Handing Over Our Worries to God
I was nauseous as I drove to the visitation tonight for my dad’s passing. All day long leading up to the time I needed to go I was feeling pretty calm, like “I got this...” Then the time came to actually go. With an admittedly sheepish prayer for strength I drove to the funeral home. To my amazem...

We Need Each Other in Faith
So I’ve spent the afternoon yesterday with family and friends brought together by the sudden illness of my father. And as we gathered and shared stories, cried together and prayed together I couldn’t help but to write something about how we as Christians support one another...so I went digging. “...

Nothing Compares to Christ
You ever take a minute and look around your life and reflect on the blessing He has given you? I’m sure you have, we all do at times. This morning, as I was digging into the word, I was reflecting on some of those things and it struck me that much of what I was grateful for were things of this wo...

Growing Love Through Faith
As I sit here watching the sun come up this morning, I can help but marvel at the beauty God has made. How do I know he made it? Well, I have faith that he did. It’s the same faith that I have in Him that allows me to grow closer to Him. You see, developing a love for God is a little more challen...

Bloom Where You Are Planted
“But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare.”Jeremiah 29:7 God didn’t put you where you are by mistake. He doesn’t make mistakes. When we believe in our hearts God is good and that His though...

God's Peace That Surpasses All Understanding
In my daily prayer with God I’d say the number one thing I ask for is peace. Not much of anything matters to me as much as a sense of peace and serenity that only God can give me. You see, like most everyone, I too have seen some hard times. Heck, I’m sure there may be some more during my earthly...

Praying for Wisdom, Not Escape from Trials
Alright, so you are probably asking yourself, after yesterday’s message, “how exactly am I supposed to stay rejoicing during these hard times?” Well, I hear you and I get it. James is telling us to rejoice during our times of struggle because this faith produces perseverance. The Bible teaches us...

Be Still and Know That God's Got This
Over the weekend, I noticed a tattoo my friend had; “Be still and know”. This is from the Psalm of King David. Psalm 46:10-11“"Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!" The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. Se...

Every Good Gift Comes from Above
I hope you all had a great weekend and for all you fathers out there, you were able to spend a day doing what you wanted. I had a successful weekend in VA racing but it caused me pause to reflect on some things. Over two days of racing I won 10/12 races or “tests”. The two I lost were from a hard...

When God is Silent: Faith in the Quiet Moments
So I’ve been reading thinking about prayer and when God is listening. Does he take a break from listening? Naw, he’s always there...But how do we react when God is silent? You see, God uses silence to draw out faith. Great faith!When God is silent, do we listen to voices that question our right t...

Finding Faith Through Life's Emotional Motocross
One of the great things I love about racing motocross is the incredible amount of personal dialogue. I mean I literally go through every emotion I think in a weekend of racing. Fear, pain, excitement, anger, joy, hope and doubt. But what’s always great is because of these emotions, high or low, i...

Giving God Glory in Victory
So as I sit here in the airport this morning, I can’t help but reflect on a couple of things I saw last night as I watched Clemson win a National Championship. I saw two men giving the glory to God and bearing witness on the biggest stage in college football, The National Championship game!First,...

Standing Tall on Our 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...
