The Government is NOT our savior and looking at it that way will only cause frustration and unrest. Because we don’t have control over other people. Even those who make “promises.” Our faith resides in no man, but Jesus alone. Spewing aggravation is wasted breath, BUT becoming a vessel to intercede on behalf of leaders, [...]

Entitlement is Painful Because It’s Not Guaranteed
This might be a "sacred cow" I'm kicking, but there are so many parents riddled with PAIN based upon the decisions of their adult children and I want to give them the opportunity to be SET FREE! No matter what we've done as a parent, we are never ENTITLED to our children behaving a certain [...]

Worrying About Others?
READY to become a RECOVERING CONTROL FREAK? Life is SO MUCH SWEETER on the OTHER SIDE! Where everyone gets to be exactly who they are and bonus, YOU get to be the REAL YOU! The one God destined YOU to BE! The one who is so full of PEACE and learns how to RESIST those [...]
