I love when God invades my ordinary world. He uses the most creative things to remind me of His Word and His presence. Like this sign from Justin's football game last week. Since reading this sign, God and I talked something like this: Remember Peter? Yes, Lord. What did he need when he saw Me walking on water to calm his fear? Continue Reading
Stop, Look -n- Listen: Vision
This past weekend, my family and I went to the zoo again. Before we visiting the animals we drove up a mile long curvy road to Will Rogers Shrine. From this monument, we saw the entire city of Colorado Springs. (The Broadmoor Hotel and golf course. There's a reason it's a 5 star, 5 diamond resort, don't you think?)

Stop, Look -n- Listen: Release

When Justin was little he loved balloons, so anytime a restaurant or store employee handed one to him, he was an extra giddy guy.

The morning sunlight hit this picture just right. Look at the same picture now. As I starred at this lighted path, God, by His Spirit, brought his Word to my Continue Reading
