Today’s Scripture: Matthew 16:23 ESV: But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me. For you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of man.” Bouncing back and forth between Matthew 16 and Luke 9 this morning I witness how our minds can be worlds apart in an instant. When we look ... Continue Reading »
I am out of my mind
Today’s Scripture: Mark 3:21 ESV: And when his family heard it, they went out to seize him, for they were saying, “He is out of his mind.” If the world and those around us think we are out of our mind we may be where we want to be.

I judge not
Today’s Scripture: Matthew 7:1 ESV: “Judge not, that you be not judged. This is a great time to remind you that these affirmations are NOT who I AM but who I desire to become.
