Do Be: Considerate

1328) We live in an instant world. If we need to “speak” to someone, a few taps on a little screen can make this happen. If we want something, we can order it and a box will greet us within days. Do we need to make an appointment? We can often pull up a calendar

Do Be: Peaceable

1327) No matter where we go, we always leave a shadow. When we come into a room. When we make a comment. When we work with others. In these places, our shadow invades. The question is, what is your shadow made up of? Paul tells us in Titus 3:2 to be peaceable. This word means

Do Be: Doing What is Good

1326) My husband and I are alike in many ways, but there are also many ways we are not. What is a good way to spend an afternoon with me might be writing or sewing while my husband would say dirt biking. Two very different activities. Pointing out these differences is important because of what

Do Be: Obedient

1325) When you hear the word, “obey,” what do you think of? I can’t answer for you, but when I hear the word, I think of children and the expectations we have for them. But, what if the word, “obey,” should immediately conjure up an image of the expectations God has for adults, too.? Paul

Mr. Do-Bee

1324) When I was small, we had a little black-and-white TV in our home. I can remember watching some children’s programs in my pre-school years. One of them was Romper Room. I don’t remember too much about the show, but I can recall a character named Mr. Doo-Bee. This bumble bee would model things we

Are You Too Far Gone?

1323) There are people throughout history who many would appropriately label as evil. If I just focus on those who have lived in my lifetime, the list is dark; people such as, Jim Jones, David Koresh, Jeffery Dahmer, and Charles Manson. Even the list of wickedness found within the last two years would be lengthy,

I am a Failure

1322) I am a perfectionist. As Adrian Monk always said, “It’s a blessing and a curse.” I want things that hang on the wall to be straight. I want the dishwasher to be filled so the maximum amount of dishes can be placed within. I want for my desk to be uncluttered. But, I’m a

Leadership is Difficult

1321) The summer of 1981 was an important time for me. I went with 30 other teens and six leaders on a mission trip focused mostly on Gibraltar. That summer, we did puppet shows, singing, evangelism and more. From time to time, I’ll think about that summer and there is always a smile on my

An Anatomy of the Truth

1320) If you were to study about truth, you would think it would be pretty straight-forward. Something is either true, or it’s not; it cannot be both. Having stated this, we live in a society who believes in what many call, “versions of the truth”. Man is the one who decides if something is true

Too Late

1319) We are living in times when nothing is really “too late.” It is common practice to extend deadlines, grant extensions and offer second chances. Because of this, many have redefined the phrase, “too late.” But, too late, really meaning it, gives direction and accountability. If you mean it when you say it, people adjust.
