What a wonderful weekend as You, Lord, allowed me to compete in IronMan 70.3 Atlantic City. I don’t know that I have felt the need for God’s strength in a race as much as this, as I have been dealing with an injury and I found out that I was unable to defer to next... Continue Reading →
It may not say in the Bible that God won’t give you more than you can handle, but it does say that He won’t allow you to be tempted beyond what you can take. “No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be... Continue Reading →

That to be Christian means to avoid joy? This is clearly not found in the Word of God. I am not saying that there aren’t times... Continue Reading →
Work, school, social media, TV, hobbies, sports, and on and on and on... pushing through on the non-stop treadmill of life.

This past weekend we celebrated Mother’s Day.
