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,...

To Obey Is Better Than Sacrifice

While reading in my Bible yesterday I came across Jeremiah 7:21-23, and, while God is talking to the children of Israel, it essentially says that God doesn't want your sacrifices and rituals, He wants you to obey His voice. This reminded me of other instances in the...

Personal Relationship

God is omnipresent, and if you are a child of His then He is not only next to you, He is inside you. God is not a long distance God; He literally lives with you! But sometimes we don't even acknowledge God is there as we walk through our day. We don't even acknowledge...
