Words Came out!

Recently God has been showing me the power of speaking words and how they really can effect people. So many times I have been talking with somebody and all of a sudden words start coming out of my mouth and I can’t stop them!! Sometimes they have been really wise and totally from the Lord,…

CHURCH – The People

As I pulled into the parking lot, smiles greeted me and hand signals guided me into the place were they would help me find a parking spot. I stepped out of the car and started walking up to the church. To be honest, I was pretty impressed with the building and all the work that…

People watching can be fun!

I use to sit and wonder why people did what they did and chose the lives that they do. I have always loved people watching and trying to figure out their stories on how they became who they are today. What decisions did they make and experiences did they have in order to become the…

The Cement Trance

I had been walking around downtown Wellington and noticed something really interesting. I think the people there love cement!

But this doesn’t always…

Fear of failure almost ruined my life.

Don’t Jump to Fast!

Relationships are a funny thing and can be one of the most difficult things in life to experience. Being that non of us are experts because of the diversity of people, we begin to ask tons of questions on how to approach situations. And the beginning stages are even harder… How do I tell somebody…
