Will 2021 be better? My first thought is, “I pray it is!” But what if it gets worse? 2020, as we all know, was 100% insane and unpredictable. But so is everyday right? We can plan constantly but not everyday is consistent. One thing we can all relate to is that this year has been […]
I know it’s difficult. It can be frustrating and stressful. It can be overwhelming and worrisome. We are all going through some major changes in our world right now and we must continue to do one thing through it all – seek the Lord! Never stop seeking God and keep your eyes fixed on the […]
I feel most alive when I’m doing what God has called me to do. Not that I feel dead when I’m not teaching the bible or ministering to people, but I do feel invigorated and excited every time I get to share. That’s one way I KNOW that I am doing exactly what God has […]
Psalm 4:8 David writes, “I will both lie down in peace, and sleep; For You alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety.” It’s super early in the morning and my wife and daughters are asleep peacefully. There is nothing but silence in our home except I can faintly hear cars of early morning commuters […]

I’m on a small plane flying from Mobile, Alabama to Dallas, Texas. It is quiet except for the air blowing from the vents above each passenger. Some are reading their books, some are gazing into their tablets or smartphones and others are asleep or resting their eyes in the little space that they’ve overpaid for. […]
It’s so hard to wait. I’m in a line out the door at Wells Fargo as I’m writing this. People don’t have smiles because they know the wait will take a long, long time. As I’m at a stand still here I’m reflecting upon the last decade and how the Lord had me wait just […]
My family slept through the New Year – and it felt good! My prayer for 2020 is that we would have rest through every situation that arises. I want to have a settled heart through the most intense situations and a peace within when everything seems chaotic without. That in the midst of the storm […]
You’re not meant to neurotically reflect upon a passing year so much that it leaves you stressed and weary. In 2019 you had ups and you had downs.
