Jesus shared the following parable, one that stands out in my head and is very prevalent for today. Matthew 13:1-9: “A farmer went out to plant his seed. He scattered the seed on the ground. Some fell on a path. Birds came and ate it up. Some seed fell on rocky places, where there wasn’t […]
Ol Slewfoot’s goal is to keep you from accomplishing God’s purpose in your life. Keep you from taking the time to worship, keep you from finding the time to read God’s Word. If you allow him to do this, you become spiritually malnourished. You can become discouraged and heavy hearted and depressed (all of which […]
This past autumn, I was dealing with an unexpected family emergency when the first frost hit. My beautiful outside plants that I had very lovingly and carefully cared for became victimized, carefully and as quickly as I could I brought one particular plant in that I thought perhaps I could save, but the next day […]
The Serenity Prayer is very common and well known: “God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time, enjoying one moment at a time; accepting hardship as a pathway to peace; […]
In the last post Holy Spirit had me write a post entitled, “Who Do You Say I am?” (See post below). God is Asking You – “Who Do You Say I Am?” In this post, I’d like to share that it’s not enough to know who Jesus is. We have to BELIEVE it. And as […]
As I prayed this morning for a word to write, I asked Holy Spirit, “what would you have me write this morning?” There has been such a spirit of heaviness with all that is going on in this world and I wanted a fresh new Word from Him. This is what He said: “Ask them, […]
The older I get, the more I realize how dependent upon the Lord I am. I have found myself wondering, “How did Jesus do it?” I think about the Scriptures and I wonder how Jesus kept focused, during the darkest time in His life. Betrayal from within His inner-circle… Betrayal from someone who was one of […]
There is an urgency for all of us to understand that the time for us to pray for God’s mercy IS now. This is not the time to be complacent and oblivious to what is going on behind the earthly realm of your life. I have been dreaming about a large hand moving, I believe […]
I woke up in the quiet of this morning praying. I’m at a point in my life where I truly understand the scripture that says: “If I didn’t praise Him the rocks would cry out.” (Luke 19:40) I’ve come to learn that true worship really does come from your heart. It is not lip service it is really […]
I have sat here typing an opening sentence, frowning up my face, hitting the back button to delete what I have written, only to start over again. Really what I’m feeling is, “Holy Spirit – what is going on?!!!” Do you feel that way too? 2022 has felt to me what it must feel like […]
This post is dedicated to one beautiful woman of God, who has gone on to be with Jesus, Annesha McKennery, I know right now you are part of the “Cloud of Witnesses” mentioned in Hebrews 12:1. Not yet 50 years old, unexpectedly to us He called you quickly home, it came as a surprise to […]
Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up. Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm […]
