It has been a crazy time lately. Y’all know the scoop. It surely isn’t one filled with ice cream. I don’t want to talk about that. I want to say some things that have been in my heart for a while now. They are what I would say to a young woman, an elder, and…

In the not so distant past, a billboard of sorts for those who were in battle were the shields they carried. Some cultures had intricately designed ones, and others carried ones made of good ole’ wood (basic, but it got the job done). Meanwhile… while the homies were gearing up, the Vikings had people known…

John Donne said something that has come to my mind quite a few times, and it is something we take for granted today I feel. “No man is an island.” Today… we exalt the individual as God. Where human choice and will are celebrated, even when individual and collective choices are not held in respectful…

I’ve had a lingering thought floating around in my spirit for awhile now, and I want to share it with you. Sometimes I feel… God leaves the room. When I was younger, I certainly thought God wasn’t in my room (in the incorrect way). I dealt with a lot of issues stemming from narcissism from…

It’s in songs, and it’s in the heart. It is synonymous with control these days, rather than ability. POWER. Just as Thomas Edison tried to get “power” in the current wars with Nikolai Tesla — men strive for control, rather than the improvement of their abilities. Power is felt from a litany of different concepts,…

Jesus (the Way) did aerobics WAY before it was cool in the 80’s. He walked a lot. The LORD says to my lord: “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.” Psalm 110:1, KJV He spoke to whomever would listen in Israel, Jew and Gentile alike. Yet, he…

I don’t want to mention its name, yet it is running amok in the minds of people. It’s a virus. It is reasonable to fear something new that causes sickness, mild or otherwise. It still amazes me just how much people are panicking over it. No… I haven’t seen anyone freak out in person, but…

The timeless prayer Jesus prayed to the Father is one of my favorites, and I have come to understand it better over time. You probably know it. Our Father who is in heaven, may your name be revered forever. May your kingdom come, and may your will be done on the earth as it is…

There is a word that can tame the very bowels of hell. It is a word that manifested so greatly in the Son of God, that even demons need muscle relaxers to stop the shaking in their knees. It is a word that the devil himself cannot use, for it has become foreign to him….

Over 2000 years ago a little guy came into the world. Jesus. There were no hospital beds, and no cuddly blue blankets. For him it was something that would make cereal makers very proud. Straw and swaddling cloth. And for the bed? Something that smelled like the sheep that ate from it. A manger. Says…
