I just wanted to remind someone today that you got this! The enemy might be trying to fight hard against you, but remember that nothing is too big or hard for you to take on. Remember that God is on your side! He loves you, He has a good plan for you, and He’s got your back. He will bring you through - so keep pushing forward!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“Be well balanced (temperate, sober of mind), be vigilant and cautious at all times; for that enemy of yours, the devil, roams around like a lion roaring [in fierce hunger], seeking someone to seize upon and devour. Withstand him; be firm in faith [against his onset–rooted, established, strong, immovable, and determined], knowing that the same (identical) sufferings are appointed to your brotherhood (the whole body of Christians) throughout the world.”
‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭5‬:‭8‬-‭9‬ ‭AMPC‬

This past week we had to say goodbye to our little Riley (AKA Fwing). It feels like these past 16 years flew by in a flash - the days were long, but the years were all too short. I’m gonna miss all the countless cuddles, walks in the woods, and the hours of playtime we had together. Thank you for the love and all the silly fun. We will always love and miss you - looking forward to the day when we see you again.

It’s finally here - my new single “Deja Vu” is available now, everywhere you listen to music! I hope it reminds you that, even when we mess up and go back to the places we swore we’d never go back to, Jesus is greater and He has the power to ultimately set us free and heal us in the deepest places of our hearts. Check it out and feel free to share if you like it!

“Oh, what a miserable person I am! Who will free me from this life that is dominated by sin and death? Thank God! The answer is in Jesus Christ our Lord. So you see how it is: In my mind I really want to obey God’s law, but because of my sinful nature I am a slave to sin. So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus.” - Romans‬ ‭7:24-8:1

Hey, Blue - It’s been one whole year since we said goodbye to you. How? It hasn’t been the same without you. Some days are better than others. Your Mama talks about you all the time with tears of sadness, joy, and memory in her eyes. I do my best to help but all I can do is listen. Graham’s getting bigger and now says “Doofen” proudly every time he points to your picture on the wall. I like to imagine he’d hang all over you like he does with Riley and Destiny, and you’d silently deal with it even though you’d probably want to get away. Because that’s just the kind of dog you were. You were loyal, loving, comforting, and there - you were always just there. I think that’s the hardest thing we’ve had to give up with you being gone. But even though we miss you and still deal with the sadness, we’re okay. And we’ll be talking about you and reminiscing on all the wonderful, silly, ridiculous, sweet things you used to do, until we see you again. Love you always.

It’s finally here - my newest single “Land of the Living” is out now, everywhere you listen to music! I hope this song is a reminder to you that we will see God’s goodness and mercy - not just one day in Heaven, but here and now as we live and breathe! God is moving and active all around us, if we will just open our eyes to see it. May this song encourage you to hold on a little longer, to believe more deeply, and to trust Him more fully, through whatever storm you’re facing.

“Yet I am confident I will see the Lord’s goodness while I am here in the land of the living.” - Psalms‬ ‭27‬:‭13‬

We have a real struggle today of not comparing ourselves to everyone else, don’t we? With everyone putting their lives on display through social media, it can be hard not to fixate on what others have; especially when they are things you are either lacking or want yourself. I know what that’s like because I’ve struggled with that myself. So, I want to encourage you today by reminding you that God has your best interest at heart and that He has good things in store for you. Just because you feel like you might be lacking or missing out now, doesn’t mean it will be that way forever. Maybe God just wants to reveal to you how you’ve been fixating on the wrong things, when you should be keeping your eyes on Him.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The last thing we ever want to do is become jealous or resentful or someone else, as it doesn’t do anything good for us (see James 3:14-16). Instead, be grateful for all you do have, rather than focusing on what you don’t. Remember that God gave you what you have, you didn’t do it yourself. And He expects you to be a good steward with it; no matter how big or small those blessings might be. I mean hey, you’re still blessed! If you ever find yourself getting jealous of someone else, pray that God would help you see things His way and to help you choose to be thankful for the blessings in yours and in other’s lives. That shows maturity and it also shows thankfulness to God for all He has done for you.

Once upon a time, parents made it a point to teach their children good, honest, and noble values. Men would teach their sons to be men of valor and integrity, who would do the right thing, respect women, and honor God with their lives and families. Women would teach their daughters to be women of value and worth, who would lead by example, fight for what matters, and honor their husbands by standing side by side together in the face of adversity. Somewhere along the lines, parents either got lazy or bought into the lie that putting God in the backseat was both the politically correct and safe thing to do. Now with violence, drug use, various addictions, sexual promiscuity, and ever decreasing respect for authority on the rise, it’s no wonder that our society is the way it is today.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Winston Churchill knew the value of having parents teach the virtues of life to their children. By doing so, they perpetuated a productive, caring, ethically sound society; one far different from the morally bankrupt version we see today. Guys, we can still get back there. But, we can’t rely on the government, committees, or institutions to make the difference. It all starts with putting God first in our lives and our families. We need to take Him out of the backseat and put Him back in the driver’s seat where He belongs. We need to read God’s Word, apply it to our daily lives, walk in love, and follow His standards of right living. Then and only then, will we see our neighborhoods, our towns, our society, our country, and our world change for the better.
