I Know Better

2619) Most things we do we know are wrong usually begin in our hearts as a rationalization. I know this is wrong but in this case; I have to do it. If we’re quiet in the moment we are contemplating doing the wrong thing or not doing the right thing; we stand at a fork

Groaning

2618) There are times in our lives when horrific things happen. It’s not something we like, but unfortunately, it can be a reality. As I reflect on this, I recall some situations that were so damaging and horrific that I have fallen on my knees and asked God to groan for me. What do I

Peace Interrupted

2617) One of the biggest blessings God has given his children is the perfect peace we can have within. John 14:27 and Isaiah 26:3. He gives it in assurance of salvation.

Sharpening vs. Destroying

2616) We humans weren’t meant to live alone; to walk through this life with no other human interaction.

Be Aware

2611) Where I live, we have a huge overpopulation of deer. Someone local told me as they drove a 3-mile circuit nearby, they saw 54. Because there are so many deer, as a driver, you have to be diligent or you’ll have a collision with these beautiful animals. My problem is, sometimes when I’m driving,

I’m Thirsty

2610) Have you ever been really thirsty? It seems odd to me, but the time I want a drink of water the most is right when I crawl into bed. I can feel the craving within, and I take a long drink from the water bottle I keep on my nightstand. Psalm 63:1 tells us
