Words of encouragement for your everyday (walking-around-kind-of) life.
People go through their everyday life without realizing that Jesus is right there with them every step of the way, every step of the day. We need words of encouragement.
He (Jesus) wants to be involved in your everyday life to help you live life to its fullest, the way He intended it, so that you can have an impact in your own part of the world. Your business world, family world, and personal world. Now that’s Words of Encouragement. So be it.
Jesus isn’t waiting to show up.
He’s there, waiting for you to acknowledge Him.

How Big Are Your Needs
There were times when I wondered how I was ever going to get through “it.” Between jobs, between financial crises, and just general hardships of life. Where in the world was the money going to come from? So, how big are your needs? I had to make sense (not cents) of it in my head.…
From Chaos to Clarity
There is busy, and then there is chaos. Life feels chaotic sometimes. Not just a full calendar, but a full mind. And not just responsibility, but pressure pulling from every direction. Work. Family. Leadership. Expectations. Moments that matter… all happening at once. And then those surprise events happen, and we find ourselves reacting. And if…
The Word Became Flesh
John 1:1–3, 14 (NIV)“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through Him all things were made; without Him nothing was made that has been made… The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us.” He has risen!…
The Grass Is Greener But…
“Maybe it would be better over there.” You may have seen my post back in November of 2025, on The Grass is Greener. Well, this is part 2. “The grass is greener but…” doesn’t mean we are in the wrong place. It just means the grass isn’t greener where we are. We might think that…
The Same Road
Two people can walk the same road. Read the same books. Hear the same truth. Sit in the same rooms. And still… end up in completely different places. It doesn’t seem to make sense at first. If the inputs are the same, shouldn’t the outcomes be the same? Same road, so why not the same…
Running on Empty
Some weeks, you, like me, may notice it quietly. Not a dramatic collapse. Not burnout in flames. Just… tired. The kind of tired that settles into your bones after long seasons of responsibility, decisions, conversations, building things, leading people, caring for others, and trying to do it well. You know, as Jackson Brown would say,…

Personal Growth
Every writing on this site includes personal growth. But some of the writings are geared to you personally, and not necessarily business or family, but about you being better at being you – who God designed you to be.
Family
A lot of the writings here have great family applications, but some are directly related to family. Family is where it all starts, whether it’s with parents, siblings, children or relatives…or even the ‘church’ family. Family is where it all starts.
Walking with Jesus
Our everyday is and should be a day in which we are always walking with Jesus. Devotionals in this category are usually related directly to walking with Jesus though always will fit in any of the other categories. This category is really what this blog site is about – learning to acknowledge and grow in our every-day-walking-around-kind-of-life with Jesus, every step of the way.
Business
I’ve been a part of a faith-based business system for over 17 years now – it’s hard for me to not write something that can’t be used and paralleled to your business or work-life. Some of the writings are very direct about the application to business or work. All universal principles applied to business or life have their roots in God, in scripture. Nothing new has been created.
