Things Above

It’s a big day for many, it’s Super Bowl Sunday! A highly anticipated day for so many different reasons. The food, the parties, the big screens, the cheering, the full blown dedication to your team of choice. There will be comradery, yet division between the two sides. Every year, year after year, the second Sunday…

I want you to read Job 38 and 39. Aside from it being words from the Lord and beautifully written, it gives a whole new level of appreciation for God’s power, majesty and sovereignty.  The book of Job is such an interesting book because it highlights why suffering can happen, righteous versus the wicked, warns…

I’ve changed my prayer from “God send me a man” to “God position me and my heart for a husband”. Every male isn’t a man and every man doesn’t want to be a husband. Specificity is required. I’ve talked about it before, but I love the book 31 Prayers for my future Husband by Jennifer…

Fasting is hard. There I said it. Just because it’s something we are supposed to do, it doesn’t mean that it will be easy. Most of what God calls us to do is uncomfortable, stretches us to places and calls us to new ones.  Sometimes when fasting you can mindlessly mess up. You grab for…

I know, the title is a little funky but we like to have fun over here. I want to give a S/O to Priscilla Shirer because she said something that has played over and over in my mind for days. It was powerful and practical.  She was speaking on the Candace Cameron Bure podcast and…

If you’re reading this, you have something to praise God for.  Happy New Year! We have been kept for another year and have been chosen to enter into 2025! Let’s pause to thank God for his faithfulness and promises.  One of the many new things I tried last year was cycling. I joined the Cycle…

At any point in time, we are living an answered prayer. For a while, I’ve wanted to have a New York Christmas and this year I was blessed to do so. Everyday spent there was packed with activities. I walked over 32,000 steps which was about 13 miles, I visited several popular and iconic places,…

What a privilege to gather with family.  What a privilege to stay home.  What a privilege to have someone call you on the phone.  What a privilege to have dinner to cook.  What a privilege to have a house to clean. What a privilege to be overwhelmed with plans.  What a privilege to have a…

1 Some time later, Jesus went up to Jerusalem for one of the Jewish festivals. 2 Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool, which in Aramaic is called Bethesda and which is surrounded by five covered colonnades. 3 Here a great number of disabled people used to lie—the blind, the lame, the paralyzed. 5 One who was there had…

For growing Christians and mature ones, John 5:19-24 has one of the best explanations of the connectedness and relationship between the Father and the Son.  To wrap your mind around the concept of God and Jesus being the same, but different can be difficult. My advice is to accept it as the truth and don’t…
