The Ultimate Resolution (Revised Reissue 2026)

 You will never be comfortable with change until you become uncomfortable in your mess. 


It's not unusual for most to find themselves laser-focused on personal goals or resolutions for the new year. I have felt the nudge to write a few words on the subject of change and how uncomfortable it can make you feel. Especially in the beginning. It will never not be worth it though. 


I couldn't help but think of anyone and everyone who may be trying to function without a purpose or a plan. Those whose lives are stuck in a perpetual state of emptiness. 


Do you know someone who fits this description?


Entertaining the idea of change can honestly be unsettling. Even to the strongest individual. 


But, you'll always need Jesus. And if you've never met Him personally, you've not yet known the difference He can make. So many refuse to accept Him due to the shame they carry concerning their sin. It's never the easiest thing to admit the need for His help, either. 


Maybe you're in a place of hiding away within your mess because you have ultimately decided not to deal with it. Maybe you've never felt good enough. 


Jesus will forever be willing to come up into the worst of your mess; no matter what you've done or where you've been. You will never be worthy of His amazing grace, but He felt that you were worth dying for on that cross. 

 You will always be precious in His sight.

If you haven't yet trusted in Him for salvation, everything about your life will remain and come to an eventual close as a dead-end situation. The matter of your eternal residence needs to be dealt with right now as tomorrow is never promised. 


If you were to pass away tonight, are you 100% sure that you would be in Heaven? There's only one way to know without a doubt and that is by placing faith in Jesus and accepting Him as your personal Savior. 


"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life; no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." (John 14:6)








The Bible Way to Heaven


We Are All Sinners: "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." (Romans 3:23)


We Were Sent A Savior: "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8)


We Were Supplied A Gift: "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." (Romans 6:23)


We Can Simply Call: "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Romans 10:13)

Things To Remember When You Feel Like Quitting On God

Having the opportunity to serve the Lord through writing faith-based short stories and devotionals will forever be my greatest joy.  I have traveled along on the writing journey for about ten years now, yet it would be untruthful to tell you that I've never felt like quitting.  I know I have.  Have you ever felt that way? Are you in a season of distraction or discouragement?  The Lord placed this thought and those questions on my heart because I know that many others who remain faithful in serving the Lord in their own respective way are met with same opposition from Satan.  Sometimes it's difficult for you not to feel distracted and discouraged---as if the joy that you once held in your heart is somehow nowhere to be found. The good news is that while opposition will never go away on this side of Heaven, there are things to remember and tools that we can use to fight off those fiery darts and keep on keepin' on! (One of my all time favorite phrases) Today, I wa...

The Price of Sin Will Never Be Worth It

There doesn't seem to be anything in this world that isn't crazy expensive.  The shortages that have come upon us through the past three years have just begun to escalate; it is becoming harder to have our basic needs met. The quality of everything that we've known and loved just isn't the same anymore.  And what you're being sold is never worth the hefty price you pay. This thought has hung around in my head for some time. I read and observe a lot. I can't help but take notice of this gradual acceptance of evil. Society is being continuously groomed to make light of something that is no joke.  Hollywood paints the picture of Hell as a place that is one big party where everyone will be able to freely continue their life of sin. The presence of evil here on Earth is welcomed, encouraged, and accepted. The Bible vehemently warns against doing so.  " Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put...

A Time To Reset (New Years 2026)

I have kept this thought on my heart for a while now (honestly even before Christmas celebrations ever began) & I have pondered over where to even start with it but I do sometimes make writing for the Lord too technical. The best of what He has given me has only ever come from the heart. ❤️ Have you ever dealt with a laptop that just won't cooperate?  I cannot begin to tell you how many seasons of laptops that I have lived through in the four years of college and 10+ years of writing. They all eventually meet the exact same fate:  Pages won't load as efficiently. The battery won't keep its charge. The smallest task becomes its greatest challenge.  However, the most agonizing death for a computer is to have a virus absolutely consume the entire operating system, effectively rendering the device completely unusable.  At that point it becomes necessary to attempt a factory reset. It essentially wipes your operating system completely clean & provides it with a mu...
