My desire is to share my daily journey through the Word of God so that others can be inspired and encouraged to be all in for Jesus!
God takes me so many places as I read and study His Word, and I love to write about it. Maybe someone will read this and get their own message from God. Or maybe following my journey will give them a desire to start a journey of their own. I just hope that God will be glorified and that He will always be the main contributor to this blog!

Confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus is Lord! (Romans 10:9)
Celebrate the new you! (2 Corinthians 5:17)

Friendship
The Bible tells us to love our neighbor. (Matthew 22:39) But how does that translate into picking our friends? Knowing who we should spend time with? Who we should "hang out" with? Who should be our close companions? Our allies? Our associates? What does the Bible say about choosing our friends? We should be careful … Continue reading Friendship
Lord, you sustain me
Sometimes I feel like I'm drowning in the craziness of life. My arms are flailing about frantically as I try to keep my head above water. And there, right within my reach, is the ring buoy you tossed out to me. If I'd stop flailing my arms for just a moment I'd clearly see it. … Continue reading Lord, you sustain me
