FREEDOM!! Happy 4th of July!

How many ways can it be declared? How many ways can it be discussed?

We live in the United States of America and we are free. We are free. Let that sink in.

We complain about a lot…and I am one of the chiefs, but we are free. Continue reading Freedom! Happy 4th! →

Seething…ANGER

I feel like a cartoon character when I am angry.

I wear my feelings on my shirtsleeve as they say. In reality, I cannot hide my feelings from anyone. Oh how I wish I could, but I cannot. That is why I make a terrible liar, you can see it all over my face.

People are going through severe personal issues, loss of jobs, cancer, emotional pain…the list goes on and on. And these things have gone on as long as I have been alive to remember, and they will continue to do so. I cannot fix any of it. I want to….I so hurt for them. So I pray.

The hard questions come from others. Why? Shouldn’t we pray harder? I don’t have answers for those questions, nor do I even understand what it means to pray “harder”. But I do know one thing….Jesus gets it, and my home is really not here anyway, this is indeed my temporary residence. Continue reading I Am Just Passing Through…. →
