Last night I sat with my husband and watched a movie. It was no ordinary movie, it was a documentary. While I did not agree with everything that was brought up in it, it did cause me to think and consider a lot of things. In the movie, the narrator has a problem and has no idea how to solve it.

Starting the Week Right with Wisdom
It's the first day of the week and if your like me, you are thinking of all the things that you have to do. The laundry needs to be washed in preparation for the week ahead.

The Power We Have In Prayer
We all have situations in our lives. We have people in our lives that are dealing with health issues, relationship issues, and personal issues. Not only are they dealing with them, but many times we can find ourselves dealing with the same type of issues in our own lives. When we are hit with an issue, one of the first things that we tend to do is stop in our tracks. We wonder what just happened and what did we do to get ourselves into the situation. We try to find out who is to blame and, …
