~Speak It Out ~

31.August.2025 Wow! It’s already the end of the month, can you believe it? We’re rounding the corner, and cooler weather is on its way, at least for those of us in the warmer parts of the U.S. Get ready to enjoy the shift in seasons! A few months ago, I made a major decision, not…

~Faith That Chooses Life~

30.August.2025 Faith doesn’t deny the existence of a problem, faith denies the problem the right to dominate. You don’t have to feel strong. You don’t even have to feel full of faith. What matters is obedience. What matters is showing up. I will be faithful, regardless of how I feel. “Faith comes by hearing, and…

~The Setback That Becomes Momentum~

29.August.2025 A couple of days ago when I mentioned that the roller coaster not only stopped but backed up to get a running start at the next loop that went upside down, it reminded me of how life with God can sometimes feel. When the enemy has done everything he could to steal, to kill,…

~When Rollercoasters Distract, Only Jesus Heals~

28.August.2025 While I was at the amusement park, I realized something: rollercoasters were numbing the pain for me. For a few minutes, the adrenaline, speed, and thrill distracted me. And the truth is, I was very good at concealing my pain. On the outside I looked fine, smiling, laughing, enjoying the ride. But inside, there…

~Rollercoasters, Reroutes, and Trusting Our Guide~

27.August.2025 Some rollercoasters have a way of surprising you. Just when you think you know what’s coming next, the ride stops, sometimes while you’re upside down, suspended midair, waiting for movement. Other times, the car comes to a complete halt and even backs up before it takes off again, almost like it needs a running…

~Rollercoasters and Growing Faith~

26.August.2025 When my youngest daughter rode her first big rollercoaster, she had never been on a smaller one first. Without those smaller rides to prepare her, she had no gradual growth, no foundation to build excitement or confidence. Instead of enjoying the ride, she felt overwhelmed and afraid. Looking back, I realized it was an…

~Rollercoasters and Calculated Risks~

25.August.2025 Today I spent the day at Magic Mountain, a place that holds a lot of memories for me. As a kid, rollercoasters were a safe way to feel adrenaline in a world where so much felt unsafe. They became my way of saying, “I can face fear and survive it.” That thrill has stayed…

~Strength Beyond Ourselves~

24.August.2025 When the noise is silenced and our hearts are still before Jesus, we often discover that He asks something of us that goes far beyond what we can do in our own strength. His leading will stretch us, challenge us, and sometimes feel impossible. And that is the point. God never intended us to…

~Silencing the Noise~

23.August.2025 In order to hear the voice of Jesus clearly, we must be intentional. His whisper is never drowned out, but our ears grow dull when we let the world, our minds, and even our own doubts clamor for attention. Silencing the noise isn’t just about removing distractions—it’s about choosing what to listen to, recognizing…

~Doing the Unthinkable, Expecting the Impossible~

22.August.2025 True surrender is not casual. It requires laying down the things once held dear, releasing attachments, and committing that nothing tangible will ever again take the throne of the heart. When believers choose to give everything to God, they step into what may feel like the unthinkable. Yet in that very place of surrender, they…
