The Gift of an Almighty Healer
It was 4:57—three minutes before five o’clock pm which meant it was three minutes before I’d clock out and head out the door to go home. It was then and only then she started to cry, this little girl not even three years old. Tears streamed down her face, and her nose ran. I should…

The Gift of the Journey: A Tale of Two Camels
Once upon a time, in a far away land, two camels made their way across the desert. The two camels came to a wall, but only one was big enough to get over it. The little camel looked up at the bigger camel and said “You go ahead. I’m too small. I obviously am not…

The Gift of Loneliness
I had a dream the other night—the very dream that inspired this blog post. I was spending the night at a friend’s house. In the dream, my friend told me she was going to meet up with her other friends, and she would be back later. I felt this overwhelming sense of loneliness I haven’t…

He who finds a wife finds a good thing. (Proverbs 18:22) What makes a wife? A wedding ceremony, a ring on your finger, a shared bank account and living space? I want to make a bit of an ironic claim: The “Proverbs 31 woman” was a wife before she had a husband and would have…

The Gift of an Unanswered Prayer
“God answers prayers in three different ways: yes, not yet, I have something better in mind.” Unknown When I was in my mid twenties, I thought I was in love. I’ve never prayed so hard for someone to stay in my life, and I never will again. It was never God’s will for this person…

The Gift of Movement
The wind blows through the trees, and rain falls to the ground. The bird flies across the sky, and the mother gives birth to her child. The baby takes it’s first steps and eventually learns to walk. Life is marked by movement. We experience mind shifts, heart changes, and spiritual growth. Even our mere thoughts…

The Gift of You
Leave this world better than you find it. Leave people better than you find them. Do you ever wonder how you can leave your mark on the world? It’s a bit of an overwhelming thought to have. Start by asking yourself how you can leave your mark on the day, this day. Ask God to…
