My life has been one of journeys.  Hasn’t everyone’s?  I’m talking about some ‘outside the box’ journeys.  When I was 19 turning 20, I spent 3 months in Trinidad/Tobago working with missionaries.  Even though it was so very long ago, I’ll never forget the experience, the people, the ministry – also, the humongous creepy-crawly things…

There are so many Worship Songs that we have been blessed by over the past several years.  But there are also some that never should have been written, and certainly never passed along to churches to be included in, especially, a morning worship service.  There is one song, in my opinion, that I wish had…

Since the trajectory of Love From Above Ministries changed from doing concerts in churches and other venues, I have had relatively little-to-no involvement with music.  I couldn’t ever have imagined not being able to sing.  I worked hard learning all the skills during my college years to develop a two and a half octave range…

His Amazing Grace  “He is Risen!  He is Risen Indeed!”  Thank You, Jesus!! 

As I began to think of so many around me, both friends and family members — what I am writing here is probably nothing I could share with them.  As a matter of fact, I really couldn’t think of anyone whom I know, and know of their family situation, that I could easily say these…

You may not believe this, but February is not only ‘Love’ month, but it is also Nat’l Cancer Prevention Month, Nat’l Fasting Month, Self-Check Month and Enrolled Agents Month.  Other days of observation in February are Free and Open Source Software Month (what?!), American Heart Month, An Affair to Remember Month (again, what?!), President’s Month,…

I had read every bit of information that had been given me and had diligently listened to several medical assistants explain to me the recovery process of an arthroscopic procedure I would need.  I knew that there would be at least a six-week healing process involved including physical therapy twice a week.  I knew all…

“For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given” – Isaiah 9.6a — a familiar verse – one set to song – seen on many Christmas cards.  I love best the old, ‘tried and true’ Christmas carols.  I love ‘Silent Night’ composed in 1818 by Franz Xaver Gruber to lyrics by…

The Apostle Paul says in Ephesians 3.2 –  “If indeed you have heard of the administration of God’s grace which was given to me for you;”    And on such a small, small level, I believe the administration of God’s grace was given to me for the ‘helpless and the hopeless’ – ‘the least of these’…

I have long observed – not judged – but just observed the lifestyle of Christians and where they seem to be comfortable in their walk with Christ.  Some are what I call ‘sold-out-to-Jesus Christ’ Christians.  Some are satisfied with becoming a church officer, Sunday School teacher, musician, take-up-the-offering-person, committee member, etc.  Some are nominal Christians,…
