Philippians 3:15-21 A dear friend of mine is moving back to her home town. She is very excited and full of anticipation. Every time we speak, one can hear the eagerness and desire of familiarity in her tone, a sense of over whelming joy can be heard. Her joy makes me think of the song […]
Read – The Bible Lawn grass is amazing. I hate mowing it and taking care of it, but grass has one thing going for it, it is resilient! By the end of fall, it looks somewhat brown and dead. It stops growing and loses its color, but then spring comes around and ‘abracadabra’…it’s back – healthy […]
1 Corinthians 10:6-13 I love a good thunder or snow storm, but not everyone feels that way; especially the people that have to work outside. The storm could mean a loss of pay, damage to property, or even loss of life. What if we would look at the storms in our lives like we look […]
2 Timothy 1:6-12 My friend and I were talking one time about how bad the roads are in Pennsylvania. He told me about a road sign he once saw in North Carolina that said, “Choose your rut carefully, you will be in it for the next 50 miles.” Our spiritual life can succumb to ruts just […]
James 1:13-18 How many times do we receive a gift from someone and, let’s say to be nice, it just isn’t something you would buy for yourself? Like the thousands upon thousands of neck ties that are found in the dump. We put on a smiley face and say, “Aww you shouldn’t have” all the while in reality we are […]

Read- Romans 8:31-39 If you know me, you know that I love snow. I have been thinking about that a lot lately because I hear many people (snow haters) out there complaining that they can’t wait until spring. I thought, “Am I the really that odd? I am in no hurry for the snow to […]
Read- Galatians 6:1-3 Good day beloved. While I was cruising down the highway the other day, I saw workers cleaning up trash. After passing them I saw all the trash that was awaiting them ahead. I never realized how much trash is alongside that road and I go that route daily. This got me thinking, […]
When I was first approached about sharing my testimony my first reaction was, “Oh! Ok.” The thought of rehashing all those emotions that I forcefully buried, so deeply with no intentions of ever revealing or dealing with them again, was literally nauseating. But then I thought, if my story could help someone then yeah, I’ll […]
Read- Acts 17:16-34 I know through my life I have said many times, “Why do I live here? I wish I lived ___.” or “I was born in the wrong decade or century.” Have you ever wondered how life would be if you had been born in a different place, with different parents, or even […]
