Repent or Perish: God's Call to Bear Fruit

“There were some present at that very time who told him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. And he answered them, "Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered in this way? No, I tell you; but unless...

The Gift You Have to Share

Did you know you have a gift to share? You do, whether you are aware of it or not you’ve got one. Some times these gifts may be internal knowledge or a skill you share. Many times is as simple as sharing a gift God has blessed you with. Maybe it’s a ride for a friend when their car is broken down...

Hard Work as Worship: Paul's Lesson on Grace

We can learn a lot from Paul...“For I am the least of the apostles, unworthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them, though it was not I, bu...

Showing Compassion to All

So, I’ve been thinking about what is really means to have compassion. I pray nightly that God lays compassion on my heart towards others...specifically those who oppose me. It’s hard these days with so many labels, differences of opinion, lifestyles, etc. to always connect with people. Anyhow, we...

Believing the Best in Others

I don’t know about you but I’ve got to do better at turning off gossip when I hear it. I also need to not “enable it” when I hear it by giving a participatory laugh or, “now way!” It just makes it worse. It seems as if now days we believe the negative stuff about people more than the positive stu...

Bearing Our Own Load with God's Grace

You ever feel like you have such a huge load or responsibility you find yourself ducking them or delegating them to someone else? I certainly do. But getting someone else to do them doesn’t change the fact you’re responsible for them. But when you take up the responsibility that’s in front of you...

What is Grace? Understanding God's Greatest Gift

Grace. What is it exactly? I mean I sign off with “Grace wins” everyday, but what exactly am I talking about? Well, in the book of Romans, Paul tells us that we can’t receive God’s favor, become righteous, by works alone. Meaning simply obeying the laws of the land wouldn’t get us His favor. So,...

Finding Peace in the Journey, Not the Destination

24I had a great time celebrating the fourth yesterday and got to spend time with a new member of our group yesterday and we got to talk about this devotional, keeping it going through my treatments and what I got out of it. Well, in short I just had to keep moving forward. Getting this out gave m...

WWJD: Faithful Witness vs Judging Others

I know I’ve written about this before, but y’all remember the WWJD bracelets we use to wear?I’ve been reading about how we should watch what we say and how we act and this came to mind. What ever happened to it? Did we figure out what Jesus would do? Did we stop caring? Well, I think it would be...

Embracing Weakness: When We Are Weak, Then We Are Strong

Without a doubt, this is one of my favorite verses in the Bible. “So to keep me from becoming conceited because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, a thorn was given me in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to harass me, to keep me from becoming conceited. Three times I pleaded with the...

The Ultimate Gift of Love

“"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.”John 3:16 We see it everywhere, it’s been commercialized, advertised and immortalized by famous athletes and commoners alike. But why shouldn’t it? It’s the single core a...

Nobody Stands Taller Than a Christian on His Knees

“Nobody stands as tall as a Christian on his knees”I love this anonymous quote. It reminds me to spend time on my knees and thank the Lord for all his blessings and forgiveness. I need it. And because I need it (forgiveness), and because he gave it, I am filled with His grace. God has me covered...

Don't Just Rinse - Put in the Work with Christ

I was feeling nostalgic this morning and thought about a topic I know I’ve written about a few times and I went back to some old devotionals and found it. I originally wrote this back in 2019 and I always seem to go back to it, or the subject in my own life. So, as I was washing my race bike on S...

Forgiveness Doesn't Mean Forgetting

You ever heard someone say, “that person’s hurt me so many times there’s no way I could ever forgive them”? I have...I may have thought it a time or two as well. Maybe you have? “Pay attention to yourselves! If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him, and if he sins against...

Stand Up for the Outcasts

“And as they continued to ask him, he stood up and said to them, "Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her."”John 8:7 In a world where opinions can go viral minutes after they’re posted, and social media debates go from zero to 100 in a hot second, it’s wise to re...

Quit Driving, Give God the Wheel

“Quit driving, give God have the wheel!”Look, I’ve talked about this many times before, but God continues to show me time and time again that He is in control, not me. No matter how many times I pray for something to happen or I try and drive a situation in my life the way I HAVE IT PLANNED, God...

Hope everyone’s week is off to a great start.

You Have a Gift to Share - Discovering Your Purpose

Did you know you have a gift to share? You do, whether you are aware of it or not you’ve got something to share. I got to reflecting about last weekend and all the different people I took up flying and how excited they were to get to do something they may never otherwise do. I feel so blessed to...

Faith: The Choice That Opens Heaven's Door

We talk about our faith everyday. We lean on our faith to get through everyday. Our faith gives us hope. But what is Faith really?In Hebrews it tells us;“Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.”Hebrews 11:1 That’s it! It’s believing in something we canno...

Starting Over: Grace for a New Life

One of the things I think about a lot is the grace that God has shown me. Like in the song, “I was blind but now I see..”. But no matter how grateful I am, I still have the moments when I think back on my life to times that make me cringe. I look back and realize no matter how hard I tried, I mad...

God's Love Without End

Almost everyday I like to look back at what I wrote and what we were talking about in the past years. It’s hard to believe I’ve been at this now since 2018. I am still humbled by the fact that you’re still here. Amazing really...so thank you. Anyhow, this is a throwback to two years ago. I rememb...
