Twas the night after Christmas, and all through the house, was a clutter as if giants, had wrestled a mouse. That AM I awoke, a hot shower to take, but out of the faucet, no steam it did make. Down to the basement, I trekked with a grumble, checking for flames, under the tank with [...]

If you need some adventure in your life, The Summit by Eric Alexander has just that for you! Eric chronicles his journeys up the highest peaks in the wold, as he escorts others with disabilities, even leading the first blind man to the top of Everest. I was greatly encouraged to read Eric’s thoughts and [...]
I’ll Gladly Pay You Tuesday…
Oct 22
For a hamburger today…(Did I just date myself?) OK, so, I read an article just the other day about a person who had a McDonald’s Happy Meal hamburger on their counter for 6 months and it turned to ‘stone’. Well, of course I thought to myself “I have to try that!”, I mean, who wouldn’t?! [...]
Dear Future Me
Sep 30
Dear Future Me, Do you remember me? Do you remember where you were 5 years ago? I am curious to know where you are now? Did you follow your dreams? Are you a counselor? Is it what you expected? Have you found Life, or more of it yet? Wherever you are, don’t give up! It [...]
I Wish I Had Known…
Aug 31
Today Randy Elrod* posted a new blog titled “The Persons I Wish I Had Known“. No real spiritual significance, or profound insight, just a post about a couple people he and his friends would like to meet. He ends the blog with this question; Who is a person you would wish to have known? When [...]
Sin…
Aug 29
…translated from the ancient Greek means to miss the mark, as an archer who misses the target… “Miss the Mark”. When I think about that, and my life, I think of all the things I do that “Miss the Mark”. I’ve realized that those things are me trying to quench the desire for God in [...]
The Prodigal…
Mar 15
We have all heard countless sermons preached on the story of the Prodigal Son. Focusing on topics from the son’s rebellious and disregard for his father’s authority, to a selfish and immature attitude, to his drastically sinful nature and life. The older brother doesn’t get talked about too often. Yet, when we do hear about [...]
Get out of the Boat!
Feb 22
Somehow through someone I am connected with via Facebook I happened on to this ‘note’. I’ve never met the person who wrote this, but feel like I know him. This is an echo of my heart and am glad there is someone else out there who ‘gets this’. I am posting this with his permission… [...]
I just finished Randy Elrod’s book “Sex, Lies & Religion”. It is one of the most refreshing books I have read in a long time. If you struggle with the physical act or the topic of ‘Sex’, this book is for you. I have been a Christian for 19 years, five years ago I fell [...]
Good Samaritan…
Feb 5
I wonder how the story would have went if the good Samaritan would have given the robbed guy a business card for his church and said “Come to this place on Sunday, and you’re sure to find healing and comfort.” Or better yet, something I personally heard before, ”Come to this place on Sunday, and [...]
Thought for the day…
Jan 25
If I know who I am in God’s eyes and His love for me, then your words won’t hurt me. And if I love you, like God loves you, then my words won’t hurt you.
God is Love…

I just love this song! I hope it encourages you this new year… This new decade!How has God shown His love to you recently?
Merry Christmas!
Dec 24
I have been thinking for weeks now, how I do not want this Christmas time to be filled with empty religious activities, to fly by and leave me wanting more. I want more then presents. More then the rituals that take place year after year after year. Love entered the world 2000 years ago or [...]
