Are You Familiar with the God Who Laughs?

We are so wrong when we view God as a “stoic, disciplinary, shaking His finger at us” kind of God… YES God IS Holy and we should treat Him with the honor and respect He deserves as our Creator.  But when we focus on the image of a God that seems “unreachable” or “unloving” or […]

Basking in the Son (and Yes, I said SON)

It’s amazing to me how we fight so hard against what is GOOD for us!  Like a child who stubbornly doesn’t want to eat his vegetables, we balk at obeying the Word of God. In other words: WE HINDER WHAT IS GOOD FOR US! So, I want to encourage you!   EAT YOUR SPIRITUAL VEGGIES! THEY […]

Have You (in Christ) Done all You Can?

Today I woke up and as I sat down at my computer, after praying, my mind went blank… I didn’t have a Word to share or a notion as to what I should write.  And then I thought about the scripture, the last part of Ephesians 6:13 that says: “…and when you have done all, […]

Stop the Pretenses, Stop the Pressure!

This new year I want you to know, that you don’t have to start the new year off with pretenses… Most people start the new year with a resolution and then three weeks later their resolution has gone up in smoke.  Listen, we are ALL works in progress, if anyone knows that GOD does!  Remember: […]

The Dandelion

The wind carried the little seed far from its original origin, gently lowering it exactly where it wanted it to be, soil in between the crack of a driveway in front of a single-family home. Cold, the seed snuggled deeper within the soil looking for the warmth the soil provided and settled as deeply in […]

Are You Closing This Year with Fear OR with Faith?

New Year’s Eve is soon approaching, it is a time that should I allow it, feels me with unease and anxiety – which are two things that are NOT of God… I guess I always feel that way because it causes me to look back on the year that is ending, with all that has […]

You are NOT Alone

Are you in a situation where you feel as though no one understands you? As though you are at a standstill in your life with no idea how to move forward?  Do you feel alone in a room crowded with people? That no one “gets” you?  Are you at a point in your life where […]

God’s Christmas Gift to You – Have You Received and Opened it Yet?

I did not grow up in a Christian home, both of my parents did not attend church, I did not know anything in the Bible other than the story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden (from a picture filled Children’s Bible).  God was not “personal” to me, He was the BIG, pie-in-the-sky […]

Spitting Out, “I’ll Pray for You”

What language does your life speak? Are you aware that your life speaks a language all of it’s own? The story of the Tower of Babel and the language change that God had take place amongst the people shown in Genesis 11:1-9 showed the change that occurred with dialect and communication.  What language do YOU […]

You May Love Others – But Do You Love You?

One of the things that I am learning in my walk with the Lord is that often times, we can be our own worst critic… Do you ever feel that way about yourself as well?  Ex-prodigals, you know what I’m talking about… If you repent of something, the Bible tells us in Psalm 103:12: “God […]

Don’t Lose Focus!!!

Have you ever had a “Job” experience?  You know, a time in your walk where if you were walking in accordance with your flesh the words you *might* feel like uttering are nothing in line with how the Bible tells you to respond? 😉 Come on, I’m being honest!  Times where you know that ol’ […]
