The Unique View

  There is a gospel song that comes to mind when I think about, staying power. I goes like this: It's another day's journey and I'm glad) I'm glad about it, (I'm glad), I'm glad about it, (I'm so glad), I'm glad about it). (It's another day's journey and I'm glad), I'm glad about it, I'm so glad to be here. (You know I've got my health and strength and I'm glad), I'm glad about it, (I'm so glad), I'm glad about it (I'm so glad), I'm glad about it. (You know I've got my health and strength and I'm glad), I'm glad about it, I'm so glad to be here. I'm so glad. I'm so glad to be here. Yes, I can say that I am glad to be here.   Even though I feel as if my life being turned upside down, I am still glad.   Since my last post, I have been working hard to keep myself out of the dark hole of depression and anxiety. I owe it all to God first and foremost, wit...

The past few weeks have been trying. Death and illnesses go hand in hand, but a sudden death with no warning is catastrophic. One day it is all smiles and laughter, the next, devastation. We can make many plans, but who really knows what tomorrow holds? Jesus. It saddens me when I watch and hear people who do not walk in the obedience of Christ, instead they are caught up in who wrote the Bible and failing to focusing on the message for living and applying wisdom living to be a better people.

I am not interested in pretending that I have done everything on my own. I have less tolerance for people who scheme, beg, and live life as if there is nothing greater on the other side of hardships. Though I strive daily to be better than I was the day before, though I evaluate my life, and slowly work on things to make my life better, I cannot ex...

With the recent tragedy in Charleston, SC, I am sure millions are still processing how a young man or anyone for that matter can walk into a church and kill innocent people. It does not matter what their reason may be, it is just something we here in American have not fully experience.  Let’s continue to keep the families and the community in our prayers In third world countries the mass killings of Christians is known and felt, but not here in America. The media coverage is full of many stories where men, woman, and children are running for their lives all because they believe in Jesus Christ and profess their beliefs as Christians. My heart goes out to these families. I could not imagine this type of dreadful and horrendous persecution. Acts 9:1-2 in the New Living Translations says, Meanwhile, Saul was uttering threats with every breath and was eager to kill the Lord’s followers. So he went to the high priest. He requested letters addressed to the synagogues in D...
