A liar that is responsible for so many sleepless nights, bad dreams, pounding hearts, tears, and dread of what tomorrow will bring. “Who is this liar,” you ask? “I would certainly like to know so I can put a stop to him.” I bet you already know. … Continue reading Exposing a Liar →

Often we hear it said, or we say it ourselves, it’s hard to give something to God and let him handle it. We freely admit to holding onto things and not letting God have them. You’ve probably heard this conversation: Person one: “Just give it to God and let Him handle it.” Person two: “It’s … Continue reading "Let Go and Let God… No One Said it Was Easy…Just Necessary."

Why is it that I will push myself to the very limits before I come to the point where I must seek out the Lord? I go and go and push and push until I have absolutely nothing else to give and then I turn to Him.  I wonder sometimes if I am alone in … Continue reading "Stuck In a Rut"

I didn’t really choose the Keto Diet. I know it is the rave and everyone is talking about it, but if you are like me, you are really leery to try any new diets. I mean, come on, how many actually work? So, yeah, when yet another website or blog comes out hosted by this … Continue reading "Healthy fats, protein, net carbs…oh my adventure into Keto."

Recently, I had someone ask me, “What do you do to take care of you?” Well I am going to be honest, I had to struggle with that question for a while before I could find any kind of answer that made any kind of sense. How long had it been since I had taken … Continue reading "Too Blessed to be Stressed….wait, do we really believe that?"

I saw a quote today that I love by A. W. Tozer : “Most Christians don’t hear God’s voice because we’ve already decided we aren’t going to do what He says.” Immediately it just dropped in my spirit that a lot of people say they want to be obedient to God, but that desire only goes as … Continue reading "I want to be obedient God, but only if it feels good."

If every day we had to take a coffee cup out of the cabinet and write on it what our day would be like, what would your coffee cup say? Oh, why Lennie, my coffee cup would look just like this one and it would say, It is going to be a good day, a … Continue reading "What would your coffee cup say?"

I walked into the office on January 2nd, back again fresh from the holidays, ready to face the New Year. “Hi, welcome back.” My boss said. “Ugh.” I replied. (Such is our normal routine conversation.) Then I laid my stuff down on the desk and thought, “Really Lennie? Where is your positive? You can do … Continue reading "Finding your positive….you can do it."
