I fear that there may be discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, slander, gossip, arrogance and disorder. – 2 Corinthians 12:20
Church splits, divisions, gossiping and all kinds of fleshly problems is something we can think is normal in the Church life. Who has not been involved in a...
So the last week or so have been a little rattling for me. Tonight, I was feeling a little down about things. I'm not talking completely depressed or anything but I could be better. I think we all have these days. Now that the summer is here, my kids are out of school which means, due to work...
Won’t be fooled by your ruse again Will never again lose this game Never again – your puppet on strings Tear them ou, fly away on eagles wings Turn heel and run – just run like hell Like hell is on your heels and your wounds won’t heal Block your ears and drown out the … <a...
If I could play this again I would win- two steps ahead Playing for the final weigh-in – You bring the fire I’ll bring the wire cutter Let the balloon take us higher – You can play the game I’ll set fire to the rules And let them go in flames – A mask with … <a...
The last few days have not been my greatest. I surely am not at my peak. I didn't feel close to the Lord at all. I looked for encouragement and inspiration but nothing was working. I felt lost in so many ways. Too many to count as it were. So, tonight I went to the store just to browse and...
The topic of my last article was on perseverance.
When I wrote it, I had no idea that I was about to enter an extremely tough time in my life.
Since that article nearly three weeks ago, things have taken a difficult turn.
My mother, who lost the use of her right leg two years, has now lost the...
One of the things I would like to deny about myself (but can’t) is that I have a tendency to bail on things.
When someone raises their voice to me, I’m ready to walk away.
When my life becomes what I feel I didn’t sign up for, I start seeing greener grass.
Whenever I’m in a funk, I start to...
The demon of my dreams was once an angel She was once adorned with a golden halo Like a dreaming wonderland It suddenly becomes a taunting never-land The friend we once held close Now is a thief dressed in a cloak She once held an apple, promising love But now she chases with hunting knives … <a...
All too often I hear people say they think they have sinned too much to go back to Christ. But we know He will always take you back! His love is un-ending as is His forgiveness!!

I see you beautiful face every night But you’re never there when I open my eyes I’ve held your hand in a thousand dreams Our story lives on in the land of my sleep A thousand dreams, a thousand lives Replayed time and again in my mind Yet every time, no matter how I try … <a...
You took the oath of allegiance Took one knee and swore obeisance Buckled up the armour of steel Swung your sword till you got the feel Hut! Jump to the mark! Sir, yes, Sir! You answer drill seargeant’s bark Drop and give fifty – running through the paces But only you know if you’re going … <a...
I’m disappointed.
Constantly.
Other people irritate me. They don’t do the things I want them to do. They don’t react the way I want them to react.
They’re rude. They’re inconsiderate. They’re selfish.
And this leaves me constantly annoyed, angry, frustrated and disillusioned.
And I’m officially...
In the past few years I have been living a life that is more intentional, peaceful and controlled.
And as I slow down, I notice more than ever just how fast our lives can often be.
Some of my friends are always on the go! They eat out several times a week. They’re involved in many...
Near-fatal car accidents.
Self-reflection.
Priorities.
What do they all have in common? Well, at least for me, they helped me with gaining perspective.
April 14, 2010 is a day I will never forget.
Having made an “it’s about time” exit from winter, spring was amongst us. And the grass in my lawn...
The land is green and gold With many plants untold Sheep graze on grass In the safety of the fold The land has blue Water to refresh you Bright colors announce anew That spring is now due The land has many creatures That inhabit it’s features Most notable are humans – strange creatures Now hark...
You never really forget your first sweetheart And you’ll never get over why it fell apart Never really understand how you got played Never stop wishing you could relive those days The nightmares won’t cease and dreams won’t appease The emptiness when one takes your heart’s piece The bleeding...
Just because I’m in the night Doesn’t mean I don’t love the light Just right now, my world is dark Dark like the blackest night – tis truth stark When one might as well have no sight Oppressive and forboding, Crushing the soul, body, and mind So thick that you could sink in it and … <a...
How is your faith? Would you follow Christ into deep waters? There are times when Christ will hold out His hand and call you to follow him into deeper waters. Will you follow Him or will fear keep you. This is often found in times of trial. Christ would never lead you into deep waters and let...
Growing old is inevitable.
Sure we can dress young, act young, and even color our hair to make us think we’re young.
But, at a certain point, we are suddenly slapped with a jarring realization: we are closer to the grave than the cradle.
I watched a movie recently about a group of former...
One of my biggest weaknesses (and I stress one of them) is just how impatient I am. I want everything my way. Right away!
Actually, perhaps I’m not alone in this…
We’re living in a growing culture of impatience, which makes us conditioned to crave more and more instant gratification. For me, I...
