  • Accomplishing Vision

    We have to celebrate when we accomplish our vision. We have to take some time to celebrate all that God has allowed us to do. We have to evaluate where we were when we began the journey and look at the growth that has taken place. We have to praise God for allowing us to…

  • Keeping Vision

    Vision can often get fuzzy while in the heat of battle. Our temporary frustrations combined with our desire for comfort can often prohibit us from seeing our vision.

  • Making Vision

    “Don’t exchange short term contentment for long term vision.” This was a quote that I found in my quiet time journal from several months ago. It was completely Spirit given!  Many times we exchange our God given vision for a quick solution to a problem. We settle for what we think will make our lives…

    There’s nothing like spending Christmas with the people we love! This Christmas is a little (a lot) different for me. Not only am I getting to spend Christmas at home, I’m also preparing to spend Christmas with my wife! I have no idea what we will do for Christmas, but I do know that we…
