Even them
Naturally, I am a very loving person. However, it can be difficult when the person hasn’t been very loving or kind to me. I can remember at one point in my life encountering an individual I regretted meeting. Quickly following our demise, I hated them. It’s so shocking for me to use that word, because…

Positive Outlook
Last week in the middle of watching a program, my TV went out. No warning signs or indication of malfunction, just a black screen appeared. At first, I thought it was a glitch, as my internet connection has been rather poor lately. Although that did prove to be true, it wasn’t the cause of its…

Reach down
“God reached down from on high and took hold of me; he drew me out of deep waters.” Psalms 18:16 NLT I know what it feels like to be low; so low, even the ground looks high. I’ve had many days of trials, tribulations, and bouts of feeling lonely, that the only two things I…

Prosperity in the wasteland
You’ve been working hard, but everyone and everything has been working hard against you. No matter your efforts and obedience to God, you don’t see the fruits of your labor.

Worrying over details
Parties, weddings, finances, and home renovations, are some of the biggest things people obsess about. Around the clock, they work tirelessly making sure that everything is perfect, overexerting themselves while stressing and worry over the details. I’m running out of time, I don’t have enough money, I don’t see how I’ll get everything done, are…

The importance of dreams
Dreams are filled with rays of sunshine, because they give you hope of what’s to come. Never stop believing in them, even when you can’t see them. ~La’Rue Keep dreaming, because no one has the right to rain on them. ~Dr. Marting Luther King, Jr. image source: quotefancy.com

Until it happens (have fun)
Until you meet or marry the person of your prayers, have fun in your singleness. Until you move to that big-time city you’ve been longing to get to have fun being a small-town boy or girl. Until you land the job of your dreams, have fun at the one you’re at. It makes no sense…

End of cycle
As I’m doing laundry right now, and listening to the clothes dancing about in the washer, I received a quick word from the Lord. All the trials and tribulations you have endured are about to come to the end of its cycle. For the past two years, my life has seemed to be in a…
