Why We Weep
Every day in our world, there are events that shake us. Events that remind us of the depravity of humans, events that are simply unfair, and events that cause us to reflect inwardly about our own human failings. Mass shootings, disease, strife, rage, gossip and the like. It seems that our lives will be consumed […]

An Allegory: Part Two
Hello, again. My name is Meek-One. I am a sheep. Last week, I began telling my story. But not really my story, it’s the story of my Shepherd-King. As I follow His voice, the roads, paths, and alleyways that I travel take me to places of meaningful work. These paths go everywhere, and I follow […]

An Allegory: Part One
Hello. My name is Meek-One. I am a sheep. As I survey my surroundings, I see those with names like Wolf-Man and Lion-Hearted that mean me harm. They are my mortal enemies, and they would consume me in an instant. Cutting me down, wounding me, leaving me crippled and dying is their aim. I see […]

Much of the ensuing dialogue, then, is about nit-picking the pieces that people disagree with. […]

Iron Sharpens Iron, and vice versa
I need you. And I am not being arrogant when I say you need me. There it is. We need each other. The idea of iron sharpening iron comes from Proverbs 27:17, “Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another.” This can be a life-giving, extremely important principle for our lives. To be so, it […]

Until There Is No More Need
I recently posted the following statement: “Contentment and generosity, in tandem, are the keys that unlock the healthiest you”. As I witness people around me complain, whine, or even joke about the price of gas lately, it occurs to me that having these thoughts is 1) a statement about our lack of contentment and 2) […]

On Spiritual Health
At the very foundation of your overall health lies the realization that your life is not about you. When you relieve yourself of the responsibility of being all-powerful and in charge of all circumstances, you come to a place that has room for emotional health, which in turn gives you the ability to improve intellectual […]
