Stooping Down

I am currently watching a television show with an arrogant character. I find myself getting frustrated by the arrogance, the snooty-ness of the character. As I easily notice this dreadful trait in this man, I am sadly reminded of my own arrogance. It is amazing how we are all so capable of arrogance but we … Continue reading Stooping Down →

True Value

Today I found myself trying to remember a time when we didn’t have Facebook or Instagram. It feels like we have always had these social media companies in our lives. As I scroll through my feed, I see so many photos of people, food, home decor, children, pets, vacations, etc. There is always the line … Continue reading True Value →

Precious to Me

Everyone has something that they deem as precious. Parents see their children as precious. Some people are amazed by different pieces of art and would deem the pieces to be precious. We have precious items behind glass, locked up in a safe, or even placed in museums. Each person has a different opinion as to … Continue reading Precious to Me →

Lesser Pearls

I love the Parable of the Pearl of Great Value. The parable says, “The kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls, who, on finding one pearl of great value, went and sold all that he had and bought it” (v. 45-26 ESV). He sold ALL HE HAD to buy it. … Continue reading Lesser Pearls →

God’s Somebody

Have you ever been called a “nobody”? In this world we spend many hours trying to show people that we are somebody, that we are important, that we mean something. There are books written about how to turn your life around and go from a nobody to a somebody. There are lectures and programs built … Continue reading God’s Somebody →

Love That Lasts

It is so easy to get caught up in a routine. Even with our relationship with God, we can get into a routine. In time we might even start to consider the fulfillment of this weekly routine as what matters. Well I attended the elder meeting and I made it to the prayer meeting. Well … Continue reading Love That Lasts →

Taken Seriously

There is a lot of time and energy being spent in the world today just to be taken seriously. People feel like they must fight for attention. Advertising has become more bold and outrageous than ever. It is hard to get people to pay attention. Celebrities do wild stunts. We post odd status updates to … Continue reading Taken Seriously →

You Are Irreplaceable

When my friend came to me to take over at my work area, she said she was going to replace me. I told her that I was irreplaceable. She first took it as me joking that I was too good for her to take over where I was located; however, I said it again. I … Continue reading You Are Irreplaceable →

Gathering of Many

When I was walking my dog this morning, there were tons of ants gathering together on the sidewalk. My dog Max decided to walk around the ants in an awkward way to be sure to avoid them all. It was quite humorous to see a 75 pound dog trying to avoid the tiny ants, but … Continue reading Gathering of Many →

Dirty Hands

“Behold, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are continually before me.” – Isaiah 49:16 [ESV] Although I was told time and time again to not write on my hand, I continue to write things on my left hand so I do not forget what is important. As I was … Continue reading Dirty Hands →
