Suffering is a topic that we’d rather not talk about. Who wants to experience suffering? It is an uncomfortable topic, but it is one that I want to address because whether we want to accept it or admit it, at one point or another it is a portion of our walk in Christ… It is […]
Are you downhearted? Discouraged? Depressed? Forlorn? Sad? It could be that what you are experiencing is “a heaviness of spirit.” Did you know that is a spirit? The Bible tells us in Ephesians 6:12: “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this […]
You are precious to God. You matter. You were created with a purpose. You were created with gifts. God made you special. Even if you are not feeling that way right now, even as you read these words. Listen and I pray you hear Holy Spirit speaking through these words – there is NOTHING worse […]
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 […]
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 […]
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, […]
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 […]
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 […]
This morning as I prayed about what to write, Holy Spirit spoke to my heart and wanted me to to write today for those that have fallen in their walk with Christ, know they have fallen, don’t know the “why” they allowed themselves to get to the point they are currently at, but feel as […]
Last night, my husband and I began to watch an awards show on TV, we thought it would be entertaining as various actors and musicians were nominated by (we still couldn’t figure out who) to receive awards. People that God, when creating them had gifted them with talents that were originally meant to be used […]
Everything that happens to you becomes part of your testimony in Christ. The Bible tells us in Psalm 37:23: “The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way.” I want to encourage those of you who are patiently waiting for God to answer prayer by sharing with […]
God is calling us of today as He did His people in the day of old… I am constantly reminded by Holy Spirit that the people written about in the Bible are people JUST like us of today. They had their own insecurities, worries, concerns, issues, just like WE do today. The Bible tells us […]
