What do we do when things get complicated? Well…here’s some of the things I find myself doing… First of all I get a sick feeling in the pit of my tummy Second I began rehearsing all the “what ifs” Third my mind grasps the most horrendous “what ifs” and runs wild like a cheetah on…

Let’s Get The Party Started!
Would it be too premature if I said, “I’m enjoying Heaven on this Earth?” Well, lets take a look-see… So, first of all, my description of Heaven is anywhere I can commune with Jesus. Yes, I know that one day this body will die, and my spirit will ascend into Heaven, and I realize Heaven…
Today…Never Again
“Exhort one another daily, while it is called “Today…” (Hebrews 3:13) This morning my daily devotions took me to chapter 3 of Hebrews. In verse 7 the Holy Spirit admonishes me to “listen to his voice.” Not only am I compelled to listen but I am urged to do it now…right away…in this very moment. Listen…
Thin the Clutter
The gospel of Matthew opens with the ancestral lineage of Jesus. Most of us just skim over these verses because, lets face it, its pretty boring, but often, there are surprises hidden within the mundane, and they remain unseen unless we are willing the thin the clutter, and look beneath the surface. You may be…
Playing With Homos

Give Yourself Away
So often our thoughts are consumed with getting what we want or need, and this is not necessarily a bad thing…after all, it is self-preservation that has kept our species alive and kicking to this very day. Self preservation is a God-given intrinsic, instinct, but, let’s face it friends, a lot has changed since the…
Sitting Upon My Sleeve
Last week, Corinne, my wife, and I were walking on the beach. There was little chatter, both introverts, we are more than comfortable in our silence. The day was gorgeous. The sun was bright, the sky was blue, and speckled with creamy puffs of whip-cream, creatively changing shapes above our heads. The water’s ebb and…
Dawn of Night
I captured this sunset photo 6 months ago while visiting my sister at Oak Island, NC. Maybe I’m cheating a bit, as the photo challenge calls for a depiction of something “awakening.” Then I thought…well…night has a beginning, just as day! So, I like to call this one, “Dawn of Night.” *** Photo Challenge: Awakening…
