When, blessings like a river, swarm. “The Lord is my shepherd.” And thus begins Psalm 23. King David is the author of Psalm 23; however, as much as we Christians would like to believe, David was not the first to pen the idea of God as shepherd. History tells us, this metaphor, of comparing god to shepherd, was common…

Never Hesitate To Prove Your Love
Some two thousand years ago Jesus asked Peter, “Do you love me?” Not once, but three times Jesus asked this of Peter, and three times Peter replied, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.” One may question, why did Jesus ask this three times? Why wasn’t one “yes” enough for Jesus? Was Jesus so insecure that he…

This Weeks Photo Challenge: Shadow
Hello Friends! Below are my entries into this weeks Photo Challenge: Capture a shadow.

More Than a Conqueror
For the past week I’ve lived a defeated life. I’ve lived as though my fears had come to fruition, and those things I dreaded the most, had arrived and taken their abode in my life.

We are uniquely created for reckless abandonment to our Creator. We crave Him, and long for His sound and scent. We yearn to share His story: For God so loved the world. And no one else can tell the story quite like you. You are a gift to the world. (Daily Prompt: Scent)
The Day I Floated
Today’s word, float, reminded me of when I truly put my trust in Jesus. I was sitting in a revival service, and the evangelist was teaching from the text of, II Kings 6:5-7. I listened as scripture was read and this is what I heard that night: But it happened that as one was cutting down…
Confident and Full of Hope
Good day, dear friends! Here we are at close of another year. We’ve run, walked, and sometimes crawled these past 365 days. Now we find ourselves tying the bow, on the box we call 2016, but before we put the box upon the shelf, may we take a moment to ask the question: What has…
