No what awaits you is just as a friend of mine once said … “emptiness, frustration and disappointment”. However, our society would have you think differently. As a society, in our pursuit to happiness we have […]

“For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace” Romans 8:6 Each and every sin begins first with a thought … To do … or Not to do … This is not new news. In fact it’s something we hear over and over again. “Do not be conformed but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” Romans 12:1-2 […]

Despite how hard I try, how much I pray, or how many hours a day I spend surrounding myself in His presence … the outcome is still the same – failure! The Lord has had me on the path of selflessness, and there discouragement is everywhere. […]

“For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place and you and your father’s house will perish. And who knows whether you have not attained royalty for such a time as this?” Ester 4:14 How many times I had robbed God of the opportunity to do His work through me? How many times had I been selfish in my decisions? […]
“But seeing the wind, became frightened, and beginning to sink, he cried out, “Lord, save me!” Immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and took hold of him” Matthew 14:30-31 “MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM! I’M SCARED! I NEED YOU!” What frightened her to the point of that specific scream … that “only heard in horror movies” scream? Was there something there I couldn’t see? While stumbling in the dark, sleep deprived, and still trying […]
Because its just too good not to share and because we all need a simple reminder that the God of the universe is on our side even when everything else seems to be against us… Check it out!
“Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on the rock.” Matthew 7:24-25 How often do we find ourselves sinking when the circumstances of […]
“And when they had crucified Him, they divided up His garments among themselves by casting lots.” Matthew 27:35 I find this part of the crucifixion amazing. They, the Roman soldiers, divided up Jesus’ garments among themselves by gambling for them.
