Going through some of my favorite CD's from my past, I picked up a disc from artist Michael O'Brien. On this disc is his top hit "What Held You On The Cross." While every song on this project is good, as I was driving down the road, one song stood out to me. All Is … Continue reading All Is Forgiven

Im Not English But I Like Tea
So here I am drinking some tea and staying warm during yet another snow storm. There is nothing like a hot cup of tea to warm you up. Some prefer coffee for a pick me up or a nice warm drink. I prefer a nice hot cup of tea. It soothes the stomach, warms the … Continue reading Im Not English But I Like Tea
And Then There Were Three
OK, so we've gone from the masses to the twelve and for the most part, they are missing the true message of Christ, the Anointed One. Honestly, I don't want to be too critical because I the message can sometimes slip right over my head. Sometimes we get caught into a rut and sometimes it's … Continue reading And Then There Were Three
These Guys Should’ve Got It
So i guess 5,000 or more missed the whole point of what Jesus was saying. I guess I can understand that...kinda. After all, they weren't around the rabbi all the time. They just followed him from village to village. How could they have been expected to catch the heart of the message of the Messiah? … Continue reading These Guys Should’ve Got It
That Many People Still Missed It
I'm starting a 3-part series on the heart of God. Some of this came by revelation during dinner with a long-time friend. I love those times when you're just chatting away and God interupts the conversation. In fact, if we believe the scripture where Jesus said when 2 or 3 are gathered in His name, … Continue reading That Many People Still Missed It

If you live where I live, and probably some other places, then you have had your fair share of snow this year. It seems like many places are getting more snow than they expected. Some are getting snow where they seldom see it. In one of the previous posts here at The Balm of Gilead, … Continue reading Have You Had Enough Yet?
Go To Your Happy Place
Have you ever been told to "go to your happy place"? Maybe things weren't going your way so a friend told you that. I've had to tell myself that at times. Where is your happy place? For some, it is a quiet place...maybe imagining a private beach with waves as the only noise. For others … Continue reading Go To Your Happy Place
Modern Technology At Its Finest
I went to a new hospital in our area the other morning because a friend was having bypass surgery on his heart. As I sat there talking to his other friends and family, I looked around this hospital and noticed the brand new facility filled with the bright lights and all the things that make … Continue reading Modern Technology At Its Finest
Is It Well With Your Soul?
At the end of this year, I want to make sure everything is ok...with you and your soul. The video above is a more upbeat rendition of the song, but Denver & MHO do a great job at it. My pastor says that how you leave one season will determine how you enter the next. … Continue reading Is It Well With Your Soul?
Emmanuel…God With Us
As the whole world looks to the birth of Christ, let us look within to find an amazing gift. The natural senses look to that special site where a babe was born over 2000 years ago. We remeber the shepherds who saw the light and heard the angels. We remember the magi who came bearing … Continue reading Emmanuel…God With Us
