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 Job, Not Yours

It seems to me that I keep bringing this up. Maybe it's because I need to hear it. But there are certain things that are God's job and NOT yours or mine. Specifically for this discussion, only God can change a heart and mind. Only God can save a soul and revive a...

God Controls Change

Yesterday my church had a send-off fellowship for a man and his family. While he, his wife, and their children are greatly loved and appreciated here, God has called him to serve in a different church. This man and his wife are leaving some important positions open...
