Demoralization is Part of the Game

If you are stressed about the destruction, deception, and depravity in the world, realize that demoralization is part of the devil's game, too. So, mind your reaction. Yes mourn, yes be angry, yes cry out to God, yes petition your government for a redress of grievances, but don't be cast down. There's a difference. 2 … Continue reading Demoralization is Part of the Game →

Suit Up, Walk it Out

"...put on heartfelt compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience, accepting one another and forgiving one another..." from Colossians 3:12-13 I might not be some of these things yet.

Transforming Where it Hurts

I think that a person can get addicted to religion just like alcohol, or over-eating, or shopping. Yes God does have all the answers... but there's a difference between the lengths you are going to, and the place He wants to meet you.  Is your current revelation transforming you, or is it just your latest … Continue reading Transforming Where it Hurts →

True Obedience

I wrote in Following the Spirit : Do not be self-absorbed in your in performance, but be present in love. This has been an important word for me lately, because the problem described here has been a chronic problem in my spiritual life.  Partially, this has to do with bridging the gap between what I … Continue reading True Obedience →

Show Me Your Glory

Recently, there was some Jesus Culture in the playlist at work. As Kim Walker-Smith sang "show me Your glory," my fiancè appeared from around the corner. The lesson was like God saying, "Do you want to worship me? Do it by loving this person I have put before you. Practically, to you, she is My … Continue reading Show Me Your Glory →

Before I Forget

I will probably be editing and adding things to this post very soon, but I wanted to start putting my thoughts out there regarding this question: What has changed in me since I have gotten into a healthy, committed, romantic relationship?

I was talking with a friend of mine about seeking God in the context of a romantic relationship. In the course of that, he told some of his story about the woman who is now his wife.

Someone Who Won’t Lead You Astray

What makes someone a good potential mate? The thought I arrived at recently was, 'someone who won't lead you astray'. The idea is that she is someone who, by engaging together, will cause you to be a truer version of yourself, and conversely, you will cause her to be a truer version of herself. She … Continue reading Someone Who Won’t Lead You Astray →
