Chasing Sunsets – Pastor Clay’s Devotions 2019
I have found that the answers to my questions, and tools to face life’s struggles are no farther away than my Bible.
I like to ride my motorcycle around country roads in Platte County in the evening, I call it “chasing sunsets”. On a long ride alone, I am reminded that at the end of the day, it is just me and God. There are lots of things that are important in this life, but the most important is my relationship with God. How does the long ride remind me of that? Simply there is nothing else going on and there are all kinds of reminders of Him all around me.
It is not His intention for us to get stirred up about a whole lot of impossible things.
Instead, we need to give them to Him, because for God, nothing is impossible. Get still, sit still, enjoy God’s quiet, it’s pretty nice. Well, the bike is not still, and it’s not real quiet, but I am not moving very fast, and it was just what I need.

Quick to Hear, Slow to Speak
Let God Make the Schedule
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” declares the Lord.
We Are All a Work in Progress
For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.
Rejoice With Those Who Rejoice
Rejoice in the Lord Always!
Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice!
What the Future Holds
And I heard a loud voice from the throne, saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is among men, and He will dwell among them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself will be among them, and He will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there will no longer be any death; there will no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things have passed away.”
Have a Peaceful Day
The plans of the heart belong to man,
But the answer of the tongue is from the Lord.
Working Through Pain
Train up a child in the way he should go, Even when he is old he will not depart from it.
My Grace is Sufficient for You
And He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.
Ask and You Will Receive
“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.”
God Has a Purpose
So teach us to number our days,
That we may present to You a heart of wisdom.
