8 Reasons Facebook is Female Porn

I feel like a drug addict in rehab. This is day 2 of 30 (baby steps) of removing the Facebook app off my phone. The twitching will start at any time. Having to walk to our home office to actually log on to Facebook on a desktop computer has been quite the experience. The daily [&hellip

Call This Mom

When Lindsey and I first met, we knew we had one specific, common ground, the obvious one, the one that brought us together. Anyone who knows me, knows I talk a lot for guy and anyone who knows my lovely bride, knows, well… She talks a lot for a girl. From hello, we never struggled [&hellip

Thank You, God, For the Rain

He covers the sky with clouds; he supplies the earth with rain and makes grass grow on the hills. Psalm 147:8 I glanced out the window at the dark clouds and pouring down rain trying to remember why I had picked a spot so far from the door. The big red umbrella that would have [&hellip

The Lie I Almost Bought

My eyes were brimming and I had nothing to catch the slow motion cascade that was coming. I’ve never been more thankful for sunglasses that know just how to hide the hurt. As I drove home, this unexpected release was evidence of a storm on the inside. A shaky “help,” escaped my lips as the [&hellip

Puddles

How does a heart survive a storm? I certainly don’t know how. A storm can stomp a heart, shatter it even, but it is possible for a heart to break and still survive. This I know with every thread of my soul. This I know. This is not a post about God picking up the [&hellip

So here we are, the closing of our special day. Something I hope to write about one day. It was perfect… for us! We were now married! We sent the doves into flight and got into the car and headed to Dallas to make our exit from the country! Gabe and I were sharing stories [&hellip

A Sprinkle of Perfect Days

Not sure if your family is like mine but it seems to be the case in mine that someone wakes up on the wrong side of the bed every day. Whether it is one of my beautiful, full of life, full of energy, ready to explore the entire world in a millisecond, children. To my [&hellip

I Need More (Her Side)

After Scott passed away, my house was filled with friends and family for months. I literally had someone visit me, eat with me, drop off food, spend the night, cry with me, or just sit in silence with me every single day for three and a half months. The love, help and support were incredible [&hellip

I Need More

When I first met my wife, I was in love. I was in a relationship that I wanted to give my whole life to something. I was in no place to love another woman. I was perfectly content, happy, in love with what I had… I was lying there with my back on the ground, [&hellip

…As Charged.

I got a message from a dear friend today and it struck something in me… Something that has become my way of life. It affects me. It affects just about everyone. ”I wish I had done this.” ”I wish I had done that.” ”I wish I had said this or that.” ”I wish I were [&hellip
