This mortal life will never be ours to fully direct. I have given my best effort to influence it’s course, but there are too many other variables that impact my life which are out of my control. From the start it was obvious that this is true because I did not have any power over…
What is the justification a person would have to allow them to alter their life and their heart for a Being they’ve never seen and a Sacrifice they never witnessed? What is so convincing?? Fear, pressure, religion, guilt, appearance, reward,self righteousness love. All of these reasons? Some of them? One of them? None of them?…
I am not a random occurrence. A life that aimlessly exists, using up resources without reason. No, I have a purpose. I was created intentionally for a cause. I do not waver in my understanding of this since He has affirmed that this is true. “.. all who claim me as their God, … I…
Truth doesn’t have to hold hands with Love. It can be all by itself and stand alone since it has strength as fact. Love, though, has to be married to Truth. Love can’t lie. Once deceit or lies are introduced, then Love dies. Love is incompatible with falsehood since Love seeks the good of others…

I am not always the most spiritual person. My inner brat takes over and it drowns my appreciation for all the incredible things in my life. I wrote yesterday that I was battling the grey. Then, I put my heart and mind into seeing Him in all the beauty of my life. I was feeling…
If I had the endurance and time, I know for sure, that I could list 10,000 plus reasons for Your Goodness to make Me sing. The last few days, I forgot. Even yesterday, my world was kind of grey and my spiritual compass was off. The beginning of today was starting to get a little…
I love being able to write in this blog. I actually do it more for me than anything. I kind of doubt very many people see it anyway, so it’s become a way to release my feelings on “paper”. For a while, it has served to free my heart when it is held down by…
How else would LOVE be? Is it possible to love insincerely? I couldn’t. For me to love is to give your heart honestly, completely, wholly, sacrificially and with all the risk that comes with that. But, that doesn’t mean I have done that quickly, easily, or often in my life. I reserved love for a…
