Man of the House
Are you the man of the house? When you go to church on Sunday, do you return home with a load of spiritual nourishment for your family to survive on for the week? You should. You’re the priest of your home. Yeah… you. There are a lot of titles you hold because of your…
The Manual
I’m a technical writer. It gives me great satisfaction to create an elegant manual that will enable a customer to solve problems and operate their purchased software at its peak capacity. My manuals are free to all customers who purchase our product. The catch? You have to read it. Occasionally, a customer calls for help…
Standing the Watch
Have you been asking God for something lately? I know I have. Do you feel the answers are slow or non-existent? Me too—that is, until the other day when I read Habakkuk 2:1. “I will climb up to my watchtower and stand at my guardpost. There I will wait to see what the Lord says…

And the best of the three is love.” When you stop to think about love, what comes to mind? Affection—admiration—desire—need—attraction—overlooking the faults of…

Potential
William Shakespeare wrote, “What’s in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” Or would it? If Donald Trump changed his name to Gladys Smith, would all the prestige, trust, and brand recognition follow him to his new name? Hardly. Our names are important. They appear to…
