  • The selfish me

    I feel dull this morning, wrapped in the cool embrace of the morning air as I breath and walk and listen to the birds wake and give praise for the day. I sometimes allow my mind to wander, when it feels safe enough to let it do so. This morning my mind wants, not from… Read more

  • Good morning. It’s funny and tragic how everything seems like it may be going so well, life is rollin’ along smoothly and then something happens. It could be something externally with a friend or family member, it could be something with your job or a hobby, maybe something internal, a bout of depression or just… Read more

  • A best friend in you

    If I had a best friend, someone I could share myself with unmasked, who would accept me entirely just as I am and who cared to truly see me. If I was brave enough, if I was bold enough, if I could trust even just one person enough…to share my faith in the Lord, my… Read more

  • Last night was beautiful. The air was crisp, the sky was clear and the moon was shining so bright. I couldn’t help but take pause and allow my eyes and soul to drink it in. In this life we are all blessed, it is full of so much beauty and grace. It amazes me how… Read more

  • I am for you always

    I will never abandon you; I am for you always. I do not sit with you with my body; I sit with you with my soul. I do not hold you so dear in my mind, I hold you so dear in my heart. I do not love you with my flesh, I love you… Read more

  • I remember you

    I knew you there before I knew you here. I know that could make me sound like I’m out of my mind, and I say let it be so. I would rather be beside myself and profess the truth then hold my tongue and attempt to quiet my heart. I remember you! I know you… Read more

  • Let us strive

    Let every breath in bring gratitude to our hearts. Let the stillness of the morning be inside of us. Let our nerves be calm. Let our doubts and pain be at ease. Let the stillness not sit so long in us that we feel alone. Let gratitude flow in, for all that we’ve known. Let… Read more

  • Good morning. I admire your strength and direction. That you have the confidence and passion to pursue the things in this life that you want, the things that you feel will make you more confident and will propel you into the future. I know you’re not perfect, though you could be nearly perfect; if just… Read more

  • Only a simple hug

    We are part of God’s hug. In perfect light all things reside. In perfect dark all things hide. In both all things are entirely unknowable as all that is known is perfect light and perfect dark. In this life the light allows us to experience all things that reside in it, while the dark would… Read more

  • To those now gone

    This morning I woke up with only one thought on my mind, “I miss you.” Like the nights miss the sun. Like the days miss the stars. I miss you. Like the lies miss the truth. Like the sick miss their health. I miss you Like the present misses the past. Like the shadow misses… Read more
