  • Day 2760 Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 103:7-18 – Daily Wisdom
    Dec 24 2025
    Welcome to Day 2760 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2760 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 103:7-18 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2760 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2760 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. The Title for today’s Wisdom-Trek is: The Geometry of Grace – As High as the Heavens, As Far as the East. Today, we continue our ascent up the magnificent peak of Psalm One Hundred Three. We are exploring the heart of the psalm, verses seven through eighteen, in the New Living Translation. In our previous trek, we heard King David preaching a sermon to his own soul. He commanded himself to "Bless the Lord" and not to forget His benefits. We listed those benefits: He forgives all sins, heals all diseases, redeems us from the Pit, and crowns us with love and tender mercies. It was a celebration of what God does. But today, David goes deeper. He moves from God’s acts to God’s nature. He asks the question: Why does God do these things? What is it about His character that makes Him forgive a sinner like me? In this section, David gives us the definitive theology of the heart of God. He takes us back to the mountain of Sinai to hear God’s own description of Himself. He uses the vastness of the cosmos to measure God’s love. And then, he looks at us—frail, dusty, fleeting humanity—and explains why God’s response to our weakness is not judgment, but fatherly compassion. So, let us stand in awe as we measure the dimensions of grace. The First Segment is: The Magna Carta of Mercy: God’s Self-Revelation. Psalm One Hundred Three: verses seven through eight. He revealed his character to Moses and his deeds to the people of Israel. The Lord is compassionate and merciful, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love. David begins by grounding his praise in history. He isn't guessing what God is like; he is remembering what God said. "He revealed his character to Moses and his deeds to the people of Israel." Specifically, David is quoting Exodus Thirty-four, verse six. This moment occurred right after the Golden Calf incident—Israel’s great act of spiritual adultery. Moses asked to see God’s glory, and God passed by and proclaimed His name. This declaration in verse eight—"The Lord is compassionate and merciful, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love"—is the most quoted verse in the entire Old Testament. It is the Jewish Creed of Grace. Let’s break down these four pillars of God’s heart:
    1. Compassionate (Rachum): Related to the word for "womb." It describes a mother’s visceral feeling for her helpless infant.
    2. Merciful (Chanun): Meaning gracious, generous, giving favor that is undeserved.
    3. Slow to Get Angry (Erek Apayim): Literally, "Long of Nose." In Hebrew idiom, anger was associated with a hot nose or snorting. To be "long of nose" means it takes a long time for God’s nose to get hot. He has a very long...

  • Day 2759– A Confident Life – Balancing Truth and Love – 3 John 1:1-15
    Dec 23 2025
    Welcome to Day 2759 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Day 2759– A Confident Life – Balancing Truth and Love – 3 John 1:1-15 Putnam Church Message – 11/16/2025 Sermon Series: 1, 2, & 3 John “Balancing Truth and Love" Last week, we explored the letter of 2 John and Learned how to have A Confident Life: Balancing Love and Truth. This week, we will focus on the letter of 3 John, and as we explore the fine art of “Balancing Truth and Love” from 3 John 1:1-15 in the NIV, found on page 1907 of your Pew Bibles. 1 The elder, To my dear friend Gaius, whom I love in the truth. 2 Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well. 3 It gave me great joy when some believers came and testified about your faithfulness to the truth, telling how you continue to walk in it. 4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth. 5 Dear friend, you are faithful in what you are doing for the brothers and sisters,[a] even though they are strangers to you. 6 They have told the church about your love. Please send them on their way in a manner that honors God. 7 It was for the sake of the Name that they went out, receiving no help from the pagans. 8 We ought therefore to show hospitality to such people so that we may work together for the truth. 9 I wrote to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to be first, will not welcome us. 10 So when I come, I will call attention to what he is doing, spreading malicious nonsense about us. Not satisfied with that, he even refuses to welcome other believers. He also stops those who want to do so and puts them out of the church. 11 Dear friend, do not imitate what is evil / but what is good. Anyone who does what is good is from God. Anyone who does what is evil has not seen God. 12 Demetrius is well spoken of by everyone—and even by the truth itself. We also speak well of him, and you know that our testimony is true. 13 I have much to write you, but I do not want to do so with pen and ink. 14 I hope to see you soon, and we will talk face to face. 15 Peace to you. The friends here send their greetings. Greet the friends there by name. Opening Prayer Sometimes I hear Christians talk about returning to the simplicity, innocence, and purity of the early church. Before doctrinal decline. Before moral corruption. Before power-hungry leaders started wrangling over position. Before the sun set on the golden age of the apostles. The idea seems to be that the first generation of Christians could focus their attention on preaching the gospel without constantly dealing with problems in the...

  • Day 2758 Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 103:1-6 – Daily Wisdom
    Dec 22 2025
    Welcome to Day 2758 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2758 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 103:1-6 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2758 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2758 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Wisdom-Trek: The Soul’s Anthem – Remembering the Benefits of the King. Today, we step out of the shadows and into the brilliant sunlight of one of the most beloved majestic peaks in all of Scripture. We are beginning our trek through Psalm One Hundred Three, covering the opening stanza, verses one through six, in the New Living Translation. In our previous journey through Psalm One Hundred Two, the "Prayer of the Destitute," we walked through the valley of the shadow of death. We sat in the ashes with a man whose bones burned like coals and whose heart was withered like grass. We heard the groans of the "sons of death" and saw the universe wearing out like an old garment. It was a heavy, somber meditation on human frailty and the immutability of God. But today, the scene shifts dramatically. If Psalm One Hundred Two was the cry of the exile in the dungeon, Psalm One Hundred Three is the song of the prisoner set free. The gloom has lifted. The fever has broken. The garment of mourning has been exchanged for a crown of love. This psalm, attributed to David, is pure, distilled praise. There are no petitions here. There are no complaints. There is only a soul overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of God’s grace. It is an internal dialogue where David commands his own spirit to wake up and remember. So, let us shake off the dust of the ruins and join David in this magnificent anthem of the redeemed soul. The first segment is: The Internal Command: Waking Up the Soul. Psalm One Hundred Three: verses one through two. Let all that I am praise the Lord; with my whole heart, I will praise his holy name. Let all that I am praise the Lord; may I never forget the good things he does for me. David begins not by addressing God, nor by addressing the congregation, but by addressing himself. This is a powerful spiritual discipline: Self-Exhortation. "Let all that I am praise the Lord; with my whole heart, I will praise his holy name." The phrase "Let all that I am" is the translation of the Hebrew word nephesh (soul) combined with "all my innards" or "all my inmost parts." In the Ancient Israelite worldview, the nephesh wasn't just a ghostly spirit trapped in a body; it was the whole self—the throat, the appetite, the emotions, the will, and the vitality. David is commanding every organ, every cell, and every faculty of his being to mobilize for worship. There is to be no silent partner in his body. His mind, his memory, his liver, and his lungs must all align to bless Yahweh. He focuses specifically on God’s "holy name." As we saw in Psalm Ninety-nine, the Name represents the reputation and the...
