One day… Psalm 103:1-5 Bless the Lord, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless His holy name!  Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases, Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies, Who satisfies your mouth...

Two days… I’ve shared a little bit about losing my daughter Courtney to stillbirth.  It’s been more than 16 years.  Her birthday was July 2nd.  Even after all these years, it was a difficult day.  Age 16 represents a coming of age for girls.  Sweet 16 parties, dating, and driving are obsessions for girls of that age.  When that day came and...

Six days… Psalm 57: 7 My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast; I will sing and give praise.  (N.K.J.V.) When something is steadfast, it is firm.  It cannot be shaken.  In this culture, I cannot think of much that is steadfast.  We live in an age where constant change breeds excitement, in a place where people desperately want to...
