Lord, Have Mercy on Me

Recently I read the book of Daniel. There were a couple of things that really spoke to me as I read it. The book of Daniel is packed full of amazing glimpses of God.

Forgiveness and Thanksgiving

It seems like forever since I have written and it kind of has been.  Over the past few weeks things have been rough. 
Lately, I’ve been learning a lot about learning to be thankful and also learning what it means to forgive.  In my marriage, at work, with family and friends, I have a lot to [...]

Food for Thought

Is it bound or unbound, true or untrue? “Knowledge can be communicated, but…
