Today I read a statement. “What you don’t change, you choose.” What am I choosing? I get up every morning, and go about my morning routine. You know the drill, shower, brush teeth, fix my hair, etc. I go downstairs and pour a cup of coffee. I then go sit on the couch and pull […]
A Clean So Powerful
All of us have seen those adds for laundry detergent or all-purpose cleaning spray or some newly imagined delivery system for dish soap that claim to be so powerful at cleaning, that dirt just flees as soon as it is applied.

BEWARE OF INVISIBLE COWS
There’s a sign near the Mauna Kea volcano in Hawaii that reads “BEWARE OF INVISIBLE COWS”. No joke. And they couldn’t be more serious. This very tall mountain is filled with open cattle ranges.

Sometimes we mess up in ways people would deem unredeemable. We can’t necessarily call them mistakes because we knew what we were doing, knew it was wrong, and still did it. At some point, some of us start to believe that because others can’t forgive us, neither can God. But that is completely false. Something […]
Overwhelmed
