Hands down, the book of Isaiah has to be my favorite book, of all the books in the bible! Don’t you just love this book? I don’t know, maybe we love it because of the Messianic theme throughout or it could be that the social ills of the time are addressed. Although it is not…

Working, working, happy working.. I love to work…. Okay I will confess, my name is workaholic. You could say… I am like Giselle in the Disney movie, Enchanted. The problem with being a workaholic is… if you aren’t one, you could say, “How could there be a problem with working too much… busy hands happy…
