It’s A Really Big Picture!

When is the last time, you took the time, to listen to someone you disagree with?  To open your heart and mind with love, to understanding their point of view.  If there is anything Jesus taught us it is we are to have empathy and understanding for everyone.  Freedom in Christ isn’t easy… but it is necessary.  Daily I…

Don’t Limit God!

His question was “Are dinosaurs in the Bible?” When your 11 you are fascinated by dinosaurs… so am I.  As I told him no I also told him that I believe they existed during the time of creation before God made man.  To which I was asked “how, when it only took 6 days for…

Live Humbly

Daily I watch as this country wants what’s best for us.  I watch as that country wants what is best for them. We live in a world, from one end of the globe to the other, where everyone is mainly concerned about themselves.  Where is God in all of this?  Where is Christ in all…

Do you ever feel confused?  Feel like craziness has surrounded you?  Do you feel like chaos is the order of the day and peace has left on a train?  Jesus did not promise an easy life.  There will be times when the waves will rise and you feel like you are drowning!  Jesus never said…
