This past week was somewhat frustrating but at the same time gratifying. You see, somewhere in the crazy journey of mine to grow my relationship with Christ, I think I’m beginning to learn what humility all means.

Don't Follow Your Heart, Guide It

I probably enjoy social media a little bit more than I should, but to me it’s can be sad, hilarious, frustrating and many times disappointing. But I can’t help but see a reoccurring theme in so many of these “inspirational-motivational” posts. They all seemed centered around “trust your heart”, “...

Stop Wasting Time, Start Living Your Purpose

I’ve made the decision a long time ago to stop wasting time with things that keep me from being who and what God’s calling me to be, it’s just exhausting...Don’t look at others’ lives and believe for one moment that they are able to do more because they have more than you. We all have the same nu...

Living Intentionally: Start Today, Not Tomorrow

Let’s shift gears a little and talk about where we are going? This time next year, where do you want to be? Who do you want to be? What type of follower of Christ, spouse or parent do you want to be? Whatever the answers are to those questions, know this: God’s calling you to live in the NOW & st...

Don't Let the Past Dictate Your Destiny

So, I’ve been thinking lately, reflecting on the past both good and bad, and one of the things I keep coming back to is what and why I feared some of the things I’ve been through and survived and what or why would I fear what’s ahead of me. I think with the current environment we are all wonderin...

Your True Identity: Adopted Child of God

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 Christ? Well, you’r...

Count It All Joy Through Trials

As I sit here this morning reading and wondering what we will talk about, my mind continues to slip to Monday’s surgery and how this has seemingly drug on forever…mainly because I still feel it. But the thing is, I’m not complaining. Probably because I’ve learned that this is all part of my story...

Right Where God Wants You

As I head in the pre-op this morning, I want you to know I believe in something very simple. Regardless of your age or current phase of life, God isn’t done with us yet. Despite our sometimes dissatisfaction of where we are in our life currently, God has us right where He wants us for a reason. L...

God Uses Your Talents to Serve Others

So, in my ongoing search to be a better person, I would always ask God to help me become “a better man.” Funny thing is, I wasn’t exactly sure what that meant. I just knew that it wasn’t who I was feeling I was inside. Well, a funny thing happened...You see, while I was searching and hoping that...

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...

Finding Your God-Given Calling Amidst Life's Distractions

For much of my life I was a bit directionless. If someone asked me to do something and if it even kind of felt like a good idea, I would do it. I spread myself pretty thin. Because I could turn my hand to a number of things (to a certain degree) I was tempted to follow other people’s dreams and e...

Who Are You Reflecting - God or the World?

So I had a great conversation down in Florida over the weekend with a buddy on this devotional chain about the different stages we’ve been through in life as it pertained to “stuff” we acquired. And when I mean stuff, I’m talking about the fancy cars and expansive homes, etc. We basically conclud...

When God Says No: His Plans for Your Good

When we talk about our struggles and how we are just trying to get through “it” aren’t we really just talking about how we are to deal with God’s NO? I mean think about most of the disappointments you’ve experienced. Probably the one thing they all had in common is they didn’t fit into your plan...

God's Way Out Isn't What We Expect

You ever notice that when we finally get out of whatever it is we are suffering from it never seems to be the way we thought we would get out of it? Like during our suffering we could never understand or see the way out that God has for us. It’s because it’s His plan for us not our plan for us. H...

Waiting on God's Perfect Timing

How are we doing waiting on God’s Plan for us? I ask because I’ve been a bit “all over the place” lately wanting to be done with treatments but knowing they’re going to be indefinite…it’s frustrating, but I have to relax and wait. “Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wa...

What Are You Waiting For? Step Into God's Plans

What are you waiting for? I’ve been thinking about this simple question for over a week now. You see, last year I was being called to step away from a long career and focus on health, faith, family and friends. While I wasn’t really sure what it was going to look like, I soon realized God had big...

Living Your Purpose as God's Light

As many of you know, I’ve raced motocross for quite some time. But since cancer, I’ve spent most my time flying and riding less.

God's New Thing in Every Season

So, I promised you this devotional would NOT be about me and my cancer fight. However, it has given me great cause to reflect on the seasons we go through and why we are where we are. But I strongly believe we are where we are for a reason and God wants us to ask Him to get involved! He wants us...
