Isaiah 41:10- Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.

Laziness is a sickness that creeps in slowly and before you know it, begins to destroy everything in your life. Everyone has something they struggle with that's an addiction for them, whether its porn, cutting, lying, smoking, drinking, drugs, cheating, stealing, gluttony, shopping, TV, video games, books... the list goes on and on.... if it is your world... it's probably a sickness for you and it could easily destroy your world too. Sicknesses soon take our attention off of everything else... a… Continue

In 9 days I will be getting married. It's an exciting time, but it's also a time to get very wrapped up in details. What's going right, what's going wrong, all the money we are spending, who is or is not coming... it's easy to become consumed with the less important things of the wedding than remembering what is important.

A wedding is a symbolic uniting of two people the bride (the church) with the bridegroom (Jesus). That's the heart of what marriage is. It is two people, centered in HIS love… Continue

Raw And Battered
People look into these tired eyes
But tonight no sleep shall enter them
The night grows dark
As her anger flourishes
The faint glow of a lamp
Illuminates a tear stained face
Sitting on her bed
Wounds open wide
Don't be deceived by what you do not see
She bleeds from the inside
Where no one can see

Knows this place all too well
The continuing battle He watches her tumble
As the rock of the mountain she climbs crumbles
Beneath her bleeding and torn fingers

Once again in this desert land
A sand storm has arisen
And I can no longer see Your face
Or feel Your embrace

I feel like I am just standing still
My mind is empty
I feel so void
As the dust clears
Your face appears
I fall to the dust

Beaten Down

There is something I carry
On this beaten weary body
That is rarely seen
On most in this world
Inside my heart
There is an unexplainable
HOPE
It blossoms like a rose
Through the hardship
Through this path
I have partially foraged
On my own
And partially was chosen
For me
I know Gods glory shines bright
Everything dark and dreary
In my life
Has taken light
With every strike
From this world
Whether from strangers
Friends or loved ones
I still walk tall
With love in my heart
And a hope… Continue
