Who Am I?

Have you mistakenly thought the wrong thing about someone? Have you misidentified their personality, their makeup, their character? What did you do once you discovered your mistake? Did you correct your opinion of them? Did you change how you reacted to them? We can mistakenly misidentify a person’s character. Perhaps they present an initial impressionContinue reading “Who Am I?”

Bless and Curse

Do you know of anything that accomplishes opposites in the blink of an eye? Can a pump switch from oil to water that quickly? Can a flower go from dying to thriving that quickly? Can a car go from 0 to 60 with the snap of the fingers or vice versa? The answer is noContinue reading “Bless and Curse”

Tongue of Fire

Have you said things you regret later? Were you able to recover and correct it later? Were they divisive and hateful words? Were you able to ask for forgiveness and reconcile later?

Ask Out of Love

Dead or Active

What do you put your faith in? Do you have faith in material things or a job? Who do you put your faith in? Do you put your faith in your parents, spouse, children, or friends?
