Stay True to Your Word: Put Away Hypocrisy

Not all of my messages are uplifting. I would like them to be, but most are teaching and usually what brings the hard lessons so a difficult life can be spared from you. It’s a dirty job. You know the rest, “someone has to do it”. The first lesson in the Bible is about hypocrisy;Continue reading “Stay True to Your Word: Put Away Hypocrisy”

You See In Others What YOU Choose to See: A Reflection of Your “Self”

Truth: Everyone, I mean, EVERYONE has good things about them and not so great things. We all struggle with the SAME condition. It’s called being HUMAN. If this were not true we could all pack up and just go home. Our mission would be done. But, our mission is not done. We are not perfect,Continue reading “You See In Others What YOU Choose to See: A Reflection of Your “Self””

What Defines You?

The question my title presents is much more important than you might think. We tend to become what our minds believe we are. Sometimes it feels like a true battlefield. Our minds might insist one thing when we want it to believe something else. Our belief is tested when someone accuses us of being somethingContinue reading “What Defines You?”

Characteristics of Love: Love is Not Self-Seeking

Not being self seeking can be confusing at first. On one hand we can not give of anything until we have it within ourselves.

Sometimes We Just Need to Be Heard

I began this blog a bit more than 4 years ago. It was because expression, communication, and my voice are always my strong place. I might seem unassuming to those who first meet me but don’t mistake my quiet presentation at first glance, as one of a shy demeanor. I’ve learned there are moments toContinue reading “Sometimes We Just Need to Be Heard”

Do You Live According to Other’s Expectations?

Expectations from others are hard to keep up with. Everyone has a different opinion of who or what we might be. This is hard for those who are people pleasing types. It can cause our thoughts to go one way, and then the next, creating a great deal of confusion on our life’s journey. WhatContinue reading “Do You Live According to Other’s Expectations?”

Do You Know the Difference Between Listening and Hearing?

Living in a world filled with noise and distraction, its hard to remember to listen when we need to; but do we really hear? There is a huge difference between listening and hearing.

Hearing is listening but also adding the heart, compassion, understanding,Continue reading “Do You Know the Difference Between Listening and Hearing?”

Don’t Cause Your Brother, or Another to Stumble

It’s not uncommon for me to get more than one message in a day. When I Pastored my churches I often had more messages lined up than I could give at one time!
