Wherever you go there you are.....


You can't get away from it. Hindsight is 20/20. You can spend your life wishing and hoping, but that won't get you there. You can live the dream, but that won't get you there. We all have, aspirations, things we want more than anything.

Dreams are funny though, and perfect doesn't exist. There is no perfect job, perfect house, perfect school, perfect neighborhood, or anything else. We are flawed and our creations are flawed. You might find little bits of perfection if you look closely, but that is not humanity. In creating us in his image God did something amazing and wonderful. In creating us in his image he showed us a little bit of perfection. Oh sure you and I are flawed, but each of us has a glimmer of the divine.

So if you stop looking back and start looking at where you are you might find that it is a little bit perfect. We can't fathom the future and the past is behind us. All we have is the moment. So stop in the moment and grab your little piece of perfection before it is gone!

I AM


I AM: afraid of what tomorrow might bring.
I AM: lost in a world spinning out of control.
I AM: a sinking ship of doubts and fears.
I AM: always surprised by the unexpected.
I AM: living proof.

He is the way the truth and the light.

Psalm 119: 105
Your word is a lamp to my feet
and a light for my path.

I will look to the light, put one foot in front of the other, and follow the path. The past is behind me and the future holds my savior. There can be no greater joy than a life lived for his purpose. I will walk through my doubts, my fears, and my confusion. I will use the road map of his word, and the example of Christ and someday I will get there...............................

For I AM: His, bought with the blood of Christ. There is nothing greater that I can ever be!
