Why is it so easy to believe for others, more than for ourselves? Listen beloved reader – God has NO favorites. What He has done for others, He will do for you. You simply have to believe. Many of us struggle with receiving, because we have always been givers. God wants you to allow […]
If I were to describe what it feels like to experience what the Bible describes as “The peace that passes ALL understanding,” I would only be able to compare it to that warm feeling you get when you are cold and you snuggle down deeper underneath an electric blanket… Or the feeling of seeing someone […]
We live in a very fast paced world where multitasking is our way of life. Juggling lots of balls in the air, wearing many different hats and if you are a member of God’s Called Remnant (a follower of Christ) than sometimes you feel more like you are not only juggling a lot of balls, […]
How do you handle change? I’ve never been a fan of it. I’m a creature of habit, I like life to feel like a big comfy chair that over time has settled to the form of my body and I can climb into it and sigh, knowing what to expect. I’m a creature of habit, […]
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 […]
