Who’s with you in the dark? the lion…or the lamb?
Can you think of a time when you found yourself in the midst of a circumstance or crisis that looked totally and absolutely hopeless? Maybe you are in the midst of that today. Regardless of the situation, all of us find ourselves in… Continue Reading “Who’s with you in the dark? the lion…or the lamb?”
Shadow dancing With God…
I knew instinctively that God was the answer, I just couldn’t seem to find him, at least not in the way I was seeking. Everything I did, seemed a vain attempt.. like I was always dancing with shadows.
“I will sing to the Lord because he is good!”

the hands of god…

As I sit here writing today, I can look back and see the journey through a “post-perspective”, a rear view look in the mirror.
Somewhere between then and there…
When I first wrote this Journal entry and prayer below, it was 2 years ago and we were facing a seemingly unsurmountable mountain. Everything around us seemed to be disappearing, and we struggled to hold onto our hope for any type of reprieve. All… Continue Reading “Somewhere between then and there…”
