Finding God's Peace in Hard Times
Wow, November already…So, I did me some thinking over the weekend about my daily prayer with God and I’d say the number one thing I ask for is peace.

Stop and Really Listen: What a Friend We Have in Jesus
Every once in a while I will stop, take a breath and really listen. What I mean is we live in such a fast paced world and our brains pick up on things that provide stimulus to us an it deciphers what we are hearing or reading without us consciously really reading or hearing it. You dig what I’m t...

Forgiveness as an Act of Worship
Welp, we made it another week! Let’s take the weekend and think about forgiveness.

The Heart of Gratitude: Learning from the Ten Lepers
Listen, you ever held the door for someone these days and they don’t say thank you or even acknowledge the act of kindness? I have and I see it happening more and more in all areas of our lives.

God Is Speaking - Are You Listening?
Have you heard God? Is He actively speaking to us? Well, the answer to the last question is a most definite yes. But here’s the deal, I haven’t heard Him with my own ears in the literal sense, but I most certainly do hear him. You see God can speak to us in a number of ways. The most obvious way...

Standing Tall on Your 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...

To Be Forgiven, You Must Forgive Others

God is Always Speaking - Are We Listening?
So, I think it’s safe to say we all pray in some capacity for something, right? I would also think it’s fair to say that we are waiting for God to answer our prayers.

The Power of Gratitude in Building Friendships
So I was reflecting on a few things from over the last few days and specifically how thankful I am to have the people that I do in my life.

Grateful for What We Take for Granted
I want to keep talking about gratitude, where our mind is and what we are actually thankful for. We’ve talked all week about being intentional about looking for God in all things.

Prayer and Trust Go Hand in Hand
