Following His Path To Something Beautiful
I was sitting in the first 2 verses of Psalm 91 this week. That was where God had me, because everything else felt overwhelming. A lot of times my struggles feel like a battle. But this didn’t feel a battle. It felt like I was in a storm. And it felt like the storm came [...]
Does anyone like FaceBook memories? Today I was reminded of a few significant events over the past 9 years, and 11 months. And today, I'm remembering God is God. He is good, and He is faithful. But 9 years and 11 months, that is how long I have been in my 30's. The day I [...]
Why should I follow Jesus? I can tell you a ton of reasons that you shouldn't. But I share with you today on Candidly Christian 4 reasons not to follow Jesus. And they probably aren't what you would think! It is always ironic when I write these posts 2 months before they are actually posted. [...]

Sometimes you wonder if what you went through was really as bad as it seemed at the time, and that comment confirmed that, yes, the storm we had just went through was as bad as it seemed.
