We’ve all heard the saying: “When life gives you lemons make lemonade”. I think it’s pretty cute and all, but it’s one thing to say something and another thing to actually turn it into reality. “Making lemonade” literally is pretty simple. Get some water, toss in some sugar, squeeze in some fresh lemons and there […] Read more…
Jesus could have come and healed Lazarus when he was still alive. Instead, He waited to raise him from the dead when he was already in his grave. God could have made David become king the day after he was anointed. Instead, He waited 15 years to rise to the throne, many of those years […] Read more…
There’s few things worst in this world then being stood up by someone you care about. Then being rejected or ignored by someone you love.

There’s a fad going around in the average teenager’s world on facebook that really got to me last year. Although it’s new to the facebook world… it has existed long before facebook. What is it exactly? It’s the constant desire of people (beginning in their young years) to have the approval and validation of others. […] Read more…
Nobody grows up dreaming to be a janitor when they grow up. Cleaning toilets in the back where nobody will notice. Nobody stands in long lines outside of studios waiting for a chance to become someone working in the backstage before the show. Nobody gives up years of their life to chase the dream of […] Read more…
I’ve been there more than once before. Thinking the road has finally cleared and I’ve found my way out. But instead I was facing another dead end.
