Pain can be a difficult and overwhelming experience, but it also has the potential to reveal unexpected strength within us. No one likes feeling pain – emotional or physical – yet we are often strengthened by our ability to persevere through it. When faced with hardship, many of us retreat, giving up without fighting for […]

Things Above
There is a department store called, “Things Above” and everything in it is free. All you have to do is show up and start taking all of the wonderful things the store has to offer. Your cashier is Jesus. He waits for you and greets you with a smile when you walk in. The first thing you have to do though, before taking home the gifts He has to offer is to do an exchange. That is step one. You exchange your old self for a new self. Once you put on your new self, it is time to exchange a few other things. Jesus is happy to take them back even though you didn’t “buy” those things at His store. He has a great exchange policy.

Emptying the Dishwasher
One of the chores that I absolutely cannot stand doing is emptying the dishwasher. I dislike it so much so, that I put it off…and put it off…until I absolutely must do it. Or sometimes I get lucky and Michael does it! So that got me thinking today…do I do that with anything else in […]
