There’s an old saying, “…your sins will catch up with you.” Undoubtedly accurate. Sometimes it feels as if we’re living on tenderhooks of unrepented sins. Rather silly, isn’t it? When we sinned, the Lord was with us (remember His words that He would never leave us… that included when we did/said what we shouldn’t) – […]
No such thing when it comes to your sins. There is never a little sin or sinning just a little. And don’t get me started on ‘just a little white lie…’ There is absolutely nothing ‘little; about a lie. A lie is a lie – period! Just as Sin is killing. And attempting to cover

Sometimes… this isn’t enough. Sometimes, you really don’t know what to do now (after your best of intentions didn’t work). Sometimes you really did have the best of intentions but it was all wrong – wrong timing, wrong expression, wrong focus… wrong. There are all sorts of semi-positive reasons that the best of intentions didn’t

I would suggest that every decision, from the smallest to the greatest, affords us a minimum of 2 choices. I’m not sure there really is an, ‘I didn’t have any choice!’ Actually, I believe that there are always a multitude of options and choices available to us when we take the time to consider. Sometimes

But, I wonder if sometimes we want the answer to (fill in the blank) to be … not at this time.
I realize that this smacks of, “if at first you don’t succeed… try, try again”. True. But the question is – is this how you react, is this your mindset? Or do you think, ‘this wasn’t the best choice… now what?’ Or do you throw your hands up and walk away? Was it really a

Two pronged, actually. One is … who/what do you blame. The other is – do you feel that the finger of blame is always pointed at you… and you are blameless?Seriously – who and what do you blame? Do you have a ‘go to’ blame-ee? What’s your first thought? To shift the blame focus from you
Let God be GOD. If your response is, ‘Of course!’ Don’t be too hasty. What does that mean to you? How are you allowing God to be GOD in your life? Does He have access to ALL parts in your life… and how – in what ways? Letting God be God requires you (us) to be attentive to what He
