I like Psalms 13 because it reminds me of the moments when I've felt like God was just too busy for me. Verse 1 brings to mind some of my angry prayers..."O LORD, how long will you forget me? Forever? How long will you look the other way?" (Psalms 13:1 NLT). As the chapter evolves… Continue reading Angry Prayer

(Ephesians 4:26 NLT). Demonstrating love is challenging enough for me, so you could only imagine how much more difficult it… Continue reading Hate Them With Love

As a child, I always enjoyed our Saturday trips to Costco because that was the day when they had free samples. Samples are the BEST!!!! They allow us to taste/try something without any previous commitment. Sometimes samples can provide pleasant surprises. I find God to be such a gentleman. He doesn't want to force His… Continue reading Free Sample
