BEWARE! DON’T VENTURE THERE! JUST SAY NO!

I was in a prodigal state 12 years ago.  I feel as though Holy Spirit is directing me to write about this today, someone is either at the brink of falling, walking away from the Lord instead of towards Him – if that is you, please read this post and I will pray that Holy […]

Consider the Source…

We are a spirit that has a soul that is housed in a body. Often the body and the soul (your personality) are the only two parts of you that you identify with, but your spirit is important to acknowledge as well because one day you will shed your shell (your body) and you will […]

The Woman with the Alabaster Jar

We tend to look at the Bible as “stories” and not as history, as we should.  Maybe if we changed our perspective of what we are reading, we would have a greater understanding of what it is Holy Spirit is showing us at any particular moment, since the Bible IS the living Word of God. […]

Oh Yeah, and Don’t Forget the Walking in Love Part…

I can only speak for myself, but I’m hoping that since I seem to be struggling with this maybe Holy Spirit is directing others with the same issue to this post. 🙂 Being in the center of God’s will for your life involves something Jesus spoke of – something that just about everyone I know […]

Pride Before a Fall –

There are times in our walk with the Lord where He will bring you into situations that are totally out of the realm of anything you have ever encountered or experienced before. You suddenly find yourself in a situation where you are completely out of your comfort zone. You have no experiences that are similar […]

Introspectively Speaking…

We live in a world that focuses on the faults and shortcomings of those around us… Grudge holding, is that you?  Still holding hurts of years gone past and in doing so, allowing yourself to be held captive to the pain of “their fault!” or “should have, would have, could haves but didn’ts…”:   Or maybe […]

God IS Able and No Matter HOW it Looks – He’s STILL in Control!

2022 has been a year like none I ever expected to experience – but here is the thing, the Bible tells us in Proverbs 16:9: “The mind of man plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps.” This is why it is important for us to build our trust in the Lord, to give […]

Proceed with Caution – Warning, Potential Hazardous Situation Ahead

As you know from my title, “Ex-Prodigal’s Daughter” I once was that prodigal, journeying back home… This morning, I got to thinking about how ol’ slewfoot tries to circle back around and use the same tricks of the past to trip you up again, if you are not careful and keep a watchful eye, he […]

Forged in Fire – Dedicated to the Memory of Annesha McKennery, One of God’s Finest

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 […]

The Allegory of the Pitbull

“Be very careful, then, how you live–not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.”  (Ephesians 5:15-16)  She was walking down a new pathway, lost in thought of the lessons she had learned upon the previous way.  Soaking them in, digesting them, smarting from the lesson she had […]
