Three Little Shoes
This past Monday night, I cleaned up the kitchen after we’d all enjoyed Stephanie’s giant, belated St. Patrick’s Day feast. As I finished scrubbing the last pan, I noticed there was a stillness in the air. The rush and banter and ornery, bed-time laughter of our three kidlets had disappeared. Our home was quiet. Not a peep was heard. Not even (thankfully) a mouse. . . .

We Need Each Other!
Two events occurred this week that overwhelmed my heart with joy. I’m not just talking about a fleeting moment of happiness. No, I’m speaking of an inexpressible gladness in God’s work here at Mayfair.
What happened that was so fantastic? . . .

As Good As Dead?
Sometimes the Bible makes me laugh. I don’t just mean a light chuckle either. I’m talking about a full-throated laugh out-loud. . . .

A Truth to Hold Close
This past week, my sweet six-year-old daughter exercised her reading skills with a Dr. Seuss book as I tucked her into bed. Every few moments she would look up at me with her dancing, vivacious eyes. She read with excitement and happiness as her Mama rejoiced over her. My heart overflowed with gladness in God for the gift he has given me in my bright, beautiful girl.
If I naturally overflow with joy over my daughter, how much more does our perfect Creator delight over everything He has made?

Pawns on the Chessboard?
Temperatures may wildly rise and fall. Economic concerns may skyrocket across the globe. Political crises will see-saw from sea to shining sea. But meanwhile, we stand on the sidelines like pawns on the chessboard of the powerful. Or do we? . . . .

Non-Negotiables
There’s no denying it. We live in a culture of increasing darkness, confusion, and death. We are hopeful and prayerful for a spiritual awakening in the world. Yet there is no mistaking our surroundings. We’re not in Mayberry anymore, folks. . . .
