I shared this on Sunday briefly but I have been stuck on the scripture in Genesis 1:2 where it talks about the Spirit hovering over the deep. ‘The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the…
Just like probably everyone else, I have been lamenting and even been angered about what is currently going on in this country. My brain has been crammed full of statistics, news stories, and opinions. Imagine a hoarder’s house overrun with garbage, junk, and newspapers. I am pretty sure that’s what the inside of my head…
I’ve been reading (for the 2nd time) a book by Tozer called Alive in the Spirit. He wrote something that stood out to me concerning the person of the Holy Spirit and how we miss the point when we don’t seek out a relationship with Him. We ask for the gifts of the Spirit like…
We just spent a vacation at Myrtle Beach and I tried to spend some time writing ideas for messages, blogs and such, waiting for God to point me in whatever direction He had in mind, and when He did I admit I was a bit confused, but here goes. Pancakes. Yep, pancakes. The highway here…

Sometime last fall during our drought in East Tennessee, I had heard on the news that the birds were in desperate need of places to clean their feathers. Due to all of the brush fires in the surrounding area, their feathers were covered in ash. Doing my part as a bird lover, I dug out…
Have we lost the ability to be reverent in our daily walk? This is a question that I pose to myself at times. It all began one morning as I was casually lounging during my prayer time with a cup of coffee and talking AT God instead of to Him. For some reason, it occurred…
