It feels to me as though our whole world is pining for truth and justice and an end to strife. We're not there yet, and won't be until Jesus comes again. In the meantime, this Christmas season brings us hope and a glimpse of what's to come.
It’s a different situation and time, but I have to reflect on brave words I’ve said in public.

In our dark world, I'm focusing on the Light. It is my only hope. It can be yours, too.
Just a reminder my book launch for my newest book--A Trustworthy Anchor: God's Hope & Encouragement in the Storms of Life--a forty-day devotional is one week from today!
My experience with grief has taught me that walking through that shadow is hard, but during the walk through the shadow, as the psalmist wrote: "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me," Psalm 23: 4, we are promised his presence.
When I'm affected with circumstances beyond my control, I go to the God of everything. The maker of the universe--and the storms of uncertainty.
If you haven't experienced grief, one day you will. You don't have to dread the day or somehow "prepare" yourself for loss, instead, build up your relationship with God.
The first time I read that passage, I was in a tough place in my first marriage.
I'm working on a new project. I believe it is something I can do and want to do. But sometimes, as I study my project, I am daunted by the task.
