Just a Thought: He's Here. You're Forgiven

I’ve been thinking a lot about forgiveness recently. I’ve misunderstood it for a long time; for the sake of being “humble,” I’ve often attempted to just let offenses pass by. If I ignore it, it just goes away, right? What was an attempt at strength in the face of adversity, to count others as more important than myself, was actually a subconscious message to myself saying, “ I have less value or dignity than those around me. ” This way of life builds tension in your spirit a

Christ is Better: Remembering What the Gospel Saves Us From

“Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, but in these last days He has spoken to us by His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He created the world. He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of His nature, and He upholds the universe by the word of His power. After making purification for sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, having become as much superior to angels a

Be Blessed: Love Your Enemies

Few teachings of Jesus are as radical—or as freeing—as His command to love our enemies in the Sermon on the Mount: " You heard it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you love those who love you, what reward do you h

ABOUT ME

I'm a young believer in Christ with a message to share. I've found that the best way to do so is take you through what I'm learning and growing in, the things occupying my mind. My hope is that some of these words might encourage or inspire you to love God and to love those around you, as we in Christ are called to do. All I hope for is that my readers would get to know Jesus as He truly is, rather than the image of evil or apathy or indifference or tyranny that's infected the minds of those who run from Him.

I hope to encourage conversation before condemnation. Peace before pride. Sympathy before cynicism. Brotherhood and sisterhood before isolation. A love of the Word before a love of the world. The Church needs to turn back to the Word of God, living according to its teachings and producing fruit. I hope I can provide some direction and that I'd invite some loving discourse in the process.

"The aim of our charge is love which issues from a pure heart and good conscience and a sincere faith." This reminder that Paul writes to Timothy has gripped my heart and guided my relationship to this gift. I pray that I'd honor it well.

Be blessed.

Waiting doesn’t mean God is absent.
It’s often where He’s doing His deepest work.

Psalm 27 reminds us that confidence isn’t found in clarity or control, but in the character of God. When circumstances feel dark, we’re invited not to panic or retreat—but to wait, to trust, and to take courage.

Full reflection now live on Substack.
Be strong. Take courage. Wait on the LORD.

Be Blessed.

What shapes your day—the world around you, or the One who made it? Psalm 1 offers a way to stand steady, no matter the season. Blessedness is a choice.

Be Blessed.

Forgiveness isn’t pretending the weight isn’t there.
It’s trusting that Christ already carried it.

As Christmas approaches, may we stop clinging to what no longer defines us—and walk in the freedom He purchased.

He’s here. You’re forgiven.

Be Blessed.

Jesus,

You are better.
Better than the old way.
Better than our striving.
Better than our fear.

Write Your truth on our hearts again.
Steady our confidence in You.
Pull us away from drifting back.
Draw us near.

Teach us to hold fast.
Teach us to encourage.
Teach us to stay ready
as the Day draws near.

Keep us faithful.
Keep us eager.
Keep us close.
Amen.

—

Be Blessed.
