We Are Not In Control

How often have you been in a family gathering and the dog won't stop jumping on people? or been in the grocery store seeing someone elses kids run and scream in the lanes?  These are easy times for us to feel reminded that we are not in control of the world around us!
God knows that we are only in control of ourselves...and sometimes that is even a challenge for us as humans.  We can control, to an extent, what goes in....and what goes out.  That which we hear, see, say, and touch, (and taste)--which i guess would cover drugs n alcohol.

Exploring Your Spiritual Gifts

Spiritual Gifts: We all have different talents that can be used in glorifying the Creator. You could also look at this as: "what am I good at, that can be used to help others, church, or community?"

The beginning of a Journey: Christmas 2009

What better time to start a blog about a spiritual journey than Christmas!
The season of Advent is the beginning of the Christian calendar, where we all start reading and hearing stories about the preparation for the Birth of Christ. As we are remember this beginning, it is a perfect time for reflection about the birth of our own spiritual journey. Perhaps you are just beginning, preparing for your own resolutions, or maybe you are in the midst of the spiritual journey you started long ago.
