Music is like a visit from an old familiar friend; Reminding me of who I am and of who God is. Especially when I feel like I am...

“The heavens are telling of the glory of God”; (Psalm 19:1). Imagine all those wonderful stars shining so brightly on a dark night. The vastness of the galaxies. The planets in their orbit light years away. “Heavens” plural. 2 Corinthians 12:2 speaks of Paul being caught up into the third heaven. Every time man makes a new discovery about the universe it is only a mere scratch on the surface compared to all that God has made in the heavens. Yet what we can see and do know

In the quiet walls of His refuge. Where the storms bow to His strength. This haven built by Holy hands   with walls of grace and gates of peace Is where our souls find rest. “The Lord also will be a stronghold for the oppressed, A stronghold in times of trouble; And those who know Your name will put their trust in You For You, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You.”   (Psalm 9:9-10). The promises from these verses keep coming back to me, how “The LORD will be a strong

This King who sang his faith with a heart that leaned on Heaven knew where faith rises giants fall. David had so many things he had to trust the Lord in.   Like a seasoned veteran who has experienced numerous challenges, and weathered countless storms.   His faith had deepened and developed overtime, and his trust had increased.   The words he spoke and the prayers he said, have a greater impact because they do not come from a shallow place, sounding empty or hollow, but from

Have you ever felt like you wish you could just run away? Or unzip yourself and escape from your own failing body? Maybe you’ve had...

Do you ever feel like your life is like living in a basement, and you keep looking for the trap door to find your way out? Like your...

MY father’s shoes beaten and worn tell the story of a humble, kind-hearted man. Both have walked a lot of miles, and seen a lot of places upon this earth; and the character of both has truly lasted. His shoes like a companion; both of them taking each step together… have weathered the storms and seasons of life, enduring through the good and the bad; and have served their purpose well. Each maintaining their integrity; helping to touch hearts, and change lives along the way.

How long, O Lord? Have you ever felt this way? I know I have. David says it 4 times In the first two verses of Psalm 13. He asks How long, O Lord? Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me? How long shall I take counsel in my soul, Having sorrow in my heart all the day? How long will my enemy (win)… be exalted over me? You can sense, feel, (almost reach out and touch) David’s overwhelming feelings of deep discouragement and aloneness; you can hear

Sometimes I am so taken back by His love, so overwhelmed and amazed, I just sit in awe that He could care this much for me . As you read this, I pray that you might take a moment to allow these words to wash over you and speak into your heart of God’s incredibly deep love for you personally. May you hear His gentle whisper inviting you to draw nearer and rest in Him. May He speak hope and encouragement into your weary heart and soul and remind you of all that you have in Him.

"You have taken account of my wanderings; Put my tears in Your bottle. Are they not in Your book?" (Psalms 56:8) "He knows the way I take." ( Job 23:10) “Stop the world, I want to get off now,” I would occasionally hear my mother say. Life can be incredibly hard when we are hurting, lonely, or grieving. Things seem to travel at the speed of light and come at us whether we are ready for them or not, while healing is painfully slow. The holidays can feel more like a punch in
