When It Gets Tough…

So, I’m sitting in the office area in my house and this feels old. My wife and I have been trying for the past few weeks to find something substancial for employment and nothing seems to be working. Or at least that’s how it feels… I think that right now it seems really hard to [...]

Strength Will Rise…

27 Why do you say, O Jacob, and complain, O Israel, “My way is hidden from the LORD; my cause is disregarded by my God”?28 Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and [...]

‘All I want you to do is walk…’

Joshua 5-6 How I really needed that one today! This passage is a story and it wouldn’t seem to have anything to do with my life right now. But when you’re struggling, God seems to find a way to get through to you.  I don’t even normally do the daily reading, but thought I might [...]

Worship Leader A.D.D.

I was talking to my wife this morning about life and all of the decisions that we have to make in the upcoming weeks. I visited an area church yesterday that we are interested in and I was filling her in on the details. As I talked to her, I realized that my brain is [...]

Consider This…

So, I just got blown away! I was looking through a hymnal just now trying to prepare for Sunday and ran across a song I’d never heard of before. It’s called “Have You Any Room for Jesus?”. It’s number 478 in the Celebration Hymnal. Anyway, I decided to read through it just because I’m sitting [...]

What God Can Do!

When God does what He does, it’s amazing! I know this will come across as a start contrast from the last post, but that’s what God can do. I am a firm believer in God working in what we call ‘behind the scenes’. It only seems that way because we don’t always see what He’s [...]
