So I was outside earlier (a gorgeous day in Syracuse, NY!) attending to the lawn. While I was thinking about the mower and trimmer, it struck me that we, as human beings, are creations just like this object in my hand. We, unlike the mechanical device in my hand, have the capacity to reflect God … Continue reading

Insomnia & Laura Story
Been spending time with the Lord this morning, and it’s been GLORIOUS! Got some housework done, and then I felt as though the Lord was calling me in unto Himself, for some private time with Him. I don’t often, or at least up until now, haven’t often, shared about such experiences, but I feel compelled … Continue reading
Application of the Golden Rule: Some Real-Life Communication
So, I’ve been realizing something about the Golden Rule lately; it requires a bit of forward thinking! In the years that I’ve been following Christ, I’ve transitioned from needing to be heavily discipled by others, to entering into more of a period of enjoying peer fellowship, to now having attained the degree of maturity in … Continue reading
Honestly: A Struggle
I feel compelled to write. It’s ten of three in the morning. I’m not one to talk about these kinds of things to people (usually talk only to the Lord ’bout ’em), especially in a public forum like this, but I feel like I’m supposed to; here goes! After months, and now I’m realizing years, … Continue reading

I haven’t been feeling the best lately, folks. I can’t explain it, but I’ve been feeling a high level of fatigue for weeks on end. I’ve tried different diets, more and less sleep, more and less exercise, etc. etc. and nothing seems to shake it. It’s even begun to affect my attention during conversations and … Continue reading

Reading the word of God, the Holy Bible, is EXTREMELY important in the life of a Christian. Regardless of what movement, denomination, or local church we find ourselves, all Christians can agree on this one point. Since the Bible is so important in the life of a believer, let me put forth a question to … Continue reading
Purposeful Beauty
Beauty with a Purpose So, I was walking down the street today, (like many days lately, since I am currently without a vehicle) and the beauty of the white blossoms in the otherwise sterile metropolitan environment. Then, a blurb from an old Creed song popped into my head. Go ahead and take a moment to … Continue reading
Cycles of Deliverance: Huh?
I have heard the phrase ‘cyclical deliverance’ in Christian circles before, and I figured it was a Biblical concept. This morning I feel the Lord pressing on me to show how and why from the Bible itself! Father Yahweh, may these words reflect Your words, wisdom, and heart and may any that don’t not cause … Continue reading
Truth Seeker
I’ve been feeling pretty isolated on this one, I’ve gotta say. Would love to know what y’all think out there in webland! Father, please show me Your truth. May I no longer be deceived in any form or fashion and may I be diligent to find all the details of your everlasting truths … Continue reading

I know some word-of-faith-er’s might not like what I just wrote, but I swear it’s true!! If you’re offended, please keep on reading and hopefully we can undo that as quickly as we just gone on and dun it! Father Yahweh, please fill me with Your wisdom, Your words, and Your ways only. May … Continue reading
