3:227 – Hello, Friend #faithbites #faithjourney hello Setting I knew I wanted to write about friendship today but was coming up empty. I’m a little emotionally drained as it’s been a long week. Today was also the last day that my best friend would be staying with us and help nanny our kids. It’s going to stink without him as […]
3:226 – No Worries, Mate #faithbites #faithjourney worries Setting One of my most used phrases is, “No Worries”. I say this a lot when someone apologies to me for something they did wrong or a perceived slight. I like this phrase as I truly mean it, no worries. We all screw up, make mistakes, and fall short. What we need […]
3:225 – Feeling Less Than #faithbites #faithjourney less Setting Today, I woke up early with a near panic attack. No trigger, no warning, just anxiety gone crazy. Took some meds and still wasn’t feeling like myself. I was less than normal, less than I wanted to be. Went through the day like that, still living life, being friendly, getting things […]
3:224 – Pray For Our Leaders #faithbites #faithjourney leaders Setting Being a letter isn’t easy. You may voluntarily take the job but doing it is not voluntary. Then no matter what you chose there will be people who like your style and people who hate it. People who applaud your decisions and people who hate them. I’ll admit, I’m hypercritical […]
3:223 – God Plans, We Choose Our Response #faithbites #faithjourney choose Setting I often hear that it’s God’s plan for x,y,z. God made the storm. He made the virus. He will protect me.

3:222 – I Don’t Have Control #faithbites #faithjourney control Setting “Are the kids going to school online or in-person?” “What is going on with my job?” “What is going on with this virus?” “I don’t know who to believe.” Have you said any of these things? Are you feeling completely out of control? I know I am. This world is […]
3:221 – Love Perseveres #faithbites #faithjourney #SheSaidRamirYAS perseveres Setting Today was my wife’s cousin’s wedding. A beautiful ceremony joining to people together in love in front of their family, friends, and God. I wish them all the happiness in the world. One of their readings was 1 Corinthians which shows us the qualities of love. One that stuck home with […]
3:220 – Prayers For Our Educators #faithbites #faithjourney educators Setting It’s almost that time again: Back to School. Instead of the normal back to school supply shopping, reminiscing on the end of summer, and excitement about the fall, we have lots of fear, anxiety and trepidation about returning to school. COVID-19 has rocked our world and the Education system didn’t […]
3:218 – Making Decisions Can Be Hard #faithbites #faithjourney decisions When we are young many of us want want to grow up and make our own decisions.

3:216 – Touch Isn’t Optional #faithbites #faithjourney touch Setting Last night I had a dream that I was full body-hugging someone as she needed comfort. In my head, I was worried about getting her sick with COVID-19 or something else. When I woke up, I wondered what life will be like after the Pandemic. When will we go back to […]
