Be devoted to one another in brotherly love; give preference to one another in honor; not lagging behind in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; rejoicing in hope, persevering in tribulation, devoted to prayer...

    Pray Unselfishly

And it is not a one-way conversation with God to where we do all the talking, and he does all the listening, and to where it is all...

    Where are You?

    Loneliness and longing, Feeling not belonging, Fit not in the picture, Wond’ring ‘bout the future? Needing much endurance And much of assurance God is fully sovereign O’er to Him belonging? News brings much confusion, With it much illusion. Who then to be trusted? Not those who’re corrupted...

    Recovering from trauma and mental illness

    Three weeks ago today, I was involved in a traumatic, life-or- death car crash on the freeway. I was lost in thought, on my way to a doctor's appointment for an eating disorder that had, up until the crash, consumed my life. While was ruminating in my mind, I didn't notice that was too close to...

    In the Strength of The Lord

    “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this...

    “Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice. Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which...

    A Plea and Praise to the Lord

    My soul doth long for the Lord without ceasing; yea, in the depths of my sin and wandering did my spirit cry out for Him, that I might be restored unto His mercy. My heart knoweth no greater desire than to fall upon my knees before Him, to hear Him speak unto me, “Thou art Mine, thou art...

    Time to Ourselves

    Where are we now, in this world of ours? Can we escape? Go to the stars? Take a vacation? Block it all out? Laugh at it all, rather than pout? How will that help? Change anything? Sometimes a break keeps us breathing. Sometimes we need just time to ourselves, Sort through it all, then put on a...
