There are exciting days ahead, things I’m anticipating, opportunities on the horizon. These last few years have felt a bit of a blur. Lots of work and long hours, but with some of the best people! With all the time and work being done, it’s been important to schedule in some fun too! But I […]

Our Best Days Are Ahead
Our best days are ahead and incredible things are coming! I don’t know about you, but it seems as if life is in a bit of an uproar right now. I barely look at the news and all I see is conflict, unrest, and division. Praise God for the Bible and His direction and peace! […]
We are in a War
We are in a war: good vs evil, right vs wrong, moral vs immoral. I am going to present a conversation I have been having a lot lately in regards to this: The world is getting so evil, the Lord will surely be coming back any day, right? No man knows, not even the Son. […]
You Never Know What Is Preparing You
You never know what is preparing you. Seriously, it is rather fascinating to consider. Do you ever look back at certain things in your past and suddenly have an epiphany of what that was preparing you for? Or even realize that if it weren’t for the experience you had had in one area, you never […]
Delight Yourself in the Lord
“Delight yourself in the LORD; And He will give you the desires of your heart.” -Psalm 37:4 Do you take time to delight yourself in the Lord? To build a closer relationship with Him and get to know Him more personally? Church and church groups are nice, but if you don’t already, learn to look […]

Sometimes being overly busy can translate to doing things half-heartedly. As I logged on to my blog today and watched it slowly sign in, it struck me that I needed to upgrade it in someway. To take things to the next level. How? I need to do some research and look into that. I also […]
Back to School
It’s that time of year: back to school! As a child, I loved anticipating the school year approaching. I remember my mom stacking up my books, getting everything ready for the first day. My parents homeschooled me throughout all my school years. A few of my older siblings went to school briefly, but then my […]
Choose the Dream
Sometimes I really don’t think well on my feet. I can be too literal and instead of figuring out the intent of the question asked, I simply hear what was said and it hangs me up. This happened to me earlier this week. I was working at the coffee shop and a random, well-meaning customer […]
Never Take Counsel of Your Fears
General Stonewall Jackson was approached by a timorous subordinate general who admitted grave doubts about a planned military sortie. “General Jackson,” he said, “I’m afraid of this. I fear we can’t quite carry it off.” Jackson replied, “General, never take counsel of your fears.” I came across this quote in a book I’ve read and […]
Examine Where You Are
I think it is important to examine where you are. To consider where you’ve come from and celebrate the progress, and then also to ponder what is ahead. Life is an ongoing journey, with ups and downs, rhythms and unexpected surprises. Personally, I don’t want to look back with regrets or gloom, but rather embrace […]
