(Several years ago I was encouraged by a friend to make the Proverb that corresponds with the day of the month, a part of my morning devotion. There are 31 Proverbs and although I’ve been reading them consistently for a number of years, each time I read them I seem to draw another “life nugget”…

That’s Why They Call it a Disease
I am preparing to do two-1/2 ironman triathlons this summer/fall. I will spend anywhere from 8 to 15 hours per week training and the events will take me somewhere between 5 and 6 hours. One of my “bucket list” goals is to do a full ironman before I die and if I die doing…
Wise Living…pretty simple
Proverbs 29:11 “Fools vent their anger, but the wise quietly hold it back. …simply some food for thought…are you a fool or wise? I’ve been on both sides of that coin and can tell you choosing the “wise” route is much better for all parties involved. Anger drains energy and creates a general loss of focus…
Defining our “vomit”
Proverbs 26:11, “As a dog returns to its vomit, so a fool repeats his foolishness.” The 26th Proverb is a great lesson about fools and the 11th verse is a translation of one of my favorite quotes, “the definition of insanity is doing things the same way and expecting different results.” I don’t know about you,…
“Jesus is Just Alright”
He came, he experienced, he was exalted, he was rejected, he was denied, he was betrayed, he anguished, he wept, he thought about turning back, he was betrayed, he was beaten. he was whipped, he was abused, he was spit on, he was mocked, he was nailed to a tree and left for dead, he suffered…

Whenever I read this scripture, I marvel at how well Jesus paints the picture of the importance of doing things the right way. In essence he tells us we not only will reap what we sow, but the type of fertilizer…
Bad Company
1 Corinthians 15:33, “Don’t be fooled by those who say such things, for bad company corrupts good character.” Paul’s statement in the scripture above is so simple yet so true. As I’ve shared many times, I use my P.E.A.C.E. acrostic as a simple formula to keep me on a successful track in life. I know first…
No rewind…
John 14: 1-3; “Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, trust also in me. In my Father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me…
