I read the episode and still chuckle. Jesus and his disciples in a boat. His disciples include hardened fishermen who know a thing or two about life on the waves. So when they freak out at a storm that threatens their lives, you must know it’s serious things. Where’s Jesus in all the hullabaloo? Having […]
Read More Serenity in the StormYou couldn’t just write something that someone else wrote and pass it as your own. You had to make sure it was referenced properly. This idea, these words came from this author. This is the source. When I say I am His, I make reference not just to whom I belong, I essentially say Jesus […]
Read More I Am His: Statement of ReferenceIt doesn’t matter how much the declaration is made of being self-determined, independent and autonomous, there is to a degree something or someone that owns us, we give our lives over to it or the someone, they hold us I their thrall. I wonder who or what you belong to. For His Name’s SakeShalomC. L. […]
Read More A Matter of OwnershipBack at the beginning of this month, I mentioned what a fan I am of November. As the month reaches its close I am still a big admirer of the month.

I am not really a technical person, so when it comes to the technicalities of the stages of development that brings human beings into the world, it’s still a marvel to me. Indeed I was checking out the brilliant YouTube channel Crash Course […]
Read More Thank God for … ChildbirthThere’s no need to think about there being a reason for everything. I think getting hung up on the reason for anything and everything distracts from the things that matter. Identity is something I have got hung up on for years. One of the reassuring things about having good people in my life is they […]
Read More Thank God for … PurposeThe journey of following Jesus is about living in the now and the yet to come. So His Kingdom is now and yet to come. His presence is here now and He is yet to come.

Read More Thank God for … WholenessI love the concept of being nourished. It’s not just having food and drink physically, it’s more than that. It’s that which maintains complete health – food, drink, conversation, bathing, etc. Sometimes I hear of those who lack essential resources like clean water. Efforts are made to supply it by the caring and compassionate. Yet […]
Read More Thank God for … NourishmentWhether they know they’re jokers or not, the antics of jokers keeps me amused and then wary of my own tendency to be a joker.
