What Does This Scripture Mean?

 

Biblical reflection and understanding, one passage at a time

This space is for slowing down in the Word.

Here, we take time to look carefully at Scripture — its context, meaning, and how it speaks to the heart and life of a believer today. These reflections are not meant to rush to conclusions, but to help us grow in understanding, trust, and obedience as the Holy Spirit teaches us through God’s Word.

Begin where you feel led.

Start Here

 

👉 Introduction
Why taking time to understand Scripture builds confidence, peace, and discernment in your walk with Christ.

Scripture Reflections

 

👉 John 14:1 — Let Not Your Heart Be Troubled
A closer look at Jesus’ words of comfort and trust, spoken to His disciples in a moment of fear and uncertainty.

 

👉 Acts 1:3 — The Kingdom of God
What Jesus taught after His resurrection, and what the Kingdom of God truly means for believers today.

 

👉 1 Corinthians 16:22 — Anathema / Maranatha
A reflection on Paul’s closing words, the seriousness of loving Christ, and the hope found in longing for His return.

How to Use This Page

 

You don’t need to read these in order.

 

You may find it helpful to:

  • read the Scripture first, slowly

  • ask, What is being said here?

  • consider how it reveals Christ

  • return again as understanding deepens

 

God’s Word is living and active, and it continues to speak as we grow.

A Quiet Reminder

 

Understanding Scripture is not about mastering information —
it is about being formed by truth.

The same Spirit who inspired the Word is faithful to guide those who seek wisdom with humility.

My newest teaching video is now live on YouTube.

 

It’s raw, it’s real — and it’s prayerfully meant for someone God has on His heart today.

As I shared this new teaching, I was reminded of something the Lord has shown me over time: faith grows, but it remains the same faith.

The Freedoms in Christ: How Jesus Sets the Soul Free series reflects my current season of teaching — but along the way, the Lord gently led me to include two earlier videos created before this website ever existed.

One was recorded in 2015–2016, when I was first stepping out in faith, simply obeying and learning to trust God, day by day.


The other was shared a few years ago, during a season when the Lord was healing me and freeing me from pain that tried to turn loneliness into bondage.

Looking back, I see now: they were never separate stories — they were part of the same journey of faith, growth, and freedom in Christ.

Just like the parable Jesus shared:

“Or what woman, having ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it?”
— Luke 15:8

Nothing God works through is ever lost — sometimes it’s simply waiting for the right time to be seen again.

Maybe you feel that way too: overlooked, out of season, or unsure where you belong.

 

But hear this:
You are not lost to God.
And if you seek Him, you will find Him.
