Many things in life are "easier said than done", loving your enemies is one of those things. So, here is my attempt at practicing what I preach: To whom it may concern, To those who I can't stand and those who can't stand me. To the people who I've offended and those that have offended me. To… Continue reading Dear Enemy

As a child, I recall praying when I was in trouble or had a major test. If God had caller ID, He would've seen my number repeatedly. The problem is I can't recall thanking Him as much as I ask, which is an issue because He always gives more than requested. In today's passage, Jesus healed… Continue reading 1 out of 10
Who’s the Judge?

Anyone can have faith when times are good, but it takes true conviction to say like Micah "...I will rise again..." Get ready… Continue reading Epic Comeback
The Process of Healing
I remember begging God during my darkest moments to heal my heart instantly, but I've learned that although He may have the power to do so, it's not always the approach He takes. In today's passage, the lepers could've been cured on the spot, but instead they were healed in the process of going to… Continue reading The Process of Healing

It's not uncommon to see people praying when times get tough, but what about when all is well? Jonah ran away from God and only called out to Him once he had been swallowed up by a fish. Let's not wait until our problems and situations swallow us up in order to turn to God.… Continue reading Swallowed Up
