To Vote or Not to Vote…
First of all, then, I urge that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgiving be offered for everyone— for kings and all those in authority—so that we may lead tranquil and quiet lives in all godliness and dignity. This is good and pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, who wants everyone to be saved and to come toContinue reading “To Vote or Not to Vote…”

Glory to God?
Recently, I came across this years-old devotional I’d written, and couldn’t help but think of those walking through knee-deep trials right now.

If that’s you – I am so sorry for what you’re walking through.Continue reading “Glory to God?”
My Story
We all have a story. No one is exempt from the difficulties of life. Some life stories are painful. Some seem unfair. Some feel hopeless. Some are filled with regret. None have escaped His notice.

A Testimony of “Through”
Following You is no guarantee of a problem-free life. Yes, I realize that’s an obvious point. But a point that I need reminded of, now and then. What you have promised is that You’ll stand beside me, that you’ll never leave me … never forsake me. And use all I walk through for Your glory.Continue reading “A Testimony of “Through””
