Admit it
When's the last time you got real with God? I was talking to Him today and I said, you know what, I'm sorry my prayer life has been lacking (and by this I mean like my prayer closet time with Him). I said, you know, I could sit here and name all kinds of excuses … Continue reading Admit it
Who’s first?
I used to LOVE college football! I can't remember ever missing a game being played on tv. As a matter of fact, I liked it so much that at 18 I decided to get the team logo as a tattoo on my ankle.

FORGIVE
Why is it that when someone does wrong, sometimes even unknowingly, that we (myself included) can't seem to get past it? I mean think about it, if we mess up and everyone is looking at us as if they've sucked on a lemon (nose and mouth twitched up), we want people to have compassion with … Continue reading FORGIVE
