It's been a bit since I posted. I have been processing a lot of things that have happened in my life.  And I continue to do so :) I don't give up. It's time I stopped letting things keep me down, hold me back, keep me in a place where I

Recently the Verse of the Day was: Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the LORD’s purpose that prevails.It struck a cord with me when I read it. I found myself asking myself a question. Do I care more about this person? or

Sometimes doing the right thing is not the righteous thingNow I know some people will shriek and spit venom at that statement. So right out of the gate I will bring up Joshua 2 where it talks about Rahab lying. Nuff said. Sometimes doing the right thing is not the

So I was driving into the office this morning and praying. Asking the Lord for direction. I even got a little snarky with him in my prayer time for said direction. It was a good chat and I didn't feel any kind of response, answer or revelation. I continued into

Pastor Joakim Lundqvist was guest speaking at church recently and he had 4 talking points in his message titled "When Forgiveness Seems Impossible". The Perspective That Releases ForgivenessThe Pride That Kills ForgivenessThe Peace Found in ForgivenessThe Power Unleashed Through ForgivenessI thought about this post and really there isn't much to

Watched the movie "John Wick 3" last night and there was an interesting dialogue point. "The real question is, who do you wish to die as? The Baba Yaga? The last thing many men ever see? Or as a man who loved and was loved by his wife? Who do

So I was hanging with the big Lord the other day having a chat and He turned the time into a mirror for me to see myself. Rather than hearing me talking about this or that He turned it around so I could see myself. What I saw in the

The concept of giving up can mean a great many things to a great many people. For you not giving up might look like... Not stopping your exercise regimen before you hit your goalNot walking away from your education plans againNot giving up hope that your prodigal child will returnNot

I thought about this for a long time and there is no deep long post to go with this title. The wisest thing I can say is: Really. What's so bad about being wrong after all?

Life is such a complicated mess. Filled with good and bad, right and wrong. Good choices and bad choices. Joy and hurt. Love, desire, dysfunction, loss, reconciliation, hope, and above all else... oxford commas! Sorry had to toss in that last one :) Commas save lives. Remember that.Annnnnyyyyways Pain is

Coming out of the message my pastor gave recently that was titled "You're Not as Right as You Think" I had some realizations to some of his profound statements. One of his statements was this: Take a chance loving people, even at the risk of yourself Now of course this

Anyone noticed the hate coming out of the news media these days? Seems news casters are more of a cult than journalists now. They toss out backhanded judgment and hatred using flowery language and buzz words. Meanwhile they hate anyone different than them. Kinda like all those religious zealots and

Have you ever considered that you don't have a healthy definition of confidence in your head? That's what happened to me today. I realized that I had defined much of healthy confidence as toxic. Which is not a way to live. Not a way to prosper. Not a way to

Something my pastor said in a message: Jesus was the most right person in history, but the least judgmental It took me a moment to unpack that honestly. It's a simple statement. But yet... it's really really profound when you stop and think about it compared to the news media

My pastor said this at church Proud people don't love well It hit me pretty profoundly because I can relate to many times I was too proud to love others, hell I couldn't love myself because of my pride. I was too proud to let go of my toxic marriage.

Sometimes there is just nothing to say.

DefinitionSticking to an opinion, purpose, or course of action in spite of reason, arguments, or persuasion Ran into this word recently. It pretty much sums up me and/or my life. I stick to my opinions pretty solidly regardless of what other people say. Unfortunately it's cost me deeply. When

In this current season I am in The Lord has grounded me, leveled me, taught me, stretched me. And one of the ways He has done that is by helping me admit the truth to myself and to Him. You see we all have aspects of denial within us. We

Has God called you to do something? Has God called you to be someone? As a person who spent 30 years pretending to be someone I wasn't... this is a particularly personal topic. You see I was many things when I was younger. Outgoing, rebellious, passionate, inspired, creative... And then

Sometimes you are just waiting on God. There isn't much to say. There isn't much to do. You're just waiting. It's OK to be just waiting. It really is. God's timing, God's choices are always the best. They are in fact perfect. Sometimes we have a season of waiting. Waiting

Are you a passionate person? If not were you one in the past? If so, what happened to that fiery passion? I have started to realize the shift in my life from childhood to adulthood. I was born a passionate feisty little guy. But something happened over time. That fire

Alternate Title: Just Because You Shouldn't, Doesn't Mean It's Sin As a person recovering from dysfunction and divorce I have spent many years trying to understand marriage from God's perspective. If you look at the Word it can be very easy to build a case for a very rigid legalistic

Have you ever taken the time to make a list of the people who helped you in your life? Is it a long list? Is it a short list? Who is on that list? For me. It's both. There have been hundreds of people who have helped me in my

Deep troubling question perhaps. Is God just a get out of jail hail mary? or Is he your friend walking beside you every day of life? Not much to say after that...
