Lately I have been pondering the layout of my life and the balance of what I get verses what I give. Sometimes people tend to focus on what they’re not getting in this life, what they are not making financially, those trips they are not taking, or the promotions they are not receiving. It canContinue reading “Giving & Getting”

My ‘Un-Retirement’ Plan
As I write this blog today, my heart is broken for those who have worked so hard throughout their lives and careers, who have planned well for their retirement; and yet, the very thing that they need the most, many do not have; an eternal life un-retirement plan. Too many unsaved people think that thisContinue reading “My ‘Un-Retirement’ Plan”
Homesick for Heaven
I was thinking about making this blog title in the form of a question, but I decided to make a statement of fact because this is how I am feeling right about now. I wasn’t much of a home body growing up because home wasn’t that comfortable for me; which was probably a good thing. Continue reading “Homesick for Heaven”

They were fighting to protect their homeland and yet, they longed to be home, enjoying the many blessings associated with it. While this could relate to just aboutContinue reading “Letters from the Front”
High-Watch Blues
My friend Tom Cote from Watchman River You Tube Channel mentioned the ‘high watch blues’ a few times in some of his recent vlogs. Not every watcher has the spiritual or emotional capacity to endure a high watch season and come out the other side, still ‘on this side’ as it were. If you canContinue reading “High-Watch Blues”

The Art of Self Forgiveness & Self-Forgetfulness
I was reading in my devotional by Sara Young entitled Jesus Always – Embracing Joy in His Presence Sister Young writes her devos as if Jesus is the person who is talking. Some excepts of this particular devo is as follows: “…you need to learn the art of self-forgetfulness. You were not designed to stayContinue reading “The Art of Self Forgiveness & Self-Forgetfulness”
The Lord’s Day
I was thinking about the phrase, ‘the Lord’s Day,’ in correlation to the Return of Christ. The Lord’s Day should not be confused with ‘the Day of the Lord.’ The Lords’s Day is Sunday, the Day of the Lord is the seven-year tribulation, which can include the Rapture on the front side and the MillennialContinue reading “The Lord’s Day”
