True Repentance
This article, by Doug Wendel, spoke to me so severely some time ago, that I felt he and I were sitting in some quiet coffee shop downtown speaking face-to-face. He is so adamant about what true repentance should look like that I had to share it with you who are dealing with the reality of […]
The Love of God
Does the love of God grip you so tightly that all your thoughts and actions are overruled by him? Does his love constrain you like it constrained the apostle, Paul? Does the feeling compel or pull you to do whatever God asks? Is it as restricting to you as that? What does this kind of […]
Pray For Me
A friend recently asked me to pray for her. She is living in a way that is, what I dare say, reprehensible to her savior, the Lord, Jesus Christ. She knows that her chosen lifestyle is wrong and is not good for anyone involved, yet she continues in it only asking that I pray for […]
But I Want It…
Desire. The pull is so strong at times, isn’t it? I want __________________. You fill in the blank. Besides a God-honoring companion, potato chips would be written in my blank. Lays, Lightly Salted. If it’s late and my desire to crunch is putting up its dukes, if the bag’s empty, and if the drug store […]
Where Did It All Go Wrong?
I was reading an article in the Daily Mail online news about a Hollywood couple whose 7-year engagement produced a sad finale.

Ready or Not…
The countdown in a game of Hide-and-Seek can produce panic for the hiders, but the seeker, on the other hand, has all control regarding the speed of the count; it really all depends on the seeker. If he counts, the game begins. Does the phrase, Ready or not; here I come, bring back memories? The seeker […]
I Want to Love Like That
The way God loves is perfect. It’s how I want to love others. Is that even possible? After all, I am only human. But I can certainly try. Then I argue with myself that if I were truly born again, I wouldn’t have to try. If the Spirit of God is truly living in me, it’s […]
