Help Me Find It

April 16, 2018 / / 0 Comments

Ever have one of those throw in the towel kind of days? One of those days when you are just done with it all? Every once in a while the weight of the world seems just a little too heavy and all you want to do is crawl back in bed and just sleep it all away. Or perhaps you’re not the sleep it all away kind of person, but you’re just tired of fighting. Either way this week’s Music Monday is a song you really need to sit down for and listen to closely. There’s even a link to the lyrics at the bottom of this post so you can take them all in.  Continue reading

To The Dreamers

April 9, 2018 / / 0 Comments

I’ve been blessed with some pretty good eyesight. As a matter of fact my eye doctor has instructed me that I don’t even need to come every year. But not everyone has the same eye condition. As a matter of fact, I’m the only one in my house that doesn’t need glasses for one reason or another. As we think about eyes, I’m reminded of a condition known as nearsightedness.

I like being strong and in control. I like to know what’s coming and handle issues before they become problems. I have broad shoulders and I love to carry other people’s burdens. It’s what I do. It’s who I am. It’s the person God made me to be. Some call it compassion and well that’s true, but I don’t just feel other’s pain I try to prevent it. But if I’m being honest, I can’t fix every problem. I can’t prevent everyone’s pain. And sometimes even the strongest person needs a shoulder.  Continue reading

Arise My Love

Have you ever listened to the same song over and over again without ever getting tired of it? I’m sure if you heard that same song on repeat for twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week you would eventually want to listen to a new song. Just the other weekend I had the opportunity to go to the annual Christian concert, Winter Jam, with friends from church. I’ve been for six or seven years in a row and every year a band called Newsong sings the same song. Continue reading
