Stillness Requires Vision
Everything that's human about us requires more than just staying in the same spot. We are eager to move on to the next big thing and usually we have it all planned out in our heads. This is why it's frustrating when God calls us to a season of waiting and praying. However, deeply tucked inside the waiting for whatever comes next, bubbles hope....
Finding the “Still” Inside the Storm…
Then they cry out to the Lord in their trouble, and He brings them out of their distresses. 29 He calms the storm, so that its waves are still. 30 Then they are glad because they are quiet; so He guides them to their desired haven. -Psalm 107:28-30 I wish I could say you will have everything you've ever desired, I can't.

Like so many other appointments gone wrong, the treatment wasn't working and I couldn't wish away the pink grave stone in the cemetery down the...
The Day I Fell Out of the Raft (Literally)
When I was in my early twenties we went whitewater rafting. We didn't have a whole lot of money, so we opted to go without a guide. You know, because we're smart that way...
