of wisdom, but sometimes hard to understand. Faith.Network was born from the desire to make that depth accessible to everyone.
We believe technology can help faith grow. By combining the power of smart software with reliable theological sources, we offer explanation, background and context for every verse. So that you do not just read, but truly grow.
Disclaimer: Faith.network uses automated language models to prepare Bible studies and reflections. All content is generated from the Bible text itself and checked daily by an independent, automated quality control: random samples from every language site are scored on faithfulness to Scripture, verbatim Bible quotation, language and clarity, and the results are published unedited. Even so, no explanation is infallible and mistakes can occur. Nothing on this platform constitutes professional advice, and no rights can be derived from its content. Always test what you read against the Bible itself, and use Faith.network as a supplement to — never a replacement for — your own Bible study, prayer and the life of a local church community.
