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…

Little Things
Recently I told my sister that there are so many new songs that are titled “Little Things” or “Little Nothings” or have some combination of those words.

Fear of the Lord
In the words of minister John Bevere, “it’s really more than a message, it’s a life message.” Indeed it is! If you want to learn what the fear of the Lord is, examples of it and hear testimonies that will give you the chills, press play. If you don’t feel like you need to learn…
