    Though I have fallen, I will rise. Though I sit in darkness, the LORD will be my light. Micah 7:8 I'm in a season of falling. Actually, that's kind of normal for me. I'm known for tripping over curbs, falling down stairs... I even fell over a tombstone once. But that's a story for another time.

        I’m studying Numbers – rumored to be one of the most boring books in the Bible.   Actually, I think Leviticus might win that honor. I’ll tell you later – I’m reading it next.   Surprisingly, I found a few gems in Numbers. I know, shocked me, too.   I never thought about this too much but, every time Israel packed up to move during their time in the desert, they had to… Read More

    Photo Credit: Kelley Bozarth via Unsplash photos "The people living in darkness have seen a great light." Matthew 4:16 What an absolutely breathtaking picture! A spark in the darkness. Jesus is the spark that awakened our hearts and drew us to Him. Ever wonder how many people you meet each day are walking in darkness? Some stumble in the blackness of sin and need the light only Jesus can bring. We might be the spark that… Read More
