    Lessons from Jonah

    Lessons from Jonah

    I want to share my thoughts and pose a question from the book of Jonah.  It’s not something we broadcast, but in truth we are all like Jonah, not wanting to bring the message of repentance to our enemies, those who have wronged us or those we don’t want to have a second chance.  See…

    The Cherry On Top

    The Cherry On Top

    I celebrated my birthday last month and for the last few years I started choosing themes for each birthday. This year I chose cherries. I had cherry accessories for my purse, a cherry decorated cake, a cherry nail art, etc. I even went to the Museum of Ice Cream and had no idea there would…

    The Trifecta

    The Trifecta

    “By wisdom a house is built, and through understanding it is established; through knowledge its rooms are filled with rare and beautiful treasures.” Proverbs 24:3-4 In this verse and throughout Proverbs we constantly read about wisdom, knowledge and understanding. These are so closely linked and yet different, it makes me think of the trinity, Father,…

    Which Woman?

    Which Woman?

    As a man it’s important to choose the right woman for yourself. Some men may feel like there are too many options to narrow down the choice and others feel like it’s slim pickings.  From a man’s perspective when you are interested in a woman, you get to know her and essentially see what she’s…

    Freedom Bells

    Freedom Bells

    This past Thursday was Juneteenth, we celebrated liberation and the message of freedom that arrived to the remaining enslaved people. The motion of freedom was set in place over two years ago, but its effect didn’t reach every person. There were still slaves in Galveston, Texas completely unaware that freedom bells were ringing in the…

    Rest That Builds

    Rest That Builds

    Solomon sent back this message to Hiram: “You know that because of the wars waged against my father David from all sides, he could not build a temple for the Name of the Lord his God until the Lord put his enemies under his feet.  But now the Lord my God has given me rest…

    Curated Artistry

    Curated Artistry

    “This is the day the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it.“ It’s amazing how the word is renewed within you as you continually reach for God’s hand.  I woke up and recited that scripture, but the word “made” echoed to me.  Made.  Made.   Made.  Any word could have been used…

    Heavenly Father, maker of heaven and earth, the one who was, who is, and is to come, we enter this new month of June with grateful and open hearts. Thank you for the gift of a fresh start. Your mercies are new every morning, and with each new month, you call to us saying, “I…

    Cherry Red Paint

    Cherry Red Paint

    One morning the fire hydrant in the yard was getting repainted. I didn’t notice how faded it was getting until I saw the new layers of cherry red paint being applied to it.  Out of all the hydrants in the county and across all the neighborhoods, our fire hydrant  was remembered. I’m sure the fire…

    Advice Before the Advice

    Advice Before the Advice

    I thought about how I could write about this without talking in circles or revealing too much irrelevant information. I typed and backed space so many times that I almost trashed the whole post.  If it were up to me, I would have, but I want to do the things the Lord tells me.   In…
