Day to Day with Jesus

The festive season is already upon us and there always seems to be an unconscious gravitation towards celebrations, movement, and gatherings. There is always a party to attend, a wedding, a trip to take, or a celebration of some sort; late-night experiences became the norm followed by groggy mornings. Time seems to go twice as…

Tickets were bought. Trains, buses, and airplanes were boarded. Tables were set. …….and families reunited and gathered around to celebrate. This presents a sequence of events this past week. It’s Thanksgiving across the world and while some nations (like ours) have not laid great emphasis or given meaning to it, there’s still a part of…

All the things I thought I wanted to know ended up being the things I realized I shouldn’t have known. Yet I wonder why I still get caught up in the cycle of striving, and why I am constantly immersed in fact-finding, angle-checking, and data-proofing, all in an attempt to insulate myself from being blindsided….

There’s something about getting ready on Sunday morning that floods me with joy. I love the worship, the word, and the family time…

I got into a fight yesterday. Waking up that morning, there was no sign whatsoever to indicate that the day would end as it did. It was a bright and beautiful day, full of hope, and the promise of a brilliant future. The sky was clear, and the wind whistled gently, as it carried the…

Reading Proverbs 3:3 is an automatic invitation to sing Todd Dulaney’s song (Tablet of your heart) The wise instruction from a Father to his son dictates “Let not mercy and truth forsake you.
