Recently I have found myself with an actual desire to read. For the folks that know me well, they understand that reading is not something I am particularly drawn to do. 😛 Regardless, it has been good as it has been feeding and challenging my heart and mind. I have picked up the book YouContinue reading “Victory?”

Again and Again
Shame. Shame so quickly and easily builds in our hearts often without us realizing it. It’s what keeps us from sharing our sins and struggles with anyone including our Father in Heaven. It entraps us in a feeling and sense on continuous defeat. Have you been there? Have you been there, gotten out and thenContinue reading “Again and Again”
In His Image
Our culture, ourselves, and our experiences are significant influences of how we think about ourselves. It has left many people really confused.

He sent the one who isContinue reading “Light is the Answer”
The Heart of Man – Movie
Have you seen it? I am a fan of this movie! This movie is full of symbolism and dramatic interpretation of the battle of sin, relationship with the Father and community. The depictions vividly demonstrate man’s battle with temptation, sin, and shame. There are several scenes that got my attention. There is a scene inContinue reading “The Heart of Man – Movie”
Truth: Greater is He!
I spent some time this morning journaling; very long overdue. God was there with me reading and knowing my heart as the words began to fall on the page. As I was thinking He was helping me realize the condition of my heart. Some of the phrases that I penned this morning: “Bottom line IContinue reading “Truth: Greater is He!”
The Truth Rescues
So earlier this week I shared a nugget about how the truth hurts. But there is more to that story if we are willing to include it in our story for growth and change. Being confronted by truth from the Holy Spirit, or others speaking into our lives can be for the good; life changing.Continue reading “The Truth Rescues”
