Life Giving Weight
Yesterday I posted a reel about how I love when it rains. I do. I love the freshness. The replenishment. The washing. The filling. I love when it rains. I marvel at the miracle of rain. Science has identified that “Clouds hold millions of pounds of water because that water is spread out as trillions…

This Is Not the Plan That I Have for Your Life!
“When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he already had been in that condition a long time, He said to him, “Do you want to be made well?” John 5:6 NKJV I can relate to that paralyzed man laying beside the Pool of Bethesda for 38 years. Crippled. Watching others walk past him…

It May Look Different
There was a man who lived in the path of a coming hurricane. As others fled inland to higher ground, he boldly said “the Lord will take care of me.” As the waters reached his door, kind people came by and said get in our truck and we will take you to safety. The man…

The Fruits of a Regret Free Life
https://a.co/d/0baWqqzN “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control; against such things there is no law.” Galatians 5:22-23 I have had such beautiful response to my book, “What if You Choose to Life a Regret-Free Life.” Typically followed by surprise that the Fruits of the Spirit…

You left well, Dolly
There is a common saying that brings comfort to each of us who lose a loved one that says “Heaven gained.” I beg to differ and agree. I don’t believe any person leaving this World, who has a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, will be a ‘gain’ to God’s majestic Kingdom. I believe it…

King for a Moment
“And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul?” Mark 8:36 NLT The insidiousness of pornography. The evil that knows no bounds nor recognizes power, position or economic status. How is this possible, you ask? Jed York, the 46 year old owner of the San Francisco 49ers was…

How Long Will You Wait
I remember sitting in a conference room at a manufacturer in Shenzhen, China in 2002, making the comment, “we are seeing a trend in America,” to which the company’s representatives looked at each other as the translator delivered my words and chuckled with one another. When I asked why they chuckled, the General Manager replied…

I got ya.
We’re entering a time period where there is very real risk of the emergence of the most cynical generation(s) in history. We have witnessed truth become a possessive determiner of ‘my truth.’ The undeniable traits of gender and genetics now a political football. All for the purpose of manipulation for votes and misunderstood ‘power.’ Now,…

The surgeon should know the procedure before the operation.
Why am I such an encourager of reading the Bible and seeking understanding of applying this to my life, and you to your life? Because I was born with a sinful nature already abiding within me. Because I exist in a community comprised of equally broken and equally loved, sinful human beings. Because Satan wants…

When tomorrow doesn’t come.
“Myron, I went to bed a young man and woke up an old man.” “How do you know what your life will be like tomorrow? Your life is like the morning fog—it’s here a little while, then it’s gone.” James 4:14 NLT I have written these profoundly telling words that my dad said to me…
