Fear-less New Year…
Fear is a companion, but not a welcome one. Fear, worry, doubt, dread – words that don’t cheer us but at times are apt descriptions of where we’re living. Ever noticed fear is often accompanied by comparison? Her kids don’t have the issues my kids… Continue Reading “Fear-less New Year…”
Life, Liberty…
Regardless of the outcome of today’s election in America, there is only One who is in control. As a people we are where we are mostly out of neglect. Neglecting to incline our hearts to a God who is sovereign over every nation. “For… Continue Reading “Life, Liberty…”
Sure Thing…
These days uncertainty greets as our feet hit the floor. Weather, work, politics, violence, money, health, loved ones – nothing is sure anymore. Still, we are all looking for a sure thing – even as we reach out it seems to slip from… Continue Reading “Sure Thing…”

Crown Me…

Mason Jars…
