Leave it in the dust

Sometimes you just need to let go and drop some things that are preventing your growth in Jesus. You need to leave them in the dust. Defined, it means to easily defeat, to go far ahead, and to abandon or leave behind. Sometimes people just feel the need to sling their garbage onto you. We … Continue reading Leave it in the dust →

Another Wow moment

I was listening to the Bible on my drive home Friday and when I heard this verse (John 8:14) I had to pull over for a moment. Jesus said, “for I know where I came from and where I am going.” He was answering the Pharisees who wanted more proof of who He was. But … Continue reading Another Wow moment →

Boom Box

I have a stereo system with external speakers at my office. It reminds me of a boom box from the 1990's. I have the bass set to the highest level. It has a cassette player, CD player, and a USB port. Recently I was listening to the radio and this song came on. It absolutely … Continue reading Boom Box →

Attitude

I've been reading a lot in Matthew 5, the Beatitudes. Defined they are supreme blessedness or happiness. The Beatitudes are a series of blessings pronounced by Jesus during the Sermon on the Mount. They describe the qualities and attitudes valued in the Kingdom of Heaven, emphasizing grace and spiritual fulfillment rather than material wealth or … Continue reading Attitude →

Live Palms Up

This coming Friday I will be in court as an expert witness in a case. I have done this in the past and it is never pleasant, no matter how prepared I am. It just puts you on edge. But I'll be okay.

Lately I have been amazed by people's testimonies. I cannot get enough of seeing the goodness of God showing up … Continue reading Powerful →

Lent 2026 #5 Cleaning House

During this Lent season, where I am fasting from taking offense, a fellow blogger asked me, “What are you going to replace it with?” Boy that hit me right between the eyes! So I stopped everything and asked God. After just sitting with it awhile, I felt God saying this—My love. Two simple yet incredibly … Continue reading Lent 2026 #5 Cleaning House →

Lent 2026 #4 Dumpster Diving

Full confession...I am a dumpster diver. We have a thrift shop in town that has a special dumpster that they put their discards in. I, and others, have sorted through it to find treasures. I have found some amazing vests, blazers etc. that are almost like brand new to spruce up my wardrobe. And free … Continue reading Lent 2026 #4 Dumpster Diving →

Time is relative

Who knew it was this simple? I recently had my teeth cleaned and my hygienist said she was so proud of me! After my previous cleaning 3 months ago, one morning I saw on my tube of toothpaste, “Brush 2 times a day for 2 minutes.” I thought, okay, I can do that. But it … Continue reading Time is relative →
