A Choice for Now

In my last post, Choosing Between Good Things, I mentioned I might have to put my blog on hiatus. I've decided that instead of a full stop, I'm going to post on it when I can instead of posting regularly. As for a few other choices going on in life, I've got those...

Choosing Between Good Things

I have things to plan and work for regarding the future, and to do so I must figure out what things to give up in the present, if only temporarily. I don't want to give things up. I feel like I shouldn't give up some of them. But I do need to at least consider doing...

Prospered for Giving

"God prospers me not to raise my standard of living, but to raise my standard of giving." - Randy Alcorn This quote is what sparked the post for today. We Christians often forget that we're stewards of God's resources, and He's the one who gets to tell us how to use...
