Why can’t we all be the same? Part 1

I watched her over a period of time. She was always calm. Always put together. Never losing her cool. I never heard her raise her voice. I prayed to God to give me her grace and patience but some how it just did not work out. I felt sad for my son and wondered if …

LION

I would be a liar to say no music album has ever engrossed me as much as the new Elevation Worship album 'LION' has. If I may be totally honest, I would say that the previous album, 'Old Church Basement' totally rocked and it redefined my personal relationship with Jesus... That's a tale for another …

Time passes and things do change

3 Christmases ago, my son participated in a chair dance competition and he lost to the winner. He cried so much it hurt. That had not been the only time I had seen him cry after losing at a game or sport. I spent the next couple of months telling him at any chance I …
