Waiting on God
I guess if the only criteria for getting into heaven were waiting on God, I may be lacking. Like most people in today's world, I like to get what I want quickly. We are in an Amazon world…order today and get tomorrow. But God does not work that way. My first...
Comfortable in the Silence
There are seasons in life when God seems quiet. We pray, but we don't hear an answer. We search His Word, but nothing seems to jump off the page. We ask, "Lord, where are You?" and the silence can feel almost unbearable. But what if the silence isn't a sign that God...

Looking Back, Living Now, Leaning Forward
Today, July 9th, 2026, is my birthday! This has been a much-anticipated birthday for me all year because I have transitioned from one decade to another. I call it the "Big One." The Bible states that the days of our years are three score years and ten, and if, by...
