When anger turns to pity…what a transformation to behold! Recently a situation occurred where a choice was to be made: go here or there… Though many thought the choice obvious, the person decided to go there, instead.

Reactions
Your life may suck, but it’s your example that matters. Your life can go wrong in every way shape and form, but people are watching your reactions: they want to know how to react. People are always watching you. So yeah, you’re gonna have it bad and there are times that you’re not going to … Continue reading Reactions
Resistant
Roots of doubt and sin run deep. We can pull out the roots and clean up all the trash, but if we leave just one piece behind, that one piece is enough to start a new plant. Think in the natural sense, how bulbs are cut and multiplied. These plants become resistant to all kinds … Continue reading Resistant
Faith and Confidence
We all know the story of Daniel in the lions’ den. How his enemies conspired against him to put him there. How his GOD shut up the mouths of the lions and protected him. How even the king at that time was concerned with Daniel’s survival… Oh to have that faith, especially when the trials … Continue reading Faith and Confidence

I’ve been struggling today…trying to find reasons… And it just hit me as I opened this app to write a few words: it’s August. That’s why I can’t sleep peacefully. That’s why I can’t focus. That’s why I’m trying to find reasons to keep going. It’s been fifteen years and I still have a hard … Continue reading …

So, I’ve been doing a good bit of soul-searching lately. And I’m quite confused. Part of me is like “Oh, okay, that’s gotta be it…” and another part is saying “But wait, what about this…?” Do you ever feel like you take one step forward and five steps back? It’s like the harder you try … Continue reading All Over the Place
Migraine
Even through my closed eyes I could see the light…all lights off, the door closed and I lay on the cement tile willing this to stop. Blinding light in the dark. No source. Just light shooting pain like daggers. My vision failed as heat waves rose and I shivered as the temperature dropped. Cold sweat … Continue reading Migraine
Cracks
“We are broken children living in adult size, made from broken pieces, cracks scattering the light…” A line from a poem written long ago. Still fresh as the day I wrote it. I can choose to look at life from a broken point of view, or I can put my pieces back together and see … Continue reading Cracks
Deaf and Blind
I was reading in Isaiah and was struck with how plain the words were… And yet, I worry that I am that which was foretold. Who is deaf? One who cannot hear… But if the ears are never opened, how can one hear HIM? It is impossible. You see, in another place, it is written … Continue reading Deaf and Blind
Silence
I look around and see so much I have to be thankful for… My personal life has been full lately, mostly good things, things that should make me overjoyed. But I just want to sit in silence and cry. This past Mother’s Day was the first in years that I didn’t spend crying the entire … Continue reading Silence
