Peace seems like an elusive object these days. It should not be for those that follow Jesus. He promised us peace…not the kind of peace the world would give us. The peace that Jesus gives is not really able to be explained in human terms. It slips from our grasp from time to time because … Continue reading Keep the Focus Where it Needs to Be

Getting a Glimpse of Family
Do you have a home Church that you are part of? Our eternal home is not this world, so having a church community that we can call home here is so important. Being part of a Bible believing church that is filled with those that love and serve Christ is such an important aspect of … Continue reading Getting a Glimpse of Family →
Look at How You Can Lessen the Load
Quite a few years ago, I was at a church where we were going through a time of transition. There was nothing wrong in the church. It was a time when people were coming in and out and you couldn’t tell if they really cared. They would come to church Sunday morning and then that … Continue reading Look at How You Can Lessen the Load →
Service as We Look Toward the Twilight Years
I can see that getting older slows me down in different ways. I will hear something that sounds like a really good idea and I write down a phrase or a sentence that I want to write about later. Then I get distracted with something else and forget to write down the thoughts that I had … Continue reading Service as We Look Toward the Twilight Years →
Help Me See Understanding in the Wisdom
I had a friend that went through a messy situation for a little bit because of an incident that happened in a moment in time. There were words said on both sides that probably shouldn’t have been said. There were hurt feelings, maybe on both sides, but undeniably on one side more than the other. … Continue reading Help Me See Understanding in the Wisdom →
Someone Is Always Watching
I pulled the milk out of the refrigerator today. I gave it a hard shake. Every single time that I do this—and I do this most every time I get the milk out of the refrigerator—a moment in time floods my memory bank that brings a smile. It is interesting how an essentially unremarkable incident … Continue reading Someone Is Always Watching →
Looks Like We Are Back to Fruit Again
I am kind of diving right into this blog head long. It is a topic that has been on my heart for a long time, and one of the reasons I began this blog. It is aimed straight at myself. I may lose a few followers because of this one. That is OK. The Most … Continue reading Looks Like We Are Back to Fruit Again →
What Does Your Fruit Look Like?
I was checking in with a friend today about how I could pray for them in the coming year. They said something that I didn’t get all the way the first time. It was the key to their message for me. Then as I looked at it again, I got it. They said, "I have … Continue reading What Does Your Fruit Look Like? →
The Glimmer and Glow of True Treasure
We all have different opinions on what treasure is. Some treasure money. Some treasure their family or relationships. Some treasure experiences in their lives and time spent with friends. While others treasure possessions. I think we all have a few possessions that we treasure. I have mentioned before in previous posts that some of my … Continue reading The Glimmer and Glow of True Treasure →
See the Silence
I posted a blog a few years ago about trying to find some quiet time between a college campus and a hotel. There was not a solitary place to be found in either location on that particular day. There was definitely no silence to be seen. Now, as we are knee deep in a time … Continue reading See the Silence →
