You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
At the end of Paul’s life, we don’t see a spotlight on himself, we see a list of names highlighting others. Quiet servants. Hidden helpers. Ordinary people who stayed faithful. In a world that celebrates fame, God honors faithfulness. (See 2 Timothy 4:19-22)
Nothing in this world can take your life until God permits. And nothing in this world can preserve your life unless God permits. Thus, let us learn to trust what God permits and let us find rest in knowing nothing can happen without His permission. "The earth is the Lord’s, and all its fullness, the world and those who dwell therein" (Psalm 24:1).
Hope in Christ. For all other people and places are hopeless. And when our hope is in Christ alone, we come to know this world is not our home. "To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory" (Colossians 1:27).
Worldly people will always be compliant with the ways of the world. Conversely, godly people will always be obedient to the ways of God. Thus, let us choose this day who we will obey! Obedience over compliance. "But Peter and the other apostles answered and said: “We ought to obey God rather than men" (Acts 5:29).
Those who behold heaven will be held by heaven. You see, when the mind is set on things above, the mind becomes settled by the King above. "Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth" (Colossians 3:2).
The answer to every prayer is "God's will be done." In other words, if you believe His will is always best, then it's easy to trust that He will answer your request. "Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven" (Matthew 6:10).
Seasons change, but God remains the same. People may be inconsistent, but God remains constant. He is the never-changing God in an ever-changing world. "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever" (Hebrews 13:8).
Christian, use your brain. I’m not talking to the world; I’m talking to true believers. Discernment isn’t just a spiritual gift; it’s a spiritual discipline. It’s forged through...
A Famous proverb states, “Pride comes before a fall.” You can be certain that every fall leaves you on the ground with a decision to make from that downward position. If you need a picture on pride to teach a lesson, use my failure and the ripple effect of pain it caused. My fall landed me in prison, but that...
I do not desire to forget, I desire for God. Had I not gone through tragedy, by my own doing, I would not be where I am today: broken but open. I would take back only one thing from my past, and that is the life that was taken due to my irresponsible decision to drink and drive—all else would remain. But sadly, even a life lost has been....
[Written from prison in 2012, but recently speaking about the upside-down-ness of the world got me thinking about this past blog and how it is only the love of God that can turn an upside down world right-side-up.] The Upside Down Kingdom of prison--where the hierarchy is an anarchy. It’s supposed to be under the law, but its decree is outlaw. Without law. The violent don’t even have to take it by force, it’s given by course. What was done outside the gates is what grants you access to the throne. Preceding acts of murder make one royalty and the lives taken are referred to as bodies. Crowns. The most ruthless citizens come into this Upside Down Kingdom by way of carnage and destruction; and by their...
I was a prisoner most of my young life. Confined to other's approval. In bondage to performance and accomplishment. And when I did not get the approval or perform according to accomplishment, the chains of 'doing' squeezed out the liberty of 'being.' And whether you do or don't, you're imprisoned by the....
