I wrote this back on Aug 11 and posted to Facebook. I still feel it’s true and I still don’t know what I’m doing,  LOL: I can’t construct a fail safe system to protect my heart. I can try. I can make every effort to shield it and be the most vigilant gatekeeper ever, but…

If you’re here long enough, you’ll get handed all kinds of things. Some of those things were alive, valid, and relevant when you received them, but now they’re dead. Whatever they were, they no longer are. Therefore, holding onto them past their expiration date is a waste of life. Maybe your open hand held something …

  He stays with me and He refuses to leave. I can’t think of any other who would remain and be present without a gap or space. I mean, He is completely immersed in me. No one else can do that because when I am not kind, thoughtful, selfless, sacrificial, patient, gracious, loving and the…

  For the last year and half or so, I’ve written about what I know and what I’ve learned and what I’m still learning about God and about Jesus. I’ve only had a blog for that period of time, but I became a Christian a long time before that, and I guess, when I first…

Dark gets to have its days. Sometimes it overwhelms and overtakes life. It may succeed for awhile, but it won’t always dominate. If it were the ultimate victor, then I would rather go now. It will not win. Even in the deepest dark, it won’t obliterate light. When we’re navigating through the blackest moments, the…

“Thy will be done…” Matthew 6:10 I don’t think I have ever said this out loud or in my heart to Him and felt 100% resigned every time I said it.  Maybe you never do.  Maybe the beauty of saying this is, despite wanting something else, you are willing to lay it down and submit…

It is such an effective thief and I’m the one who allows it. Today, I ushered it in. I was thinking about a new skill I want to master in lettering. Something I’ve been practicing for a short while. I don’t have the muscle memory yet and it’s discouraging. So, I went over to different…
