If I proclaim the greatness of God it is hard to elevate myself. If I speak of the works and majesty of God it is hard to speak of myself.
I will give to the Lord the thanks due to his righteousness, and I will sing praise to the name of the Lord, the [...]
I was relistening to a message yesterday on my way to work. In short the message is about being uncomfortable and using the gifts God has given you. It is an amazing message and like I said I was driven to listen to it a second time which will probably turn into a third and [...]
For the last week, Shaun Groves has been in Kenya with other various bloggers documenting and sharing how Compassion International is serving and rescuing the people of Kenya. When I say people I mean more than just the children that are sponsored through Compassion. The sponsorship of these children changes their entire family’s lives.

This morning on my way to work I decided to kick it old school. Soon Passion’s album Better is One Day was filling the four walls of my car at a loud volume. I sang along to a few songs and skipped ahead to the title track – Better is One Day – my favorite [...]
I was at a doctor’s appointment today and was dealing with some internal discontentedness while I waited to be seen. The good thing was I recognized I was being discontent and immediately started praying that God would give me peace and take away the discontentment.
