Guest post

This off -schedule post is because I am pleased to present you with a guest post I wrote for my friend Acacia's blog. Consider it pure joy…. You’ve got to be kidding. I bet you know where I am going. “Consider it pure joy when you face trials of many kinds” Seriously? Can that be …

Invisible Power

A few years ago, my sister went to a Toby Mac concert. She came home with a T-shirt that had one of his song lyrics - Speak Life. This was a hit song of his a few years ago. I really like this song and the message behind it. Our words have such power. They …

Welcome or welcome back to the third instalment of my new blog series Moral Treasure Hunt. Here we discuss different aspects of our culture and how we can find God or Treasure in the midst of a world that seems to be falling away. My heart for this series is to encourage you all that …

A Blank Page

If you write or journal, you probably know the excitement of turning to a new page in your journal or looking at a blank sheet of paper be it electronic or not. I like to look at September as a blank page. God has written my year and now He's about to begin a new …

Two of the Most Powerful Words

I'm  sure when we were young our parents told us to "remember your manners" or "mind your p's and q's." It's nice to hear a "thank you" from someone when we do something for them. But I think now, with everything going on with COVID, and the risk it is to be out in public, …

The Epitome of Faithfulness

Is it possible a dog can be more than a dog?? Is it possible the bond between a dog and a human can go so deep and strong that there are no words to describe it? Is it possible that even in the last days and weeks of life a dog can teach lessons that …
