Back in Time


Have you always thought to yourself about going back in time? I always have and a lot in the last few weeks and years. I always thought to myself, what would it be like if I went back to high school, got into sports like running, basketball, graduating with a home school co-op. Sometimes I wonder what would be like if the pandemic never happened in 2020. 

Then I think about it more and grateful to the Lord I’m here where He wants me. I am grateful for that. 

My friends from KCBI said it well: 

“It’s easy to look back on the past and think, those were the good old days. I had a friend in college who used to say that about high school all the time. And honestly, I catch myself doing it too... thinking about childhood or teenage years when life felt a whole lot simpler.

There’s nothing wrong with holding on to sweet memories. They’re gifts from God. But as followers of Christ, we’re not meant to live looking backward. We’re called to live with hope for what’s ahead.

Paul says it this way in Philippians 3:13-14: “One thing I do: forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.”

The best part of your story hasn’t already happened. God is still writing it. And His ultimate promise for you is eternal life with Him, something no “good old day” here on earth could ever compare to.”

KCBI Story

 Hello! Sorry I haven’t posted in a couple of months.  Have you ever had a place, a friend, celebrity, or pastor that has impacted your life. I have so many of those. One of them is my local Christian radio station. I started listening to KCBI more in the year 2021 a year after the pandemic. Over the past four years, the station has made an impact in my life. To the on air team, teaching, and the music. I’ve gotten to hear so many stories from the DFW area, and new Christian contemporary songs and new artist. Not just listening to the on air team, but getting to know them and knowing what their stories are off air. Just this past year, it has been such an encouragement. My family and I have been going through a lot these past six months and when I listen, it’s been made more of an impact. I might not always relate to everything, but some I do. I am grateful for this radio station, the people, and seeing how the Lord has worked and is continuing to do so!

Give Thanks

 Happy Thanksgiving month everyone. At least here in the Texas, the crisp cool weather came in last week, the smells in the house of baked goods, and all the good smells of fall. This month is Thanksgiving. A day where we thank the Lord for everything He’s given us. Sometimes after Halloween, you just want to skip Thanksgiving and move right into Christmas. Yes, that’s me every year. I have already listened to Christmas music, you see Christmas all over the stores, malls, etc.  I always have to remind myself, that Thanksgiving is coming up and not to neglect the holiday.  People always say, we should just be thankful just that one day out of the year, but you should be thankful all month long and even all year. Think back through the year 2025 and write down or just think of what the Lord has blessed you with this year. It doesn’t have to be big but it can be small. For example, I am thankful I woke up today and God has blessed me with another day of living and growing wi...
