Freedom and Responsibility

Eleanor Roosevelt said, “Freedom makes a huge requirement of every human being. With freedom comes responsibility.” Thursday we as a nation honored Veteran's Day. A few years ago on Nov. 13, I called my dad to check in and see how he was ...

There’s One Thing that Controls Everything, and It Isn’t What You Think!

Morning Meditation – A Weekday Spiritual Guide Usually, when we think that there’s “one thing that controls everything,” - we think of that one thing being God. Indeed, we believe that God is all-powerful, all-good, all-knowing, but as United ...

One Size Does NOT Always Fit ALL!

Morning Meditation – A Weekday Spiritual Guide Who doesn’t like a “one size fits all?” Truth, we only like it when it fits. Prayer, spirituality, and faith are not one size fits all. For Halloween, we wanted Axel (our German Shepherd) to be ...

Maybe it is ok if we never see.

I recently visited a West person in the hospital, and we talked about their procedure and future path. "You know that scripture where they talk about how God uses all things for good, even when they are pretty horrific? I believe that ...

It may sound corny, but it’s true.

"I'm blessed to be a blessing" . . . I have never been a huge fan of that phrase, but as corny as it may sound, it is pretty accurate. “There’s no way I can have faith in a God that would allow this to happen, to allow such pain.” If you ...

Refusing to Move – Why are we so angry?

Thursday, I went to a pharmacy to get my COVID booster. It was apparently the magic hour to do so because, in the time that I waited for my paperwork to get processed, 20 more people came to stand in line for something. There were many workers ...

This hurts me more than it hurts you!

“Now, that wasn’t so bad, was it?” Ever heard that? Or . . . “This hurts me more than it hurts you.” Really, how can you be so sure? Most likely those phrases are some you’ve heard throughout life. If you lived in the days of “spanking” by ...

Get Quiet in There!

When we are experiencing anxiety and worry, we have thoughts/voices running through our heads. What if we reframe those thoughts into prayer . . . what might happen? (Please note I am referring to the emotion and feeling of anxiety, not the ...

Duct Tape Cannot Fix Everything!

“We have a problem I need you to look at,” Tom said as I drove up. He came towards me carrying his bike frame, pointing to a crack on the shaft. “I noticed this just now when I was putting my bike away. I don’t know what to do about this, ...

Oh S***, I’m Stuck!

Ever said those words? And yeah, there’s a word of great frustration in there because truth, at some point in our lives, we’ve all been “stuck” so much in something that we were angry enough to say a little profanity. In worship on Sunday, I ...
