Life Turned Inside Out

We all know that life can turn upside down and inside out overnight. We all have had unexpected losses and turns in the road of our lives that we didn’t see coming. As believers, how should we handle these stressful times? It’s easy to lose our way as we navigate these losses. Over the past […]

Jehovah Rohi

Have you ever wondered why you need a shepherd? Of course not. We are not sheep! But we do need a shepherd. We need to be led as Christians by the Great Shepherd because He will lead us to the place of promise. He will lead us to the place of safety and care. Jesus […]

The Demand of the Urgent

Lately I have been thinking about how everyone (including myself) seems to be in a hurry. And when I ask people how they are doing, their answer is often “I’m busy.” The other day, as I was driving over the Ravenel Bridge, I watched a car weaving in and out of traffic, only to end […]

Adonai Our Master

This week in our Drawing Near classes, we will be looking at the name Adonai. There are so many names for God, similar to a diamond with many facets, and all together creating a magnificent stone. The name Adonai give us a picture of God’s sovereignty as the One who is perfect in every way […]

My last few blogs have been about the New Year and this one is the same! I have decided in the New Year to beware of my perspective– with people, decisions, understanding circumstances, etc. It is all too easy to have a false perspective and it seems to happen to me way too often. As […]

Cargo in the New Year

Happy and blessed New Year! Today I want to challenge you not to bring your baggage into the New Year. It is easy to check off last year and head full on into the New Year carrying a backpack filled with things that were in the old season; good things but perhaps not the best […]

As a Man Thinks So He Is

I have been reflecting on the powerful Scripture below: As a man thinks so is he…. We must always remember to read Scripture in context and the prior verses describe a miser who offers bread which is a common act of hospitality but their heart is not in it. They check it off of their […]

A Walk in the Park

I have a word for all of you who are following my blog. Life is not a walk in the park. It is filled with ups and downs and turnarounds and of course there is the good, the bad, and the ugly. Life in short is not the Garden of Eden. But wait…. the Garden […]
