What God Is Not Doing

What God Is Not Doing

Wanted to share a page of of my journal from April of 2007…

A little bit of the backdrop here…I was in the middle of going through divorce and these words are “as written” and not edited.

During conversations with my Heavenly Father I often ask for Him to reveal more of Himself to me and to speak to my heart. So often, I have found that He does reveal Himself in our lives and He does speak to our hearts, but we simply miss it in all of our business; we don’t listen. Well, recently I guess I was at a place where I was ready to listen because He spoke to my heart loud and clear and I hear Him. I have to tell you that it was a tough word for me to receive, but it was a word that I needed to hear.

Nothing Is Wasted

It is so hard to keep going sometimes when life is so difficult, isn’t it? We know God has a purpose for us, but sometimes we just can’t see it yet.

The Weaving
My life is but a weaving
between my Lord and me,
I cannot choose the colors
He worketh steadily.
Oftimes he weaveth sorrow,
And I in foolish pride
Forget He sees the upper
And I, the underside.
Not till the loom is silent
And the shuttles cease to fly
Shall God unroll the canvas
And explain the reason why.
The dark threads are as needful
In the Weaver’s skillful hand
As the threads of gold and silver
In the pattern he has planned.

—Corrie ten Boom

Are you ready to start trusting Him with your life, even when it doesn’t make sense?

How To Become A Man Of Steel

How To Become A Man Of Steel

Had a chance to see the new Superman movie Man of Steel and it was awesome, I really enjoyed it! If the word “epic” has lost its meaning in the throes of recent summers, Man of Steel redefines it. I loved the original superman movies and still do, but this reboot by Zack Snyder (Director of 300) left me wanting more. I haven’t seen a good Superman move since the Christopher Reeves series.

Man of Steel is a movie that finally goes with the approach that there’s been no other Superman movies.

 -Zack Snyder

But with all the recent superhero movies, I walked out with some deeper questions.

Is Superman relevant today?

The Shocking Truth About Our Deeper Issue

The Shocking Truth About Our Deeper Issue

Lets go back to the story of the woman caught in adultery in John 8:1-11 where the people of the town were going to stone her. This is one of the coolest stories in the New Testament. Jesus responds to the situation by saying “He who is without sin cast the first stone.” This is brilliant!
