Simple Truths Blog
As "authentic" Christians, we are to live in this world without being OF this world. Sometimes..no, MOST of the time, it's a battle. A battle against self and the enemy. Choosing to fight worldly desires. Fighting the temptation to do what everybody else is doing. (Because..Hey..it couldn't be THAT bad if everybody is doing it...right???...WRONG.) …

I have started several posts and even have 11 in the "draft" or unpublished phase. It's just not their time to be posted yet. As I was sitting with my family..I felt the urge to write the poem below. I used to write poetry a lot, but it has been a long time. My hope …

As I was exercising on my treadmill (yay me!!), I had my earphones in and was listening to some awesome praise and worship music. It is a wonder that I didn't fall off. Picture it : Treadmill...Music...Caught up in worshipping my Redeemer..hands raised...eyes closed...it was beautiful. Thank goodness. 🙂 Believe me, it could have …

It has been three weeks since my last post!! That's not to say that I haven't had anything to share. No, quite the opposite actually. The funny thing is that I actually began writing one to share earlier this week...but it isn't what was put on my heart to share today. Do you like to …

You probably are wondering why in the world I chose the title above. Truth is, I didn't. In fact, I woke up around 3 A.M. and God gave me this title. So, here we go. Never say never. The "objects" that you are seeing occur in other people's lives can very easily occur in yours …
