For the love of Money

Growing up I was really into this group called Bone Thugs N Harmony. They were the pioneers of tongue twisting rap, where they would flow out super quick rhymes and make it sound really easy and smooth. It was actually pretty impressive! One year they came out with a song called “For the Love of…

A girl name ENTITLED!

I ran into a girl named Entitled yesterday. She had a very interesting story. From a young age she had been born into a family that gave her everything that she wanted. “No” was not in her vocabulary because the parents felt that if they said “no”, it would take away her happiness. As she…

ONE YEAR OLDER

My birthday was yesterday and I realized that I am one year older. Funny how that works! Each year God takes you through a journey that will grow you, teach you and allow you to gain more wisdom. The older you are, the more life experience you have, and that can either be good or…

What if you could change your entire perspective on life and everything around you started to take a different shape in how you saw things? What if you started to look at the things you have, and those items became enough? Over the last couple years God has really been doing that in my life. …

The Relationship Tank

The other day I was filling up my gas tank and started thinking about what you put into your car and how it actually matters. There is something very specific that is needed to make your car move, and that is gas. If I try to put anything else into the gas tank, it will…
