15 The Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it. (Genesis 2:15) The environment matters to God.

(Ephesians 2:8-9) We are in constant need of grace reminders. It is so critical that we refresh our mind with such thoughts. Within the context of grace, Jesus … Continue reading End of You and The Start of Him →

I was listening to comedian Aziz Ansari speak on success in his profession and something he said struck me. Aziz actually feels better about his art when his comedy is bombing than when the entire audience is laughing. He explained that when he fails, he knows it is because he didn't play it safe and … Continue reading What Aziz Ansari Taught Me About Risk →

Lord, you were favorable to your land;     you restored the fortunes of Jacob. 2 You forgave the iniquity of your people;     you covered all their sin.          (Selah) 3 You withdrew all your wrath;     you turned from your hot anger.  (Psalm 85:1-3) I woke up frustrated today. Well actually the frustration came when I did something out of character … Continue reading Facebook, Anger, and Why I Need Coffee →
