I could only imagine the day after Jesus' death. The sadness expressed in the faces of the disciples, His mother, Mary Magdalene and others. Yes, our human side sometimes takes over as it did with them. One thing is certain though, even the darkest nights are followed by a morning and oh what a glorious… Continue reading The Morning After

Good Friday
When I think of the sacrifice that Jesus made for me I can't help but breakout into tears. Words perhaps don't describe the full extent of His suffering, but one can only imagine the agony and pain He must've endured.

Please Don’t Leave My Side
I have a confession; I've failed, sinned and fallen more times than I can count. With each fall, I couldn't help but feel the burden of my sin like the weight of the world on my shoulders. I can relate to the Psalmist's prayer when he begs God toĀ keep him inĀ His presence and requestsĀ that the… Continue reading Please Don’t Leave My Side
