Book Metaphors

I came across an entry in one of my notebooks, and it was good to be reminded that God is the Author of life, and He knows how to write and finish good stories. When life happens and things change, whether we like those things or not, we need to turn the page. And...

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,...

God’s Forgiveness – Paul the Apostle

In the book of Acts we read about the early Christians, churches, and missionaries. We read about all the persecution they faced and how God brought them through it all, sometimes in unexpected ways. One of these ways was by converting a persecutor. (Acts 9:1-22)...

A Few Things About Love

There are many, many things to say about love. I'm not going to try to put it all here, since that would be futile. Really, only God can say all there is to say and know about love, and humanity hasn't even begun to finish poring over what He's already shown us! But I...

Growing Old

I'm not about to tell you that I'm getting old. I'm definitely growing older, but whatever age "old" starts at, the general consensus is that it won't happen to me any time soon. But it will one day, so I've been paying attention to the people of maturity in my life....
