Who Am I? Why Am I Here? Why Won’t my Laptop Boot?

I typically restrict my posts to expositions of my thoughts or leading regarding my walk of faith. Though my faith underlies my thoughts, this post will be more one of wandering in the desert, so – my apologies. I don’t know who I am. I have become a stranger to myself, looking in the mirror …

1 Thessalonians 2:13

Have you ever had a verse embed itself within your consciousness? I have had this verse lodged in my mind since attending Bible college in the late 1980’s. I attributed this to a quirk of my mind, as I remember many things that I wish I could forget, but lately it has occurred to me …

Hello and Welcome!

There is a certain presumption in writing a blog. An arrogance perhaps in believing that you have something to say and that anyone else has an interest in reading it.
