Walk by faith We know the Scriptures, but we’re not making them a part of our walk. We know them, but we don’t trust them. Therefore, fear takes over because it has no eyes of faith. A believer must walk by faith and not by sight. When we rely on our sight, we can’t see […]
Alone What if you looked up one day and realized that you were the only person in the whole world who believed the gospel, the single solitary soul that believed in God. The remaining seven billion people did not. How would you feel, what would or could you do? Everyone thinks you were a lunatic, […]
Job interview When I was interviewing for my first job right before getting married, I had an interesting interview. This was my fifth job application that day. A high school friend’s father owned a mortgage company in Nashville. And Joanne’s sister was working there. My interview started slowly with her boss, who turned me over […]

The way they should go Want a real challenge? Here goes. Raise your children to become what they were designed to be, not the way you think they should be. Look carefully at the verse. Train them in the way ‘they should go’. So many parents, especially dads, begin reliving their lives through their children. They start […]
Powerful voices Voices…range from soprano to bass in the world of music. I can’t sing well, so they have yet to identify my level. In church, I fall back on ‘making a joyful noise’. And rely on God’s grace. Speaking voices are all over the board. From soft to loud and in between. Some people […]
The unknown Sequestered but not silenced…is my feeling right now in this season of change in our world brought about by the infectious virus outbreak. Due to technology, we can be quarantined from the outside world and our families, but not disconnected from them. I send and receive numerous messages each day. The incoming messages are […]
