In 2015 I wrote a post that I titled… ‘In the trenches’. Perhaps because of the times we live in, I thought a bit of a revisit was in order. I, obviously, can’t speak for you but, for me, there are times that this is precisely how I feel. YET… I have nothing to complain […]

“Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be His people, and God himself will be with them as their God. … Behold, I am making all things new.” Also He said, ‘Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.’” (Revelations 21:3, AMP) A
Do you know if you are congruent? Do you listen to what you say… and see what you do? Do you like you… despite your ‘failings’? How do you know all that? Can one tell from your words and behavior? Are your words and behavior like shifting sand… all over the place, spilling over, not
I think we all face at least one ‘unbearable’ in our lives. Actually, we probably experience many unbearables. Some of us feel like we have far more than our fair share. And realizing all this helps us get through those times. Because we need to have the mindset that unbearables is something we go through…

Becoming a better me … I do write about this a great deal because it’s so important… at least this is what I believe. I have made some discoveries regarding this subject. The first one is desire. You have to want to become your best because no one is going to do this for you! No magic wand.
It’s all about desire … yours! Read More »
Have you even been in the situation in which you discovered you just might need an attitude adjustment… but in an area that you felt you had already reach an understanding about who you were and how you should act in (fill in the blank) situations?

In April, 2020 a Grace Covenant Church’s article stated: “Biblical waiting is not a passive activity, but is demonstrated by active dependence upon and obedience to God.” I’m sure others have also come to this realization. Too often we do think that if we wait, that’s what we do… wait (think – twiddle thumbs). I don’t
Explain to me, if you can, why we always seem to focus on what we don’t have rather than what we do! Silly really. When we do this we don’t maximize what we have, only moan about what we don’t. And that gets us even further behind/removed from what we should be seeing and doing. Yes, our
