Remember that time you asked for…

It is a good time of remembrance to take a look at life. What has worked out, what hasn't. Has it really been all for the good, as God promises us? Sometimes the things we want most seem so out of sight, so impossible. But surely there are some things we've prayed for that have … Continue reading Remember that time you asked for… →

Exercising begins late, but hey, at least it’s still January!

I didn't resolve to lose weight on New Years Eve. I had just come out of a valley, so to speak, and I just wasn't feeling it. But you know when you just get over a sickness and there's that lull where you don't feel like doing anything and low energy? That was me for … Continue reading Exercising begins late, but hey, at least it’s still January! →

God’s Temple. Are you taking care of it?

I was reading in 1 Corinthians today about our bodies as the temple of God and I had to genuinely evaluate myself on how I am doing with that. There's more to taking care of God's temple than simply eating healthy and working out. There's skin care, nail care, hair care, foot care, oral health … Continue reading God’s Temple.

Grateful for Good Friends

It is interesting how there are periods of time when we seem to be overbooked by so many social dates it makes our heads spin, and then there are those long periods of time of silence with no calls/texts and it's just you and God. I feel like in those moments, your inner man is … Continue reading Grateful for Good Friends →

Peer Group Support on a Particularly Bad Day

What are some of the things you look for in a peer support group? Is it community? Tips for struggles? Someone to listen?

Unstoppable

As I reflected on Easter Sunday this morning there was a character quality of God's that brought me to tears. All of hell tried to rid themselves of Jesus and on a Friday about 2000 years ago, they celebrated His death while His disciples mourned in utter grief. We now call it Good Friday because … Continue reading Unstoppable →

“Jesus and I were tight once, but…”

Do you ever feel like you wish you could go back to those first days when Jesus first came into your life? When you were filled with the Holy Spirit and complete joy and peace. When everything flowed and you couldn't get enough of reading the Bible and talking to God. Things happen. Life happens. … Continue reading “Jesus and I were tight once, but…” →

Come back to your first love

When you made a commitment to follow Jesus, you didn't anticipate the road he had for you. It was too hard for you and you walked away. It got worse but you felt there was no way back. Maybe God was mad at you, you thought, or maybe it's too difficult for Him to forgive … Continue reading Come back to your first love →

What is Christmas about anyway and why are people talking about the Rapture.

Over 2000 years ago a baby boy was born. His name: Jesus. Son of God and Man, he came to die on a cross, leaving glory and being born a helpless baby in a Manger. A host of angels appeared, to shepherds, in the sky proclaiming peace on earth and goodwill to men "For on this … Continue reading What is Christmas about anyway and why are people talking about the Rapture. →
