Another restless night, sleep quickly fades away. My mind works overtime, so many things to say. Calling out to You oh Lord, in a silent prayer. My thoughts begin to jumble, leaving me nowhere. An attempt to reign things in, to organize my thoughts. Yet failure once again, requests which now are lost. Frustratingly to … Continue reading Jumbled Prayers

The darkness of the soul, in great need of Your light. Self righteousness among us, no realization of their plight. Hearts so full of hatred, so hard to comprehend. Please pierce them with Your holiness, bring darkness to an end. Our world is deeply hurting, dear Lord please hear my plea. So much evil is … Continue reading Dark Hearts

Thank A Soldier
I recently got to chat with my son for a few minutes. He's currently stationed in South Korea with the US Army. There's a good possibility he will go on to Afghanistan for a 4th tour. I'm not happy about this. With our world changing the way it is and ISIS running rampant persecuting Christians, … Continue reading Thank A Soldier
