Looking Back Again

Round about a year ago, I was looking for a new job, a new place to live, and a new direction in my life. Now I have two jobs, a place to live, and enough direction to figure out where I should probably head from here. I'm probably going to sound like a broken record...

New Year, New Schedule

Once again, I find myself changing my blog schedule. I'll be posting my blogs on Tuesday, since my new schedule this year allows better writing time on that day. Speaking of new schedules, this past year has been full of changes for me. I went from one job to another,...

Some Things About the New Year

Recently I have learned and considered that there are some things we think and feel about a new year that could use some more thought. "New year, new me!" Just because the year is new doesn't automatically mean I suddenly am or am going to be a better person. It...

When God made the world He made it to include pictures for us. God made metaphors, parallels, little pieces of things for us to understand more about who He is. Take marriage, family, and authority for example. He invented each of these, and they are all...

Marks of Wisdom

What does godly wisdom look like? How do you know someone is wise in this way? What is wisdom in the first place? Where did it come from? We'll start by looking at the place from whence we find wisdom. Looking at Job 28:12-28, we find that wisdom comes from God. In...

Notebook Perusing

I decided to look in one of my old notebooks again. I don't quite remember when I picked up the habit, but I keep a notebook or something with me at all times to write important, profound, and/or funny things that I hear or see. Jesus is always as close as the mention...
