What do you want?
It’s a powerful question that I often ask people when meeting with them. Almost every time the question is followed by silence, that at times becomes uncomfortable. The truth is many of us are going through the motions and too often, the emotions of a life without direction, goals or sadly, purpose. The great speaker…

“Your mother will be alright.”
I don’t know why I feel compelled to write this today but I do. I sense there is someone in my small sphere of connection who needs to hear the affirming words that ‘someone they love will be alright.’ You see, I was 36 years old and at the professional pinnacle that I had pursued…

Squirrels
My family gave me a squirrel-proof bird feeder that has proven to be very accommodating to the squirrels. The “protective” wire that houses the seed holder gives them a nice foothold as they devour the seeds meant for the many beautiful birds that inhabit this area. Squirrels! There is an interesting dynamic as I observe…

Stay with me here.
Consider that the resentment, bitterness or just outright jealousy that may be aimed at you may have a purpose beyond what you can see. Most of us know the story of Moses. A Hebrew boy, saved by Pharaoh’s daughter, raised in privilege as an Egyptian (because he was adopted by Pharaoh’s daughter). Confused by his…

It’s likley not if you are ready. Rather, will you accept?
“Who is a God like You, who forgives wickedness And passes over the rebellious acts of the remnant of His possession? He does not retain His anger forever, Because He [constantly] delights in mercy and lovingkindness.” Micah 7:18 (AMP) In 2026, commit to approach the newness of the year with the refreshing that comes from…

A they shall remain nameless…
I am preparing the construct of a new book and was reading today about the two spies that Joshua sent in to explore the promised land, “especially Jericho.” Two men that we must assume were men of absolute integrity, incredible bravery, trustworthy to protect the entire nation of Israel and yet, nameless. Joshua 2. We…
