I think that for the most part, I am a ‘half-glass-full’ kind of person. Or as I like to call it – a “HOPE-filled” person. I truly want my life to reflect the Light of HOPE that guides me, comforts me, inspires me. I want the HOPE found in the promises of God to be the anchor for my soul [my mind, my will, my emotion]. But sometimes … Continue reading Lead me on
Here’s the thing about taking ‘a leap of faith’. In order for it to qualify as a ‘leap’, there has to be a period of time that you are in a free-fall of some sort or another. That exciting, but often very unnerving span of time between when you left Point A, but haven’t quite reached Point B. That is, assuming you even know where … Continue reading Leaping or Deeping, it’s all a test of faith!

As followers of Christ we are called put on the Armor of God and stand against the powers of darkness. I have written about this to some extent in … Continue reading Receiving Instruction (part 3)
I pray I am always honest with God, with myself, and with you – my reader. I never want to represent myself here as having figured out the answers to all of life’s questions, and/or be walking in constant victory over all manner of trials and temptations. Nor, I pray, shall I focus too much on the unanswerable questions of life. Why do we always feel this need to … Continue reading Receiving Instruction (part 2)

Sometimes you may have a full understanding of it, and immediately know what your response should be to that revelation. But other times it may be more akin to catching a glimpse of something out of the corner of your eye, or hearing a snippet of an instruction … Continue reading Receiving Instruction
