Sometimes our days seem so ordinary, nothing special going on. Sometimes our days seem like a repeat………we get up, go to work, eat, sleep and then repeat the next day and then the next. OUR ORDINARY CAN BE FULL OF WONDER If we refuse to live out our days like they don’t matter, then they … More Oh THE WONDROUS ORDINARY
What do you do when you wake in the night? Do you worry or fret about the coming day or do you draw near to GOD and peacefully return to sleep? Our struggles may loom large in the middle of the night. Maybe because it is dark or maybe because it is a feeling of … More THE NIGHT WATCHMAN

Let’s all think about this today on this beautiful Sunday………where is our gaze? It’s up to us to not lose sight of our goal and the prize, JESUS CHRIST.

Who is on the throne of our lives? Who comes first? Because in GOD’S plan, it’s not about us, … More SELF-GLORY/GOD’S GLORY

Whenever this happens I figure satan isn’t happy with what I am saying here…….and so I press on. Forgive me that this is … More LET YOUR LIFE BE A GENUINE HOSANNA
There are glory days ahead. Just as the sun rises each day, spring is around the corner. And so is abundant life in CHRIST. It’s all HIS grace of course for each of us. Tough times in the past have caused me to discount those hard days I had. They were just something to get through … More SUNDAY REFLECTIONS
