We take so much for granted in this modern age that we live in. With the touch of a button we can be at the other side of the world, exploring deserts, mountains and forests, immersing ourselves in the culture and customs of other lands… maybe not in person, but the eye gate can still … Continue reading I Know Who I Am Through Christ; But Do Others See Who I Am I For Christ?

Visualize What Building Each Other Up Looks Like
I was talking with some ladies this past week about coming up with some ministry ideas that would benefit the community and help folks that are in need. Then later in the week I was speaking to another lady on the phone and she was telling me that she is involved in something similar to … Continue reading Visualize What Building Each Other Up Looks Like →
Examine Love and Forgiveness in Your Heart
Let’s face it. We are living in a world that would rather hold a grudge than offer love and forgiveness. How did we get here? We used to live in a kinder, gentler world. I think maybe there was a time when people had more respect for God, for others and for themselves. Respect for … Continue reading Examine Love and Forgiveness in Your Heart →
Gazing at the Ripples in the Water
This was one of the first random blog ideas I had written down in my idea notebook back in 2017, when I initially began my blog. I was thinking about the wisdom needed for decisions that we make in life and how every decision, even a small one, has an effect on yourself and/or others. I … Continue reading Gazing at the Ripples in the Water →
Recognize the Wonders of God

For the past three weeks I have been mostly off line, with just enough to research and post my blogs. I really have not missed it. I told someone that for the past three weeks I have been … Continue reading Light and Strength →
Can You See the Way In
It seems like we are always trying to get out of something. When you are in school as a child you can’t wait to get out for summer break. When you are in high school or college you can’t wait to graduate and get out on your own. I have been in vehicles before that … Continue reading Can You See the Way In →
Seeing Trials Through a Different Perspective
When I look around, I see many people that never appear to be touched by sorrow or trouble. They seem to live (to the human perspective) a charmed life. The sun is always shining for them. The light is always green. Their life looks flawless. Their heart seems to know no sorrow. Then, I think … Continue reading Seeing Trials Through a Different Perspective →
Look Around for the Joy
It has been a busy day. I love Sundays though! My time to write is shorter but my time to be blessed is longer. I am still catching up on rest and trying to get into some kind of normal schedule. With days and nights that were kind of here and there for the past … Continue reading Look Around for the Joy →
Watch the Living Water Rain Down
This week I started going through the “Lord’s Prayer — The Lord’s Requirements” reading plan from the YouVersion Bible App with my cousin. The devotion this morning, “Day 4 - Which Heaven,” caught my eye. In it they referenced Isaiah 55:10. This devotion was talking about the questions of, “Where is heaven? What is heaven? … Continue reading Watch the Living Water Rain Down →
