I often sit in the background. I prefer to sit behind other people; not because I devalue my self worth, but because of my pride. You see, I am confident in my abilities, but I don’t need to be loud about them. My actions speak far louder than any of my words ever will. I … Continue reading Lowly

Lost
Nothing is ‘by chance’. I think of my own life and how every person is carefully placed. Timing and circumstances align just so to orchestrate what seems like random events. That’s the thing… Our plans and everything we do to try to get ahead or get away are part of a larger plan. Look at … Continue reading Lost
The Bird
Earlier today a bird flew into my front door… The door was closed and the bird sadly didn’t make it… I read where birds can become lost in the glass and fly into windows thinking they are heading into more open spaces not knowing they are rushing headfirst into a hard object. Hmmm… How often … Continue reading The Bird
Life Lately
It’s been a while since I have written anything. Life was hectic before the storm and since the storm, I feel like I’ve been fighting for life. The storm that hit brought more than just the natural disaster…It brought internal turmoil on every front. I’m going to tell you that God is good. I haven’t … Continue reading Life Lately
Blinking Cursors
Do you ever want to type a message to someone but you sit there and stare at the blinking cursor, not knowing what to say? Like you have something on your mind, but you can’t get it to meet your fingers or you can’t even form the words? You just sit there and stare, willing … Continue reading Blinking Cursors
Listening
Sitting outside listening to the birds sing… oh to be that happy and carefree! I am so tired of fighting… I feel like every day is a battle… There is so much strife in life, in work, in everything, and I’m just so tired. Tell me what to do, Lord, I’m listening for your Word. … Continue reading Listening
Purpose and Gifts
We obsess over our purpose. Are we supposed to do this or that? What is my gift to the world? What is my talent? Am I supposed to teach or preach? How will I know what I’m supposed to do, who I’m supposed to be? Just stop. Stop asking the questions. Your purpose is to … Continue reading Purpose and Gifts
Clarity
Like a camera, we have the ability to zoom-in and focus on things in the distance. We can magnify the object in view and see the little details. We gain clarity in our picture. We can bring sights close where we can almost reach out and touch them. It seems so close, so large on … Continue reading Clarity
Rest
Every day may not be good, but there is something good in every day. That’s a true statement. Too often we all dwell on everything that is going wrong, but if you’re reading this, then something is going right. GOD didn’t rest until HIs work was finished. HE stepped back and saw that “everything was … Continue reading Rest
Just Listen
I had a friend send me a video to watch and listen and then relate my thoughts and feelings about it. I started on a blank page to compose my reply… The page remains blank to this day. It’s not that I had no thoughts or nothing to say (believe me, I always have thoughts … Continue reading Just Listen
