This morning, I thank God for continuing to confirm His plan for my life. I just want to encourage you today. If God tells you to do something, do it regardless of how crazy it seems or how you/others may feel about it. Be wise.

The Goodness of God
Last week, I was blessed to be able to spend a few days by the ocean. While sitting on the beach, I looked out at the ocean. I could only see the shore where the water met the land but I could not see where it ended. All I could see was its vastness andContinue reading “The Goodness of God”
The Art of Letting Go
For years, I had an issue with letting go because of things I experienced as a kid. Due to the absence of several key people in my life, I tended to hold tightly to the people God placed in my life. My idea of loyalty was never walking away and loving hard. However, I hadContinue reading “The Art of Letting Go”
At His Feet
We live in a time of urgency. Everyone is constantly rushing to get from one place to the next. We want everything in a hurry. That’s why we want fast food because it is hot and ready. If we aren’t careful, we will find ourselves having that same attitude when it comes to our faith.Continue reading “At His Feet”
Seasons of Life
Fall and Winter are my favorite times of the year. I loathe the heat of Texas summers and the allergies that come along with the Spring. However, each season has its purpose.

Call…Don’t Fall!
While in the rehabilitation hospital after my surgeries in 2016, I was surrounded by signs that read, “Call Don’t Fall”. It reminded me of Romans 10:13, “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Initially, this can apply to when we accept the Lord into our lives but I wantContinue reading “Call…Don’t Fall!”
“Even If”
In loving memory of my dear cousin and friend, Catina, who went home to be with the Lord, April 20, 2020. Thanks Catina for showing me what it truly means to have defiant hope and an “Even If” testimony. On Resurrection Sunday, I listened to a very powerful message preached by Pastor Bryan Jarrett atContinue reading ““Even If””
