If you woke up this morning feeling vulnerable – it is okay. Don’t be ashamed. Recognizing that you are feeling weak makes you more aware of the fact that God is our covering. That we can do nothing on our own accord, we are dependent upon Him. That’s the way He created us! We were […]
Your Father is calling You Home… I have a word for all of you who are prodigals who have been reading my writings… LISTEN CAREFULLY… GOD LOVES YOU. I do not know what it is you are currently going through or what it is that has brought you to the point of becoming a prodigal. […]
It is easy for us to compare God to our earthly fathers, or think of Him as this big “religious” figure who shakes His finger at us or is a wrathful mean foreboding figure. He’s not. He is the meet-you-right-where-you-are-at kind of God. He is the knows-your-thoughts-before-you-think-them kind of God (see Psalm 139). Our perception […]
Writing to me is an act of worship. Because I have been called to be a Scribe unto the Lord, I pray every morning that God will help me to walk responsibly in the calling He has set on my life. A life I willingly turned over to Him. “I have been crucified with Christ, […]
When I try to think of a comparison of what “pressing in” to my faith means, I visualize a runner who is running a marathon and is determined to do the best they can to make it to the end. Moments when they have to push through the burning lungs and physical inclination of wanting […]
My style has always been one to try and reach people where they are at… I guess if my friends were to describe me, most of them would say, “Kelly doesn’t sugar coat anything. She’s the raw ingredients. She’s completely transparent and the ‘real deal… I know that if I want a direct and honest answer, I […]
Lately I’ve been living a “grit my teeth” kinda faith. You know the kind, where you don’t see it, don’t feel it but you are going to believe it and walk in it any ways faith. Not to put myself in the same faith class as Job, but I have found myself wondering this week – How did […]
Who are you following? Quiet your heart for a moment and think on that question. The Bible tells us in Matthew 6:21: “For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” Maybe it’s not a “who” but a “what.” It could be the way you are living… You follow what you believe because […]
Sometimes life feels like you are standing in the middle of a storm that is raging all around you. Discord, confusion, lack spinning all around you. Situations you don’t know what to do about flash into your mind like lightning. Every time you try to figure out what to do, another thunderous situation booms and […]
There is one sentiment that I have noticed I’ve been saying quite a lot of this year, that saying is: “Please God…” That’s it – simply put… “Please God…” I have come to call it, “Please God” prayers… It is when you are going through something so heartfelt, profound or difficult that the only words […]
She stood so still you would have thought she was a statue. She had been through this experience many times before and should have at this point become quite stoic about it. She knew too well how easy it was to be alone in a room crowded with people. Really it shouldn’t hurt her anymore […]
My husband and I have been watching a talent show that comes on twice a week, where contestants have been given the opportunity to showcase their talent. Every contestant that is presented gives a soliloquy introducing themselves and within the context of EACH introduction makes it a point to focus a moment of tremendous sadness […]
