  • Sometimes Enough Is Tooooooo Much

    Sometimes Enough Is Tooooooo Much

    Do you ever  just feel like you can’t take it any more?  You feel like you have taken all that you can take but yet it seems like things keep piling up?  What do you do? Well for a long time I lived by the maxim that says, “what doesn’t kill you only makes you…

  • And Then Comes Spring

    In the winter season, it is easy to forget that in spite of gray skies and lifeless looking trees, there is something wonderful happening.  Life is begetting life even when we cannot see it.  The same is true for the winters of our souls.  In each of our lives we experience seasons.  Things grow, blossom,…

  • Emerge and See (Emergency)

    In his book, Unhypnosis, my new friend, Dr. Steve Taubman explains how most of us walk around hypnotized without even knowing it.  His theory is that in our early stages of life, when we had very little defense, we were basically programmed by those around us to see the world and ourselves in a certain…

  • How Certain Material “Miracles” Become Distractions

    Nothing used to annoy me more than the preachers of the Prosperity Gospel.  I felt like they were turning Christ’s message of faith into something you could find on an infomercial.  It seemed like money and “blessings” were the only things on their minds and like any other pyramid system it was the people on…

  • I Don’t Need To Look At The Sun To Feel It

    I was on a break during class when I saw a classmate, Sarah Wilson, looking at her smartphone.  I jokingly said to her, how can you be looking at your phone when it’s beautiful out today.  Her response was simple and ultimately struck me as very profound with regard to its spiritual implications.  She replied,…

  • Trance End!: Seeing Truth Beyond Facts

    My original intent for this post was to write something about how the world needs to wake up.  But as I started to think about what my message would be, I started to ask myself what exactly I was imploring people to wake up to.  I wondered  if it selfish was for me to say…

  • Winning and Losing

    Matthew 13:12 – For whoever has, to him more will be given, and he will have abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him. Have you ever had dreams of winning it big?  Wow!  Imagine what you could do with more.  It would be awesome.  If you…

  • I Almost Forgot Why I Came Here

    So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord. For we walk by faith, not by sight. We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord. (2 Corinthians 5:6-8) Beloved, I beg…

  • The Light Is Everywhere

    Have you ever noticed how the deepest love songs always sound like they could be sung to God whether it was clearly the artist’s intent or not.  My uncle pointed that out to me when I was a little kid and I have never forgotten it.  A lot of times when I am trying to…

  • Getting Back to Good

    Matthew 18:1-5 —  At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” Then Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in the midst of them,  and said, “Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means…
