And in that moment, when reality begins to hit, when the ground slows to stop,
Then and only then, do you begin to see the end of your hope?
Do you see the birth of your promise slain in the road?
The “Blessing”

How to Transform Regret into Growth
To be honest, I lived in regret for the next day or two wondering, “What if?” When I decided to leave regret, I was freed from it. But as soon as I decided to redeem the next step and work on my confidence, I grew from it.
Anchor for my Soul
I sat in the drivers seat of my parents Toyota Sequoia, completely overwhelmed and utterly despondent. My body betrayed me as tears began to spill down my cheeks. My hunched shoulders trembled as I gasped for the next breath, in direct conflict to the strong, resolute image I had predetermined to uphold. “This wouldn’t have […]
The Game
Listen up. I’m going to be completely transparent here. I give up far too easily. Not in all things, but in things I’m not familiar with or things that aren’t set in stone and especially in matters of the heart. Its as if I count myself down and out before the game has already begun. It […]
Updates!
So I have been a little lackadaisical with my blog writing but for good reason. I started to submit some of my writing to online blogs and christian online magazines. I started this process about 6 weeks ago and since then have been dealing with a slew of rejected works. Either they send me the polite auto response, or even worse, […]
If You Only Knew…
Its been a while. Hows it hanging? I’ll address my absence in a later post but I couldn’t let Passion week (Holy week) pass without writing about what God has revealed to me. I was in class last night and we happened to be studying the life and death of Jesus this week. Reading through […]
My Enlistment
Dear young Christian Men,First and foremost I want to say thank you. Thank you for choosing to follow Christ each day. Thank you for dedicating your life to his cause. Thank you for keeping yourself pure even though your “boys” thought you were crazy. Trust me, that doesn’t go unnoticed. Thanks for holding doors, giving […]
I am human
I am human. I forget. I neglect my bible, the words of my Savior, my Lover, My God. Yet another man’s font readily fills my thoughts because my heart need not reply. You call me in, wooing me with your goodness but I am easily distracted. I am stuck in a deadly trapeze act: on […]
The Desires of My Heart
I want to experience God’s glory like Moses did. I want to be bathed in his goodness and warmed by his kindness. I want to know Him. To lay my eyes upon my Savior is my hearts desire. I long to sit enraptured by His grace, astounded by His beauty and covered in the blood […]
The Story
“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty” The son of God hung on a cross for me. He bled and died so that I could receive freedom. I can’t imagine the emotion God the Father felt that day. I can only imagine a pained gaze at His son. The cries of His son rang through […]
Sexy Christians
“I have absolutely nothing to wear,” I thought as my gloomy eyes scanned my closet hoping that behind the pile of reject clothes there would be an outfit modest enough but still modern and stylish to wear to church. Nothing worked. For some reason I couldn’t find something I thought people would deem appropriate for church. Either […]
Dear Younger Me…
There is so much I wish you knew back then. But then again I’m not sure you wold have been ready for it. I want you to know first and foremost that when you scoured over books about teen dating you shouldn’t skip the part where it says a relationship with God trumps anything with […]
Came to my Rescue
3 mins is the suggested time to share a short testimony. I’m gonna break that record with a 5 second testimony but a more powerful story. I was born and raised in a Christian home. I always believed God was real but didn’t think I was enough for him. I wasn’t ready for him. I […]
New ideas
I have decided to start a Q&A day on my blog. Every Monday you all can submit questions you would like answered or topics you would like to read about. I will do my best to answer them. Obviously I will continue to post random happenings and deep thinking but this is a way I can connect with you all […]
My Dream
Just wanted to share with you all what my dream for my life is. I wrote this a while ago and felt a need to put it up on the blog today. I encourage you all to write down your dream whether it be big or small because this little piece of my conviction to become what i was […]
Jesus = Beautiful
Beauty has many faces. It is difficult to define objectively. Anything beautiful reflects the glory of God in some way and inspires us to worship. With that description in mind, the most obvious object of beauty that comes to mind is Christ. He defines and demonstrates true beauty. And not because he was easy on […]
