The Lyrics From Billy's Forest Chapter Thirty Two

I am a Poet. One that happens to write in a forest. As of late. I've been called to write inside a special collection of trees at the Billy Graham Library in Charlotte NC. In chapter thirty two. The focus is put on how we allow thoughts to travel. Most are shoved aside. When in fact God gives us thoughts to inspire us to move forward.

Success Fath And Hope

If you were given the chance to answer this question: What is life? How would you proceed to reply? Do the paths we walk teach or take away? Learning to put energy in the right places is a great place to start. But then you bump into a tree. It never moves. And yet it's so grateful to the sun.

Passing A Note to Your Future Self

We endlessly say it "I must do this." After a while the must's in our life become mountains. What you must have done to get to where you have grown. Is it possible that it was the lack of trusting the must that kept you from realizing a dream?

The Lyrics From Billy's Forest Chapter Thirty One

I am a Poet. One that just happens to write in a forest. As of Late. I've been called to a special circle of trees at the Billy Graham Library in Charlotte NC. In Chapter Thirty One we talk about the way Taker's believe they are only receiving what we are giving, They see nothing wrong with being a Taker. As long as you have what they need. How then do you take from Christ? Do you bring to Jesus just as much as he is delivering?

A Day Of Doubt

The words hit me harder than the morning sunrise. This will be your Day Of Doubt. I asked God several times for a reconfiguration of thought. Only to realize it was to be worn as well as learned from.

The Path Maker

Are we truly on a path? Or is it the bosses wish and commands that make up your visions? Gaining the strength to stand up straight isn't going against company policy. Not utilizing the gifts God gave you is the misunderstanding.

Overcoming Business Breakdowns

I'm amazed at how many people are walking through malls and parks with their shoulders slumped over. And you can't blame it on the smart phone. Employees need to be motivated to walk straight. They need to be influenced to trust in greater creations. But that's not how the ball is bouncing. If what you get at work is your mindset at home. How can you begin to think you can lead your own life?

Speaking The Street In 3D

Emails, blogging, texting and even Twitter. We know what we're trying to say. But those receiving it have their defenses up. How can we materialize great communication if everybody on the street is using their own created language?

The Lyrics From Billy's Forest Chapter Thirty

I am a Poet. One that just happens to write in a forest. As of late. I've been called to a specially collection of tress at the Billy Graham Library in Charlotte NC. In chapter thirty we talk about how the birth of a new season goes un-watched. We experience it. But we don't physically see the every changes. Therefore we tend to let go.

God Speaks Through Storms

Don't we all feel pretty weird when suddenly a thought or feeling takes over our body? When I was a kid I watched television preachers talk about how God was moving through them. I was amazed! I also wanted to experience it. What if God truly does talk to us and we reacted?

The Thought Monster

I've always been a fan of thoughts. Which might be the reason why I'm given the incredible opportunity to interview some pretty well known creative minds. A thought has a story. It's part of a vine. It will have its fruitful days and its not so pleasant moments. But in the end. Thoughts are the dots on the map that make us who we are.

Through A Writers Eyes

One day last September my writing instrument wasn't spreading ink across my page. Easily I could've thrown a king sized fit. But instead. I reached for my ink well. Several months later I look back at the moment and see that's how we treat spirituality. When we think God isn't working. We reach for other means.

Wise And Dumb Makeup Wisdom

I love breaking down words. To see as well as feel their impact. Learning from their presence in our today and how we can use them as a tool tomorrow.

Is The Face Of God In Your Shadow

We get it. The shadow is only created when the light is set. It doesn't make it perfect. Nor does a shadow seem to care for more or less. It's just there. What if the shadow is the shape of something created by the sun that shows how close God is next to you?

Who Owns Your Determination

The day of determination is not over. And yet we move about the office like we're lost warriors. Where is your focus? Or should I ask who owns your desire?

10 Minutes Before The Lights Go Out: The Length Of God's Time

The rains came and totally took out the deficit. Instantly overnight the drought was gone. So many times we want God to work that same miracle in our lives. Jesus! Please do it now! When in fact. If you pull the picture back. To get to this moment required a journey.
