Problems, pressures, and pitfalls will always be a part of our life. Like swamplands, we sludge our way through them, not ignoring the fact we are in the swamp, but also not allowing it to stop us, or to prevent us from moving forward. But why continue to move? Why keep going? What is the …
Sweet and Sour
Life is short - even in Psalm 90 we’re reminded how brief the 80 years or so we might have truly is. And that during those years there are plenty of hardships and pains. This is the sourness of life. Yet, there is also sweetness - primarily the unfailing love of God that is available …
Living In Awe
I’ve been reading and seeing more and more people pursing their “second half” of life. Their first half may have been spent building their education, experience, and moving into the “executive” suite. They may have made it in terms of money and position, but feel something still burning inside, and even parts of them decaying. …
Freedom To Flow
I recently heard a communication expert share a key skill in helping us engage healthier communications with others - even those we disagree with. The skill was in learning how to give freedom to the thoughts we have during communications to come and go from our minds. Thereby resisting the need to capture and articulate …
Mornings with Jesus
I love how Jesus made and shared breakfast on the beach with His friends. I’m sure it was one of many for them. Personally, I look forward to my mornings with Jesus too. I always leave them with a renewed and refreshed sense of purpose, peace, and hope. This is helpful because I’m sure like …
Investigate The Boredom
Boredom strikes us all, and is a drudgery in life. It seems that no matter what we pursue, what we gain, what we win, what we acquire, it all eventually fades. For some there’s “shop therapy” to help eliminate and reduce boredom. For the exploration and quick satisfaction of purchasing creates within itself an adventure. …
Making Dents
I recently read an article that referenced how each of us make our own unique and beautiful dent in the universe via the “work” we do. Kind of like the idea our legacies will be measured by our life’s investments, rather than our life’s accumulations. Clearly we all need, want, and work for money. However, …
Kind Intentions
We’ve heard of having the “best of intentions” and even “good intentions”, but there are also “kind intentions”. I love Romans 2:4 that declares it’s the “kindness of God that leads to repentance”. His kindness changes hearts, directions, and intentions. How powerful an image. Not His wrath, His judgment, or His might, though these are …
Step Into Vulnerabilty
Have you ever felt like you don’t fit in, belong, or have a “seat at the table”? In other words, you feel safer remaining on the outside, and as an outsider. Although, there is a deep longing for acceptance, affirmation, and validation, the hope for such things seem too dangerous. So, in an attempt to …
“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 …
