There have been times lately that my heart has been so overcome with pain that I could not speak. (Psalm 18) The pangs of death surrounded me, and the floods of ungodliness made me afraid. The sorrows of Sheol surrounded me; the snares of death confronted me. I could not utter even a single syllable. It… Continue reading There is Power in the Name
The Gift of Community
If one can put 1,000 to flight, then 2 can put 10,000 (Deut. 32:30)… New Years found me surrounded by love and friendship which really is the best way to be found. The evening before I stayed up ’til the wee hours of the morning talking to one of my closest friends. I have known… Continue reading The Gift of Community
End of the Year Review/Reflection: 2013
Funny I normally do this sort of thing via email, send it to my closest friends and call it a day. But now that I have this blog, to pour out my nearest and dearest, I figured this is as good a platform as any. So here goes my annual reflection for 2013… The year… Continue reading End of the Year Review/Reflection: 2013
The Purpose Driven Life
I made a confession to someone other than myself yesterday about some things that were heavy on my heart. I confessed that I was struggling with my purpose. I know enough to know that one’s sense of purpose is related to one’s sense of value. And one’s sense of value is usually defined by those… Continue reading The Purpose Driven Life
Home for the Holidays
I tend to dread the holidays. Every year I try to brace myself and come up with some type of game plan that will make them more bearable. Last year I was able to escape and visit friends in the sunshine state. This year there was so much going on leading up to them that… Continue reading Home for the Holidays
BE BRAVE.
As I mentioned in my previous post I am currently immersed in the “Divergent” series. While there are many components of the story line that have lured me in, one of the most appealing is the Dauntless faction. The Divergent story takes place in a city that is divided up by factions. Each faction consists… Continue reading BE BRAVE.

The Art of War
I’m always drawn to these “darker” type of storylines. Either there’s a war happening, a murder to be solved, or some sort of conflict between two opposing forces which can only be resolved in the termination of one of those forces. If the story includes a female heroine of some sort who appears non threatening but proves she is… Continue reading The Art of War
His Law is Love
I’ve never considered myself to be a user. You know, someone who depletes others’ time, energy, service, etc. for the sake of meeting their own needs. For the sake of getting what they want…only with no intention of giving back. I’ve always tried to give back. Even if it was in a different way than… Continue reading His Law is Love
The Unlikely Guest
I walk into my kitchen with the intent of heating up some water and mixing it with a package of chocolate powder to get warm and satisfy my sweet craving. But I stop short quickly when I see that he is there. He is there and she is there, but it is him that surprises me because he… Continue reading The Unlikely Guest
