Behold, Your God
The history of the Jews was full of oppression and difficulty. Since the destruction of Jerusalem and the exile in Babylon about five centuries earlier, the Jews had faced serious turmoil under many different rules and governments. It’s no wonder the Jews believed...
Suffering For Our Faith
A woman once said, “I love my suffering because it comes from God.” Can you say this? Do you love your suffering because it comes from God? I know I don’t. Suffering is hard and it hurts. It is Isolating and discouraging, but it is also something that ties all humans...

Are you ready for Christmas? What about 2020? The first Love God Greatly Bible study of 2020 is going to be an exciting journey through Scripture of learning the importance of God’s Word. We’ll study God’s Word together and simultaneously learn effective Bible study...
Faithful To The End
The beatitudes end with the promised blessing of persecution. After studying the many ways that believers are blessed by God, we might expect to end on something more positive and hopeful. However, I think it is fitting that persecution would be the likely result for...
Peace Not of This World
“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.” - John 14:27 The car door had barely closed behind me before uncontrollable tears began to stream down my face. If I...
Breaking Barriers

Seek Peace
This week we’re studying what it means to be a peacemaker. Psalm 34 gives us specific instruction to seek and pursue peace. Psalm 34 is categorized as a psalm of praise. David (the author of Psalm 34) praised God for His greatness. He remembered how God answered him...
Blessed Are the Peacemakers
I turned around to face the sink as my husband brushed by me into the garage. I wanted to discuss when we would sit down for dinner, but he was busy working on a project. His curt response cut me to the quick. “Don’t worry about me. I’ll fend for myself this week,” he...
The Lord Looks on the Heart
But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look on his appearance or the height of his stature, because I have rejected him. For the Lord sees not as man sees; man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart. 1 Samuel 16:7 Sometimes I wonder how many...

Five Prayers To Pray in Pursuit of a Pure Heart
“Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord? And who shall stand in his holy place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to what is false and does not swear deceitfully.” - Psalm 24:3-4 What specific triggers or “pressure places”...
Procrastinators and Planners
I’ve come to learn that there are two types of people in December: The person who says, “2020 plans? I don’t even know where I’m having Christmas dinner!” and the one who says, “I have had my 2020 daily planner filled in since October.” While our Love God Greatly team...
Blessed Are The Pure In Heart
He invited Jesus to dinner, not recognizing who his dinner guest really was. She was uninvited but went to the dinner anyway to worship and honor the One who had the power to save her soul. Both had been blind Simon, the Pharisee, was blind due to his pride. The woman...
The Promise of New Mercies Every Morning
She just needed a reminder… School had been tough. Too many tests mixed with middle school drama and this girl of mine was ready to tap out for the week. She entered my car with her shoulders down from either the strain of her backpack or the strain from her day…both...
The Bread of Life
When Jesus claimed to be the bread of life, it shocked His listeners. Many disciples left Him after He made this claim. In order to better understand the weight of what Jesus meant when He said, “I am the bread of life,” let’s look a little deeper at the events...
God’s Faithfulness
In 2019 Petra, our Love God Greatly Czech translator, hosted a women’s conference in her home city of Belfast, Northern Ireland. Over one-hundred women attended the one-day conference. One of those women was Karina, a new believer from Kazakhstan, now living in...
Desiring Righteousness
Do you get frustrated with your sin? Do you ever get tired of failing? Do you look at yourself and wish you were more godly or righteous? The Bible uses hunger and thirst to describe our spiritual state. We know what it feels like to be thirsty or to want something to...
Holy And Dearly Loved
We are a divided people aren’t we? If we turn on the television or log onto social media, and it doesn’t take long to see the clamoring of differing opinions. And what we see on TV or read online is not so different from what is happening in our own smaller...
Deprived of God
When she was a young teenager, Angela Perritt, founder and director of Love God Greatly, visited the Ukraine for the first time. Only years after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Angela saw the devastating effects of a country that had been deprived of God. God began...
Take My Yoke Upon You
Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me [following Me as My disciple], for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest (renewal, blessed quiet) for your souls. Mathew 11:29 The Lord has invited us into a partnership with Him. He wants to co-labor with us....
Blessed Are the Meek
Meekness is not a word we use very often. Many believe that meekness means weakness. It doesn’t. It also does not mean spinelessness or indecisiveness. It does not mean to be polite or timid or even naturally kind and soft spoken. So what is meekness? Matthew Henry...
Great Expectations
When was the last time your expectations were shattered? We all have expectations of how our lives should go. We prepare. We make sacrifices. We move forward with our plans. But even our best intentions can end with our world turned upside. Jesus realized they wanted...
