3:184 – I Want To Buy #faithbites #faithjourney buy So, we are on vacation and my.kida, especially my youngest, wants to buy everything. It doesn’t matter what it is, everything is “I’ve always wanted this”. So she kept buying stuff and I helped her on making some good choices but she still wanted more. My eldest then ran out of […]
3:183 – Are You Feeling A Little Wonky? #faithbites #faithjourney wonky The word “Wonky” has been in my head last since last nice as in “I’m feeling a little wonky”. If you aren’t familiar with the term, it originates from England and as an adjective means unsteady, shaky, awry, wrong. If you want a funny story, you can read the […]
3:181 – Messaging #faithbites #faithjourney messaging On our trip to Branson, we saw many billboards. Some said things like: “I love America and if you don’t leave”, “Pray continuously”, “Thanks essential workers”, and one sign said “I’m an old gun owner who is firm on my religion”. When we talk, we are constantly sending messages about our beliefs and who […]
3:180 – Me Time or We Time #faithbites #faithjourney time Quarantine life is kinda weird. We have so much more time to be with family than we normally do.

3:174 – Am I Selfish? #faithbites #faithjourney selfish Fair warning, this is a challenging #faithbites and I am riled up. I am upset about those choosing not to wear a mask because “it bothers them”. Not that they can’t wear it because of a medical issue but they don’t like it. Wearing masks isn’t to protect you, but it’s to […]
3:173 – Being For Jesus Doesn’t Mean You Are Against Others #faithbites #faithjourny against The word I have been using to describe our world is nuance or lack there of. If you say you like something, like the president, then you are evil and a racist. If you like Joe Biden, then you are for a police state. Another example, […]
3:170 – One More Time With Feeling #faithbites #faithjourney feeling I’m sitting here listening to my youngest playing with the dog as the rain and storms roll in. I’m wondering if I will remember this night in a few months or years. The things we did during the day, the food we ate, the arguments we had, and the fun […]
3:169 – Freedom #faithbites #faithjourney #juneteenth #900days freedom Today marks 900 days since I began sharing scripture daily, which later turned into #faithbites. 900 messages of faith. 900 messages of freedom from sin through Jesus.

3:168 – What Do You Treasure? #faithbites #faithjourney treasure Setting There has been a lot in the news about our heritage. Statues being removed, brands that we know changing, upheaval about change. The key has been “they are taking away my heritage” or “this is what I treasure”. Then the quick response is you are being racist or you just […]
