“HAN”

“Han”.  A Korean word for a sadness so deep that tears won’t come.  A sadness that is deep rooted in the soul.   That gives me pause.  It seems that I encounter so many people, in my daily travels, that seem to be so sad.  People who look lost and burdened by the cares of…

The Simplicity of God!

The sticker read: “God said it, I believe it, That settles it!!”  Simplicity.  In a world that seems to be out of control with complexity it gives my heart peace to know that we worship a God that is so simple.  Our sinful nature has produced a world full of complexity and values that are…

Why Do Christmas?

This Christmas my heart has felt heavy with a burden of the things I see.   Two thousand years ago our Savior sacrificed the glories of heaven out of a deep love for us.   He come to this earth, as an infant, in order that we might have life.  As I attend Christmas parties……

Why Did He Come?

Lately I have pondered what Christ thought as he prepared to come to earth to live with us.  As he left his heavenly home, in the comfort of his father.  As he gave up the glory of heaven to enter the womb of Mary.  He must have agonized over his horrifying death.  He must have…

A Light Of Passion!

Do you live with passion and purpose?  When you walk past someone playing the piano with skill and talent, do you stop to marvel at the gift that God has given? Do you get excited and emotional when you hear a voice sing as if it was directly from God?  Do you find joy in…

AMAZING GRACE!

Do you live each minute, of each day, with a heart of praise or do you wait for everything to go your way?  He had faced so many hardships.  Sickness, stoning, beatings and prison.  Thru it all his heart of thanksgiving never wavered.  His praise to our Savior never faltered. The apostle Paul was giving…

You Say You Love Me!

My Heavenly Father! You say you love me but I don’t know how to be your child.  You say you have grace untold for me but I don’t deserve it.  You fill my life with favor but I don’t know why.  I try each day to make you proud.  To be your hands… your feet……
