“WELL-TH” Building
Professionally, I enjoy the financial industry because of the social, economic, and growth potential it offers. Unlike any other industry, serving as a true finanical concierge, invites one into a person’s life by granting them influence into another’s business, home, family, and finances. With such access, character, competence, and compassion are essential components the most …
A Safe Man
I haven’t ever really felt “safe” around too many men. And to be honest, I haven’t consistently always been the safest man. In our world of competition, comparison, achievement, consumption, and struggle, we seem to convince ourselves it’s better to be “safely” distanced so that we can do what we must in order to survive, …
I Love You, Jesus
In my daily journal, I was reading Psalm 128. Such a beautiful Psalm of hope, promise, and love. As I wrote, I could feel joy rising up in my heart, and I couldn’t help but end my writings with the words, I love you, Jesus. It struck me and unnerved me at first, because I’m …
Moving Too Fast
I have always been hyperactive. My mind races, and my body has a hard time being still. This made school challenging, and focusing on details taxing. It demanded and still does require an enormous amount of self discipline to remain present. I can tend to jump from topic to topic, and sit with one foot …
Hearts Out From Hiding
I realize just how long and hard I have worked to keep my heart safe - to try and protect it from harm, pain, rejection, and sorrow. Although the intent to protect oneself initially seems good and well, and is obviously necessary to a degree - an unhealthy guarding comes from a spirit of fear …
Goodness Gone Gushing
“It’s not what you do for God, but what God does for you - that’s the agenda for rejoicing”. Good reminder - so often the subtle message we hear is what are you doing for God? The message is so duty filled, and full of obligation - detached from how our heart may feel. Doesn’t …
Enjoy The Best Of Jesus
Do we “enjoy” Jesus? I have seen various quotes from past saints claim such bold things as to “love God and enjoy the life He gives”, and to “enjoy the best of Jesus”, as well as the catechism, “glorify God and enjoy Him forever”. Yet, to be honest, how often do we see, or even …
Phoenix Love – 24 Years Ago Today
These lyrics were written by me, and sung acoustically by two friends at my wedding 24 years ago. Though I was barely 24 years old, it was my attempt, during that period in my life, to express my love for the person I wanted to marry. Granted, I had no idea what all that truly …
Thundering Herds
Numbers can drive movements and change - no doubt. Get any large army, large gathering, large groupings, and this power in numbers can be seen. However, there is also an unseen - and God seems to enjoy creating great movements with small numbers. Gideons army is a great example of this, as is the immeasurable …
Eager Livin’
To live eagerly inspires a sense of hope within my soul. It seems to awaken my heart to all that is, and all that is possible, as I grow ever more intimate with Christ in my life. Eager to relate healthier with others, or as the Message translation puts it, “being easy on people makes …
