Love Your Enemies

16 Oct , 2019

But Jesus still showed up everyday. Jesus still encouraged, befriended and defended. It is the posture of a “true friend” to love no matter the offense or offender. We can learn a lot from the motives and actions of Jesus.

Labor Day Mind Dump

30 Aug , 2019

Your joy is vitally important as you walk out this faith-filled life that God has designed for you. Joy shapes the miracle that God will do and ushers the presence of the Lord. Never allow offense (rather merited or not) to steal your joy. If so, the offense of yesterday could cost you your miracle and allow you to miss what Jesus is doing today.

The Day I …

23 Aug , 2017

Tired but not knocked out It was a peaceful night outside… I laid in my bed at midnight listening to some worship music (Never Lost – Rita Springer & Catherine Mullins) on repeat. Anyone who truly knows me knows that I am a repeater – by accident and on purpose. This night, it was on purpose. I […]
