Straining Forward

If there is one thing that I have learned, it’s that life is messy. I’ve spent the better part of this year wondering and questioning why things happen the way that they do, but it’s just life. Life lived by broken, messy sinners- All of us.

Back to My First Love

Revelation 2 warns us: "But I have this against you, that you have abandoned the love you had at first. Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent, and do the works you did at first. If not, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place, unless you repent" (v. 4-5, emphasis added).

How to Find Clarity

In my personal life, I have been faced with some difficult life questions lately. I keep finding myself asking the same one over, and over, and over: "How do I know?" How do I know if I am making the right choices, doing the right things, or going down the right path (besides the obvious answers, which I know and try my best to live by, of spending time in prayer and the Word)? I find myself trying to answer the questions with something a little more practical. And while there is no single, set answer, I do believe I have discovered the beginnings of a solution.
