Giants — Everywhere!
I know how it feels when my circumstances are looming over me like a hulking, colossal GIANT who is fierce, beyond my capability. He is throwing every negative word of doubt and unbelief imaginable my way. He is taunting, harassing, smack-talking and my faith is challenged like crazy. Maybe that sounds like some things you’re…
Stop Drop and Pray
Help! I really didn’t realize how old I was until I was on the ground and found it difficult to launch upward! That sounds funny, but it is true for many of us in our golden years. So, what do we do to get back up? We learn good techniques and practice them. And there…
Behaving Ourselves
I watched a young man checking his items out at a store. He scanned each item then I saw him slip another item with it and didn’t scan that item. I wanted to say, “Behave yourself”, but didn’t. However, I did get a fresh, new blog from the scene. “Behave yourself!” Isn’t that something you…
Are Your Giants Too Much to Handle?
I’ve been there. I know how it feels when my circumstances are looming over me like a hulking, colossal GIANT who is fierce, beyond my capability and he is throwing every negative word of doubt and unbelief imaginable my way. He is taunting, harassing, smack talking and my faith is challenged like crazy. Maybe that…
Are We Behaving Wisely?
Typically, we use the word, misbehaving, when it comes to the way our children act up. But, I’m sure you will agree that we have been inundated with “misbehaving” adults lately, particularly in the political arena. But, that’s them, what about us? We faith-talking, Bible-toting, cross-wearing, Christ-following people are being watched by those in our…
This is Crazy! This is Awesome!
I enjoy reading Bible stories that start out “This is crazy” but end up “This is awesome”. For example, a little shepherd boy with a mere sling and stones, going up against a giant Philistine — wearing the toughest, rock-solid armor ever must have been a “This is crazy” moment, but we know how it…
A Lion, A Bear, A Big Dude = Promotion
A couple of days ago, I shared about young David and his ability to withstand the taunts and threats of the giant, but all it took was confidence and knowing who he was as God’s representative (That giant was messing with the wrong guy!), and he took down that giant in one fell swoop! That…
Integrity Matters So Are You Behaving or Misbehaving?
I’m reading through the Bible this year and reading about those people that got themselves into some really crazy situations, has sparked my interest like never before. I’m having so many “aha” moments in my readings. Take for example, King Saul and David. Remember the story of the “little” shepherd boy, David, and how he…
A Bear, A Lion and a Big Dude
I posted about David and his giant, yesterdayt! Just wanted to add….a P.S. to that post! David DID win that epic battle with Goliath, but God had prepared him in the trenches, in the “small” things. David was faithful to fulfill his responsibilities. David did anything God asked him to do. When he faced the…
TRUST GOD!
Day 70 of Photo Inspirations — TRUST GOD Enroute to Dallas yesterday, I saw a man joyfully dancing down the street and waving a sign that said, “TRUST GOD” on it. This isn’t the photo. I wish I could have gotten it because I would visually be able to show his unabandoned joy to…
