"How are you?"

"Oh, everything's great!"

How often do we lie to people about how things are REALLY going? And I'm not just talking about the kind acquaintance you run into at the store. I'm talking about plastering on a fake smile to even your closest people!

We all do it, but I'm challenging you to start asking your friends the REAL questions.

"How are you REALLY doing?" or even: "How's your heart in this season?"

Give people a chance to pause and receive love, advice, or even prayer. It could make all the difference and it starts by asking better questions. ... See MoreSee Less

Stop giving yourself excuses to not start going after what God has placed in you.

Are you breathing while reading this? Yes? Than you, my friend, are not done yet!

Age doesn't mean to STOP dreaming. The Creator of time itself is not alarmed about your age or the season.

He is not bound by time.

So what are you waiting for sis? It's time to get back in the race.

We need you and your timeless wisdom. We need you, and your many years of experience.

Yes, it's YOU we need. ... See MoreSee Less

Today she turns 70.
.
Three score and ten.
.
God has been faithful.
.
But so has she.
.
She has been faithful to love Jesus after telling Him when she was 15 years old that she wanted to live for Him. And she has served her Savior well.
.
She has been faithful to love my father after telling him at 20 that she would be by his side through all of the ups and downs of life. She has been an excellent wife.
.
She has been faithful to love her children after praying to God for each one and then after they were born, offering them each back to God because they were His, not hers. Her children have called her blessed over and over because she is.
.
She has been faithful to love others as a pastor’s wife, business woman, mentor, good neighbor and friend. She is the best at remembering birthdays, giving gifts, sharing wisdom, making decisions, and giving each person her full attention when talking to them after a Sunday service.
.
And she has been faithful with a unique flare and a grace all her own.
.
She always looks like a million bucks. She is aware of who she is, and what God has called her to and has always walked with a confidence adorned with style.
.
She is a girl with many gifts and has put those gifts to full use. She has not only built and managed a local and worldwide ministry alongside my father, she sings, she plays the piano, and she cooks like no one else I know.
.
She loves life and believes in living life with excellence. She hasn’t just read the books, she’s attended the classes, taken the history trips, and loved learning about the world. She has never stopped growing.
.
She has been faithful to live full.
.
And when this faithful person is your mother, your life is full to overflowing because she has poured herself into yours.
.
She is amazing. And today she turns 70.
.
God has been faithful. But so has she.
.
Mommy, you amaze me.
.
In all seasons of life you have consistently believed in God, believed in my father, and believed in your children.
.
You have believed in me and believed the best for me.
.
And I want you to know that I believe in you and am believing for you too.
.
Happy 70th birthday Mommy. I love you so very much.

For as high as the heavens above, how great is the measure of our Father’s love. Great is the measure of our Father’s love 🎶

The ocean always reminds me of the bigness of the world. I come to the edge of the dry land and feel so much of the surpassing power of the God who created what I see with His Word.
.
Sometimes it’s not the ocean
.
It’s me.
.
I come to the end of myself, and the waves of His grace rise to meet me, reminding me that His same power creates, forms, and molds me through who I am and what He causes or allows me to experience.
.
He is bigger.
.
Bigger than my concerns, my fears, or my problems. Bigger than my hopes, my plans, or even my wildest dreams. Bigger than what I’ve been through, where I am, or what’s coming in my story.
.
He is bigger.
.
And I am His.
.

We are all guilty as charged. But we have all been pardoned and invited to walk in freedom.
.
Who are your accusers? Who are the naysayers? Who are the negative voices? Who are the ones that seek to remind you of who you were, what you’ve done, or what you’ve gone through?
.
Who are the ones who seek to keep you in chains to what they believe or the assumptions they hold?
.
The ones who hurl threats and insults don’t get to define who you are or who you will be.
.
They don’t have the right. They haven’t paid the price to have the last say.
.
Stop being afraid of their stones.
.
And if you are one of the accusers, put down the rock.
.
Your freedom has already been bought.
.
Refuse the shame. Hold your head up. Stop hiding.
.
It’s time to get on with your life and believe that there is only One voice that matters.
.
He’s not throwing stones.
.
He’s offering you freedom.
.
“For you have been bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body.” 1 Corinthians‬ ‭6:20‬
.
“You were bought with a price; do not become slaves of men.” 1 Corinthians‬ ‭7:23‬ ‭
