Love Believes the Best: Overcoming Gossip with Grace
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...

Taking Responsibility 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...

Grace: The Most Expensive Gift Given Freely
(That’s a lot of 2s)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 ge...

Compassion in a Divided World: Loving Those Who Oppose
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. Take the po...

Grace Not Works: The Foundation of Our Salvation
Ok, so this week we talked about being a good witness for Christ, bearing good fruit and trying to be more like Jesus. All of which we should be doing. However, I think it’s worthy of discussion as to just how these “good works” are viewed. While we may be confident in our work, confidence in our...

Loving Others: Seeing God's Image in Everyone
So, I’ve been reading and writing about how we need to try and live like Jesus would etc. As kids we were taught the Golden Rule (Jesus’ rule) threat others the way we want to be treated. Great idea, not so easy to do. Just yesterday, this clown with Florida tags in a crossover, going 60 miles an...

Finding Peace in the Journey of Trials
I had a great time at lunch with one of the 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 me purpose each morning to get up and not gi...

Embracing Weakness to Find God's Strength
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...

Everyone Has a Gift 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 not 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 dow...

Strength in Weakness: When Grace is Enough
Good morning, the treatments are in full effect right now and I’m pretty weak. I find myself crying out to make it go away but I can’t help but to think of Paul and his thorns. And because of it, sometimes scripture is enough. “But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is m...

Your True Identity: Adopted Son, Forever Daughter
Welcome to November!Ask yourself this, what is your identity? People mostly answer that question with a title. I’m a mom. I’m a dad. A golfer, racer, vegan, cross fitter, husband or wife...whatever. But that’s not necessarily your identity. It’s regarding the world but what about your identity in...

What Would Life Look Like Without Jesus?
What would your life look like without Jesus? I don’t know if you think about that, but I think about it often. I cringe at the thought of what my life would be without Jesus. I’m sure my heart would be cold because I felt it headed that way when I met Christ. I’d probably be pretty lonely. I may...

Faith: The Choice to Believe the Unseen
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...

Overcoming Evil with Good Through Forgiveness
In keeping with forgiveness, nobody ever suggested forgiving would be easy. I certainly didn’t and I’m not saying it is, because it’s not. But God challenges us by giving us the ability to forgive. But at the same time, it is one of the hardest things He asks us to do. But you can learn to forgiv...

Like the feeling you had when you were a kid and you got in trouble with your parents and they punished you and during that moment you felt like they have left you? I have for sure. But the thing is, that feeling that our...
