How many of you enjoy test taking? I know I don’t. I had a test taking experience in college in which a professor designed his tests so that every answer would seem close. A, B, C, D, and he added an E, which would either be all of the above or none of the above. I did...
How do you pray? I was thinking about myself today. I remember a time when I believed prayer was nothing more than speaking a laundry list. Please don’t misunderstand me. I need the Lord and I ask Him to sustain me each and every day. But a lot of times we get caught u...
Who is the King of Glory? I have been thinking about this question that was asked of us in Psalm 24. David says, “The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it. The world and all its people belong to him. For he laid the earth’s foundation on the seas and built it on t...

As I was reading the second half of Psalm 19 I had a thought. Yes, I know thoughts for me don’t come too often, but I believe this is a good one. David says, “How can I know all the sins lurking in my heart? Cleanse me from these hidden faults. Keep your servant from d...
I am really a fan of the simple things. My ideas and creative thoughts can be put into a nice neat box and then sealed so nothing spills out between the cracks of the lid. I am not a fan of hard riddles or thoughts that make you think for a long time. All of those thin...
Perfection. How many of you struggle with this in your life? I know I do. I want everything to be just right. I fight against it, but a lot of times, perfection wins. I want the staple in the paper to be just right. I want the meeting to go perfect as I say and express...
