The Prayer I Fought to Pray

Featured

In the darkness these words were a haunting challenge to me. A challenge of whether I was willing to let the Refiner free in my life.

The Veneer of Civility

Featured

The way it appears to me, is that the pandemic has created trauma in everyone and as a result the veneer of civility has been removed from all of us at once. All of our worst sides have been exposed at the same time.

Footprints Were Not Seen

Featured

Maybe I am even more amazed by what God didn’t allow me to do. How God didn’t let me serve where my heart wanted. How God closed ministry opportunities that I thought had finally arrived. All because He loved me enough to grow me into who I am now.

Final Thoughts on Humility (Part 8)

Featured

You are also tired, because if you are giving the impression that you have this whole life thing under control you don’t need help. Yet the truth is, is that you are struggling, but are too proud to ask for help

Thoughts on Humility (Part 7)

Featured

My pride kept me from sharing the forgiveness of Christ because I didn’t think I deserved the grace of God. I had lived too long thinking that since I did good things, God loved me. I got the grace of God because I earned it.

Thoughts on Humility (Part 6)

Featured

There is no place too sacred where pride cannot be found. As we seek humility, we have to be more aware of when pride comes. We don’t need to become complacent about seeking humility and guarding against pride.

May I never be satisfied with tainted service to Christ; service done with a proud heart. I want humility to be the heartbeat of my life.

Too much of my life have been filled with bursts of humility instead of a life lived in humility.
