Who’s At The Wheel?

Be still, and know that I am God!  Psalm 46:10 Be still in this restless world?  Is it even possible?  Perhaps not.  Unless we let God do the stilling in us. Be still, and know that I am God!

Are You a Fast Forgiver?

Someone once told me, “Never pray God makes you a good forgiver.  He’ll bless you with a ton of practice opportunities!” And you know what?  They were right. Forgiveness isn’t for cowards.  It’s for those who want to be like Christ. I’m a fast forgiver, but (confession time), I’m also a fast pick-up-the-offenser! How do you let it go? By practicing.  You need to keep letting it...
