{ between two rocks }
“And between the passages, by which Jonathan sought to go over unto the Philistines’ garrison, there was a sharp rock on the one side, and a sharp rock on the other side;… And Jonathan said to the young man that bare his armour, Come, and let us go over…: it may be that the Lord… Continue reading { between two rocks }
{ surrender is hard }
I’ve heard so many times over the years that following Christ is hard. And it’s true to an extent. When you surrender your life to Christ, or you set out to expel some sinful habit, the devil and the world WILL pose a threat. You need to be aware of that, but don’t focus on… Continue reading { surrender is hard }
{ remember }
I’ve been really pondering the story of Peter walking on the water and have been amazed at how many applications the Lord has given me. Today, I want to chat a second about all that Peter forgot.

As 2015 is coming to a close (I can’t believe I’m even saying that), it’s time to sit down and evaluate how the year went and what we would like… Continue reading { resolutions? }
{ noah }
They stood there quietly. A few with heads bowed low, swaying from side to side, clinging to each other. Frightened. A hush fell over the huddled little family. Even the animals felt the intensity of the moment. The crowds that had gathered near the door – drawn by the sight of animals coming in pairs… Continue reading { noah }
{book: a praying life}
I don’t know about you, but prayer does not come easy for me! My mind is constantly on overdrive thinking of everything under the sun, so to actually sit down and try and focus my heart and mind on prayer is more than difficult! One of my mentors shared this book with me a few… Continue reading {book: a praying life}
