Trust in the Lord with ALL your heart, lean not to your own understanding, in ALL your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your path. (Proverbs 3:5) Walking along the road of life enjoying the warm sunshine on my back, whistling a joyous tune and carrying my rule book in my left hand, […]
She was down for the count, face first into the mud. She’d fallen for the enemy’s trick yet again! She should have known better, she had been trudging through the mud for the past 34 years. Had it really been 34 years? She could still remember when she had first received her shiny new soldier’s fatigues. How she […]
The first blow caught me by surprise. I simply didn’t see it coming… The force of the blow knocked my head to the left. Another resounding blow turns my head back to the right – like an old fashion typewriter, the carriage flying furiously to the other side. Right Left Right Left Stunning me, rendering […]
Holy Spirit turned my attention this week to the story of Lot and his wife. I believe that when Holy Spirit turns your head to different scriptures, it’s for a reason and as I prayed and thought more about Lot’s wife, I believe the reason God brought it to my attention is because He wants […]
Are you listening to what God is saying to you? Once you have given your heart to Jesus, it is important to remember that in order to grow spiritually in your walk with Him, you not only need to “converse” (pray) with Him but to also listen. Sometimes this can be difficult because the spiritual […]
“In Your book were all written the days that were ordained for me, when as yet there was not one of them” (Ps. 139:16). When it is all said and done, I will feel as though I did the best I could. I say that with certainty, mistakes and all… Oh how I wish that […]
I had a dream this morning of people being like the character Pilgrim in the great Christian book, Pilgrim’s Progress (by John Bunyan – a GREAT read!) who are carrying burdens that God wants us to give to Him. Specifically for prodigal children or unsaved loved ones, or for family that has been stunted in […]
Are you interceding on behalf of a loved one? Are you frustrated because you feel like God is not answering your prayers? Listen, it is not our responsibility to be “the grower,” it is our responsibility (if the moment presents itself), to be the sower or the person who waters what has already been sown. […]
I heard the Holy Spirit whisper today as I was praying about what to write: “You can’t receive anything with a closed hand. Some have open hearts but closed fists.” Are you praying for God to bless you? Is this word for you? When I get a word like this, it causes me to have […]
I thought I had been prepared… I had anticipated this day for as long as I could remember. What could I have done with it? Where could I have put it? HOW could I have forgotten it???? There were ten of us, you see… When we heard He was arriving, that the wedding banquet was prepared. Oh if you […]
Don’t let anyone tell you that it’s not okay to feel down as a Christian from time to time. We live in a day and age where we are pulled in a hundred directions at one time! Many of us wear many hats in life… God doesn’t expect you to have a “fake it ’til […]
“Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18) I must admit, this is one of those scriptures where a “check mark” rises up in my soul, it’s an area that needs refinement, one that I continue to try and work on, […]
