Life can often get a bit hazy… like a fog. Sometimes it gets so thick you just have to sit tight and wait for the fog to lift. In Exodus Israel followed God in the cloud. Maybe we should take a closer look at that. They moved when the cloud moved. They stayed put when the cloud [...]

The message of love permeates the world at this time every year. Can you hear it? Do you hear the message? Or are you lost in the packages, parties, and pressures? The message is this… God came to this world wrapped up in flesh. He is Emmanuel “God with us”. He lived and walked this [...]
I bet you only celebrate your birthday once a year! Me too. But not my kids… About 10 years ago or so Jacqueline started pointing out her 1/2 Birthdays. She would turn 4 then 4 1/2 then 5 next would be 5 1/2 and so on… Well, this was a big deal for her. So, [...]
Obedience: an act of love
Posted: October 11, 2008 in Catalyst, Conversation with God, Journaling, Love, Obedience, Oswald Chambers, PrayerThe following are some words I wrote down in my journal during Worship at Catalyst Day 2 – October 10, 2008: God, You are beautiful. I am limited with my words. I do not know how to truly express my love I have for You. I can’t find the words. The only way I can [...]
I don’t know what the latest and greatest material is these days… I can recall Gore-Tex being the material to wear when in the great outdoors. Colossians 3:12-17 tells us what is the best thing to be clothed in. It’s the one garment that has stood the test of time. It doesn’t fade or go out [...]

It’s all you can’t leave behind. (U2, “Walk On” Bono). I love the opening to the song “Walk On” by U2. I was listening to it today while burning up some of that cheap fuel I bought last Saturday!! The words just captivate my heart… it’s a captivity [...]
Walk On
Posted: September 7, 2008 in Forgiveness, Friends, Future, Inspiration, Love, Missions, Pray for the troops, Serving, U2I just watched Saving Pvt. Ryan – again! I cried – again! The sacrifice made by the WWII generation is something those of us who reap the benefit of freedom today will never be able to comprehend. I’m thankful to those who served then… I’m thankful for those who serve now! There have been so many lives given [...]
I’m overjoyed… I’m over taken with His love tonight. This love God has for me… for you… for them. The love he has to give leads us to respond, “Here am I. Send me!” To respond to His love any other way would be to deny Him. I am thankful God has seen fit to love me [...]
I’ve been talking about God’s love, knowing God, walking a road few dare to travel, being intimate with God, and going deeper. This past week has been around the metaphor of the ocean. God’s deep and wide limitless love. I want to learn to swim in this ocean of love. It’s Mother’s Day weekend. As I think [...]
