Have you ever took up your life, forgone the seatbelt and purposely crashed into a wall? Metaphorically speaking. …I believe we all have at times. You see, unwise decisions and habitual sin lead to devastation. Injury. Death. And, I have done it myself, speeding along at my will, wrecking my life, and all the whileContinueContinue reading “3 am thoughts”

I wonder….what if we actually held the sign of ourContinueContinue reading “Despite All Things, Redeemed”

Sow in me righteousness, Reap in me steadfast love, Break in me fallowed land It is time to seek You, Lord… Come like the rain, Your goodness pouring down.
