Control Freak
Let It Go Control Freak. My wife has always called me a control Freak, and she would know! In fact I have found that most entrepreneurs are! They are used to leading! They have an ability to take control and effect positive outcomes, even in tough situations! They are “take charge” people. They accept risk […]
Selfless Ambition
Am I Watering The Right Things? What’s In Your Garden? CS Lewis once stated, “Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it’s thinking of yourself less.” I have found that much can be accomplished with the right perspective of ourselves and our role, and with Mission-driven purpose, not our own selfish desires leading the Charge! […]
If It Says “Pickles” on the Label, There Better Be Pickles In the Jar!
If It says “pickles” on the label, there better be pickles in the jar! I have found that we as human beings do not always live what we profess, nor profess what we live! I, like most people, have found myself jumping on my soap box about something I am passionate about or a philosophy […]
Pitch Perfect
Practice Your Pitch And Be Perfect In Christ! Roar! As a singer, I am a bit envious of a few people I have met over the years as vocalists with perfect pitch. That is, the ability to hit notes without any assistance from an instrument or from others! It’s pretty amazing to always be in […]
Love All the Way
Trust in the Father in the face of adversity. Trust in God’s divine providence and make an act of Love of our own free will to trust in His divine providence! Pray for the ability to Love without attachment, to love unceasingly! A forgiving love, a sacrificial love, as Christ did for us on the cross! […]

Pivot Points
Hey, Be Careful Where You Point That Thing! Anger and vengeance are the weapons used to destroy us! Humility and forgiveness are the armor and shield to preserve and protect us! We stand at a Pivot Point with Our pride and ego. Anger and vengeance on one side and humility, forgiveness and Love on the […]
Don’t Play the Blame Game
It seems that many of our current conversations focus on blaming the woes of our modern times on others. This includes blaming our neighbors, law enforcement, government, etc. for our many concerns. We blame others and never seem to find resolve to the underlying issues! Blame almost always accompanies various levels of angst and anger […]
For Rich or Poor
For Rich or Poor ———– Lord Teach me how to be abased, how to be abound. In abundance and in want I still hear the precious sound. Of your voice inside my heart, of your heart that gives me peace. Let go of all that binds me, so I can find release. From a world […]
See the World Through Rose-Colored Glasses
Recognize These? (Image courtesy of Douglas P. Perkins, 2013) See the World through rose-colored glasses. Yesterday, I spent an hour with some neighbors and the cardboard glasses viewing the Solar Eclipse! It was an ominous sight! You have to wonder about the vast Universe and how our world is affected by the stars, the sun […]
