Excerpts from my Adventures with God
When all is said and done And our life draws to a close, It will not matter how far we’ve come If nothing that’s Christ-like shows. It’s what we’ve become that matters… It’s who we are in Christ It’s how near we’ve come to His image And what Jesus would think of our lives. God…
Tall buildings surround my office which makes parking extremely limited. I park at the cheapest lot within a reasonable distance that has available spots. That is until I left town for six weeks. Before leaving, I turned in my parking pass so I would not be charged. Little did I realize what would be happening…
Today people will dress in green, maybe wear a shamrock or two, and whistle an Irish Jig. But I wonder, how many of those people know what St. Patrick’s day is all about? How many people know that it is commemorating something more than green shamrocks and being Irish? How many people know who St.…
You look down into a face. It’s dirty, snotty, serious. Surrounding the face is a mess of hair. You know lice may be in that hair. And who knows where the rubber boats they wear have been. Probably running through animal manure or worse. Their clothing has dirt on it. This is what hits your…
Two roads lay before us each and every day. The question we must choice with everything we do: which one will we travel. That was the thought in my mind as I sat next to this sign on my way to work. It fit with the lingering thoughts of the past few days since I…

“Two little lines I heard one day, Traveling along life’s busy way; Bringing conviction to my heart, And from my mind would not depart; Only one life, ’twill soon be past, Only what’s done for Christ will last. Only one life, yes only one, Soon will its fleeting hours be done; Then, in ‘that day’…
Motivation. It has not been happening in my life recently. This is rather annoying because my last devotion at STEP Advanced was on not getting distracting when they went home but getting busy with the things that they knew they needed to do. And yet here I am, I came home almost two weeks ago…
Earlier this week I had the opportunity to photography Lighthouse Event’s Snowball Shootout 10k race. It was a dream course for a photographer. The start line, one mile mark, 3.1 mile turn around spot, 4.1 mile mark, and finish line were within one hundred feet of each other. You could shoot the start, walk fifty…
