THIS IS THE LIFE PODCAST
THIS IS THE LIFE PODCAST “This Is The Life” is an authentic blend of storytelling, songwriting, devotion, and front-porch wisdom for the Lord. Rooted in family, faith, and the sacred beauty of everyday moments, This Is The Life captures the art of slowing down, listening deeply, and finding God’s fingerprints in the ordinary. It is a brand built on legacy moments, where songs become memories, podcasts become conversations, and devotionals become lifelines. Whether through heartfelt lyrics, reflective Bible studies, children’s stories inspired by the grandkids, or acoustic-soul melodies shaped by a lifetime of experiences, This Is The Life reminds people that a meaningful life isn’t found in the rush, but in the moments we choose to cherish. It is the celebration of love, family, Grace, and the beauty of simply embracing every moment. Be Blessed Eddie

From the time we’re young, we are surrounded by comparisons. Who’s the fastest, the smartest, the most talented. The world constantly pushes the idea that success is about being better than someone else, fitting into a mold, or meeting a certain standard.
But then comes the Truth, found in Psalms 139:14:
“I will praise thee; fo...
Scripture: Philippians 4:11-13
“Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound… I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.”
One of the greatest challenges in the Christian life is learning to live with open hands. We naturally want to h...
“It is of the LORD’S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.”
Every morning, God hands you a blank canvas. No matter what happened yesterday, whether it was filled with joy or struggle, victories or failures, today is a fresh start. His mercies are new. His faithfulness is steadfast.
You are not...
“But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided? So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.”
Somewhere along the way, it’s easy to start believing that more will bring happiness. More success, more money, more recognition, just more.
The idea creeps in that reac...
Scripture: Mark 4:26-29
“And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground; And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how.”
There are seasons in life when it seems like nothing is happening. We pray, we read God’s Word, we try to remain faithful, yet we don’t see much change...
1 Corinthians 15:57-58
57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
When I look back over the years of ministry, I realize that some of life’s greatest...
“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
— 1 John 1:9
There are few verses in Scripture that bring as much hope as 1 John 1:9. It is one of God’s greatest promises to those who belong to Him. It reminds us that failure is never the end of our story.
God’s desire is not to leave us b...
Proverbs 23:7
“For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.”
Our thoughts shape our lives.
Long before our actions are seen by others, they have already been formed in the heart. Proverbs reminds us that a person can say all the right things on the outside while their heart tells a completely different s...
Scripture: “Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.” — Isaiah 1:18
There are few invitations in Scripture more remarkable than these words from the Lord: “Come now, and let us reason together.”
The phrase “reason to...
2 Corinthians 3:18
“But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.”
Most every morning we stand before a mirror. We straighten our hair, adjust our clothing, and prepare for the day. The mirror faithfully reflects what is on the outside, but it can never reveal...
There are times in life when we expect God to call us to do something new. But often, He simply calls us to stay faithful where we already are.
Instead of always chasing the next big thing, God may be speaking to you to just remain faithful to what He has already given you.
“Let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.” —...
Scripture: “And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.”
— 1 John 5:14-15
As we conclude this week of praying for our families, these verses remind us of something that should transform th...
Matthew 5:16
“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”
There is something very powerful about praying for our families. Every prayer we offer places those we love into the hands of a faithful God. But as we pray, the Lord also calls us to become part of the answer to those prayers.
Sometime...
Scripture: Romans 8:28
“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.”
When we pray for our families, there will be times when we do not understand what God is doing. We see struggles, disappointments, setbacks, broken dreams, difficult seasons, and unanswered quest...
Psalms 103:2-4
2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;
One of the greatest comforts a believer can have is knowing that God watches over His children. We can&rsq...
Scripture: Acts 16:29-31
29 Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas,
30 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
There is no greater prayer we can pray for our family than the prayer of ...
This month marks six years of This Is The Life Podcast.
As I reflect on this journey, one verse continually comes to mind:
“I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.” — Proverbs 8:17
While this verse certainly speaks of seeking the Lord early in the day, it also reminds us of the importance of seeking Him early in every season of li...
