The Vagrant Faith: Owning Nothing, Having Everything
This has been an extremely difficult week for me. I’ve felt some of the lowest lows due to pain from treatment and the highest high from the relief. Yet for some reason, it’s given me pause to think about things I’m fighting to hang on to and things I need to let go. What are you trying to hang o...

Be Strong and Courageous: God Is Always With You
We’ve spent last week primarily talking about letting go and trusting God with his plan for us. So, I thought I would send us into the weekend with Joshua 1:9“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherev...

Good Lord Willing: Trusting God's Will in Prayer
“Good Lord willing …”How many times have we heard this saying as response to questions about our plans we have for our lives? I’ve heard it a lot! I’ve said it! I suppose it’s meant to express our beliefs that we believe and trust that if ______ is God’s will then it will be. But are we praying f...

Wait for the Lord - His Timing is Perfect
How are we doing waiting on God’s Plan for us? I ask because I’ve been a bit “all over the place” lately waiting to start treatments again…“Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!”Psalms 27:14 You know, when we go for the instant gratification, we give up...

Why Bad Things Happen: Understanding God's Plan
So, last night at dinner I was talking about my process and how I write our devotionals. I was sharing how I love to go back on occasions and see what was on my heart on this date in time. Well, It’s funny how God will tap you on the shoulder to remind you sometimes that “this ain’t new” and He’s...

Finding Peace When Your World Turns Upside Down
Can we have peace in our hearts when our world is turned upside down?Pretty good question that requires an honest look inward. You see the kind of peace the world give us is pretty sketch at best. It can change on a whim with no notice at all. Happened to me last summer with the cancer diagnosis,...

Press On: Leaving the Past Behind for God's Glory
I spent some time last week talking to a friend about doing some personal inventory, asking for redemption and then moving on. We must press on, we must leave the past in the past and press on in our daily lives not for our glory but His. Man, we need to let go of the past, the pain, the heartbre...

Thinking of Ourselves Less Often
“So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy, complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility coun...

Pride vs Faith: Who's Really Driving Your Life?
I had a great conversation with one of my friends and we were discussing times when we feel like “we got this” and we believe in our own selves and stop relying on God. You see this is caused by or led by Pride, the first sin. Pride tells us that we can do what want and we are enamored with ourse...

Letting Go: When God's Plan Trumps Yours
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 always seems to reply in His way by show...

Seeking God's Peace Over Escaping Our Problems
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...

Let It Go: Choosing Forgiveness Over Vengeance
Watching the news, scrolling through social media or just taking an watchful eye on what goes on around us, I can’t help but notice that it seems like everyone is out for vengeance. It’s ridiculous honestly. We have talked repeatedly about forgiveness and it’s a HUGE topic with me as it is the es...

The Vagrant Faith: Having Everything, Owning Nothing
What are you trying to hang on to that Jesus wants you to let go of, and turn it over to him for safekeeping? I’ve had to give up some things in my life that I thought I never could, but ultimately brought me closer to Christ. “This earth is not my home, I’m just passing through.” How many times...

Getting Off the Wrong Ride: The Power of Repentance
So I got to thinking about how life seems to ebb and flow with good times and bad. More specifically, as I was driving back from treatment, I got to thinking about how we can get stuck in the bad. I’m talking about that “stop the world I just want to get off this ride” feeling. We’ve all had it,...

To that point, he’s right in what I quoted above an...
