The Will
Free will. The will is a funny thing. It is a gift yet can seem to be a curse. It is to be submitted before God as our Lord, King, Father, friend. That's the best scenario, anyway. Yet, daily, this is a choice, a decision we have. To choose. Oh, the gift of choice. What … Continue reading The Will

What does the term, 'Black Friday' make you think of? Feel? As a child, my memory of Black Friday was the commercials we would see on TV. Macy's, Walmart, and every other department store, it seemed, was battling for our eyes and ears. I knew, beyond shadow of doubt, that Christmas was coming. In fact, … Continue reading ThanksGIVING Thursday and Black Friday
Out of Control?
There is a, in my opinion, lyrical revelation in the song I want to share with you today. 2014 for me has been a very turbulent yet very forward moving and purposeful year for me. Maybe you can relate??
