Financial Blind Spots
One of the things I enjoy most about what I do is helping clients to see things from a different perspective in their financial lives. Often times, we see situations based on our knowledge and experiences, and unfortunately sometimes, that may be limited. We cannot have experienced everything there is – especially if this is […]
I Will Instruct You: Part 2
I Will Instruct You: Part Two Last week as I contemplated what to write about, my Bible opened to Psalm 32. And one of the verses I have underlined is verse eight. I ended up blogging on that topic last week. The next two days those verses appeared yet again in various places. I was […]
I Will Instruct You
Many of us are walking around with unanswered questions. Don’t laugh at me, but, I’ve been using my AI to ask a lot of questions. Often times, it seems to be on point. My AI is the thing that I wished I had all along as I ask it the most random questions, and, it […]
We Bloom at Different Times
I started saying a simple prayer last year. ‘Lord show me what is dead and what is not.’ As Spring approached last year and things I thought for sure were dead, started blooming, I was stunned. This year as the blossoms have started coming in, and I walked through the park, I noticed one particular […]
When the Instructions Do Not Make Sense
This morning my mind felt like a blank slate. No thoughts or words were forming. As I debated which of my Bibles to pick up: the brand new study Bible with lots of extra context or my worn Bible with the 15 year history; my hand reached for the one with history. It felt familiar […]
Are You The CFO of Your Life?
My daughter is taking an elective in school that is called Business Virtual Enterprise. Part of the curriculum is for her and her classmates to create a business and run it. They had to come up with the concept of what service or product they’d be selling, what roles they would play in the company […]
This is Hard!
There are some seasons that I wish I could use my Global Entry access for. If you’re not aware, Global Entry allows you to enter the United States because a pre-clearance has been done and you walk to a kiosk that uses facial recognition, and you walk to the TSA agents and pretty much walk […]
Ye of Little Faith
Many years ago, as I laid in bed, crying at the prospect that my friend would not be able to afford school the next semester – which was fast approaching, I heard a whisper, ‘ye of little faith’. I can now confidently look back and say this was the first time I heard the Lord […]
This is Unexpected…
As I thought of what my topic for today would be, and remembered my week, a few things were brought back to my memory. In some ways, it was a frustrating week. Things that I thought for sure would have happened by now, still have not happened. It feels like disappointment in so many regards. […]
Come to Me… For Rest
Towards the end of 2024, and as we approached 2025, as I started contemplating my words for the year, two became solidified… ‘rest and surrender’ For someone who is and has been a perpetual doer, that instruction seemed foreign. If I think about it, it shouldn’t have been so foreign, because 10 years ago as […]
