A bad moment, a bad day, a bad week… it’s ok. It doesn’t define you. I almost thought about ending the post there. The reality is, that sums up the lesson you need to learn. But I suspect it wouldn’t be as impactful. If you have been super encouraged by the first sentence, great. IfContinue reading “Definition-You: not all the bad things you think.”

How many times will you do it wrong?
I have a love-hate relationship with garage door openers. Specifically the kind that Ford builds into their vehicles. If you own a Ford, you know what I’m talking about. It’s the three buttons that are virtually impossible to program. If you are one of those mavericks that never has problems getting these things to work,Continue reading “How many times will you do it wrong?”
Fakers unite!
Have you ever heard the phrase “fake it til you make it?” Yeah, we probably all have. Have you ever felt like all you were doing is faking it? Or maybe just making it up as you go? Does that make you feel less than? Like maybe you are an imposter trying to fake itContinue reading “Fakers unite!”
Be kind, rewind!
It’s been a bit since I have let anything post to the blog. There’s a reason for it. For any of you born after 2000, I’m going to use some terms related to a Video Cassette Recorder. That’s a device that plays these things called cassette tapes that were the predecessors to DVD, which proceededContinue reading “Be kind, rewind!”
Look at me…You are the captain now!
Do you ever feel completely inadequate? No, okay, stop reading. For the rest of us honest people, I’ll continue. That feeling of inadequacy can be rooted in a lot of different things. Sometimes it’s because you’re not trying. Other times it is because you’re overwhelmed and you just don’t have anything left to give. InContinue reading “Look at me…You are the captain now!”
This Means War
One of my favorite things in any action movie is the part where the hero(s) suit up and go into battle. There’s something exciting and cool about it. They are putting on their mechanical exoskeleton or their super powered armor that has weapons or shields built in. It has a cool look, makes them lookContinue reading “This Means War”
Open Your Eyes Already!
Today’s post really is a great post to talk about perspective. If you haven’t figured out by now, my posts are generally about the real struggles we face and how to point us back to the straight and narrow that we should be on. This muttering of words and thoughts is no different. I rememberContinue reading “Open Your Eyes Already!”
What have you got to lose?
Sometimes inaction leads to worse things than doing what you know is right. Sometimes doing the right thing feels like it would put you in grave danger. I would be remiss if I didn’t say this towards the front of this post. There IS a scriptural directive for all of us that profess faith inContinue reading “What have you got to lose?”
What’s your story?
I can still remember all the details about that day. It was war. The air raid sirens were going off. Buildings all around laid in disrepair. Bricks and windows smashed. Fires were smoldering in the ruins of what was a beautiful old city. Bombs were still falling from time to time, breaking the moments ofContinue reading “What’s your story?”
It’s called a God-Complex
(yes, I know the blog image is of Moses. Actually it’s Charlton Heston playing Moses. It just fit the imagery in my head, besides, do YOU have an actual real-life picture of God?) I like to fix things. It’s true. It’s almost like I seek out areas that need repair and try to get inContinue reading “It’s called a God-Complex”
