Verse of the Day

The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.

Fearing God

I think that as Christians, sometimes we lose sight of what it actually means to fear God. We are so desensitized by the downpour of sin in our media, that we don't bat a single eyelash when the obscenities of this generation light up the screen. To fear God is more than simply following his precepts. Fearing God also encompasses the act of revering God for who he is and all of his perfect qualities. This week, let us strive to turn our backs to the sin in our lives by filling ourselves more with the presence and words of God. We must be the light for the world, but we can't do that if we're constantly dimming our flame to blend in with the darkness around us.

New Beginnings at Work

Today, I returned to work after a long four week vacation from the organization for which I work. I was so happy to be back and to be reunited with my work family. I play a new role this year; one that is full of uncertainty, but also full of lots of opportunities to grow as a leader. I'm really excited to see where God uses me in this organization, and how much of an impact I can have in the lives of others through him. This is only day one. I pray that as the days continue to pass, I don't lose sight of why I love what I do.

Keep Christ first even in the work place.
