Been re-reading the book of Judges as of Sunday night. I love this book. A thought hit me while reading the introduction to this book in my Bible. Every generation needs a hero to start a revolution, and God often sends the hero that nobody wants to do what no one expects. Gideon and Samson [...]

It’s a Great Day To Be Alive
A few thoughts from today: Life will kick you in the pants, but my God kicks harder. That’s right! My God is MY God. I believe when I finally get to ask the Apostle Paul how cool it was living during the early church that he’ll ask me how cool it was to live during [...]
Thoughts On Working Long Hours
Last week, I quickly posted my thoughts on working long days. Lately, my job (my “real” job) has me and my co-workers working upwards to twelve hours per day including weekends. Through all of this working two thoughts have come to mind: I have a new-found respect for men/women who work these long hours on [...]
Long Days
I really do despise long days. What I mean by “long” is the days that I spend long hours doing something that’s mentally and/or physically draining. Yesterday was a long day. Today is expected to be one, too. In fact, this entire week is planned to be long. But at the end of these long [...]
17,030 Days Left
I read on Facebook earlier that a person in the U.S. lives an average of 27,375 days. I’m not sure if this number is correct, but simple math proves that a person would live approximately 70-75 years. So, even if it isn’t correct, it’s probably close. This got me thinking: how many days have I [...]
Something Old or Something New
Something to think about before the end of the work week. At our churches, we are always looking to do something new. Are we really doing something new or are we doing something old and claiming it as new? Just a thought. What’s your take?
When To Fix a Problem
So true! Makes me wonder why we (and I mean WE for our own individual lives) rationalize a problem away instead of eliminating it when it is recognized. What’s your take?
Then God
Two words stuck out to me this morning reading Genesis 1. They were “Then God,” and I read them in verse 3. Here’s verses 2-3a, “The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. Then [...]
What’s My Motivation?
While driving to work this morning a revealing question popped into my head: “What’s my motivation?” In other words, why do I do the things that I do? What inspires me to accomplish a task? What gets me up in the morning? Why do I go to work? To church? To anywhere? Here’s the way [...]
Looking Back 28 Years
On this month, day, minute and even day of the week 28 years ago, I came into existence. Yep. It was Saturday, March 6, 1982. My birth date. 1:22 P.M. My birth time. The point in time when God revealed me to the world in full glory. Then, He sat back, looked at me, and [...]
