Every time disaster strikes, there will be those that conclude God’s will is at work. But I just can’t believe that God’s will for His children is pain and suffering.

If we’re going to make and implement goals, we need to believe our goals are attainable. Believing something might not be possible is surely self-defeating.

How many times when making a resolution, taking an action or when thinking about something you’re striving or hoping for, are you apprehensive, doubtful, leery, skeptical, unbelieving, wary or uptight about the desired results?

Are you ready to blaze a new road on your life journey?

A Facebook friend recently commented, “I’ll be happy to see 2009 in my rearview mirror.”

How many times have you said, “We’ve got to get together sometime?” But that time never happens.

Once upon a time Christmas managed to bring so-called mortal enemies together as friends. Can it ever happen again?

Like the wise men of old, we don’t always know exactly what to expect when we get to the end of our search.

This has been a rough year on many fronts. And I’m ready for how the Christmas season makes me feel. How about you?

When we’re struggling with depleted savings, job loss, limited income, separation from family or illness, it can be hard to see the light at the end of what feels like a very dark tunnel.

Even though my bank account is the smallest it’s been in a few years, I’ve never been as excited for Black Friday as I am this year.

Are you struggling with depression, loneliness or fear and wondering where God is? You’re not alone, my friend.

Every football season I’m inspired by the number of teams who trail by thirty points or more for most of a game and then make a comeback and win. What does it take to make that kind of recovery?

Sometimes I think too much about everything that’s going on in my life or a family member’s life or what’s on the news. And I want to stop thinking and just have fun!

Cooking is not the only area of my life that has become stagnant, boring or not working as efficiently and creatively as it once did. And I suspect I am not alone.
