The light at the end of the tunnel…I once joked that the light flickered and faded and all I saw was the dark tunnel. Here’s the question: what is the tunnel? Usually they are underground…a way to go from one place to another. Sometimes it is cool, temperature wise, with the earth on all sides. … Continue reading Tunnels

Proof
“Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from thee.” Matthew 12:38 (KJV) We look for signs everywhere telling us what to do, where to go, what to speak…we want proof we are going right.

Our coworkers move up the ladder or on to bigger and better things. We move up, too. Or we change … Continue reading Zoom…Out
Who Am I…

Inhale ~ Exhale
Prayer. In John, it’s recorded that JESUS told HIS disciples that they no longer needed HIM to pray for them, but they could pray in HIS name. Anything asked through HIS name, the FATHER would hear. How amazing is that?!! We don’t have to go through anyone other than JESUS to get to the FATHER. … Continue reading Inhale ~ Exhale
