There is no joy in feeling like a prodigal. You feel like you have a big “P” engraved on the front of your chest. Your peace is gone, and you feel as though you have lost direction. You want to talk to God, but you are ever aware of your sins before you. It is […]
Although you may not realize it. You were created for a purpose… You were. Psalm 139:13 says: “The Creator knit you together in your mother’s womb. “ You may not even have realized it. There is a purpose for your life. There is a part of you that was made for one purpose. ONE. And […]
People usually think of worship as singing praise songs unto the Lord, and yes, that IS one form of worship. The Bible says in Psalm 100:4: “Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, And into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him and bless His name.” And music IS the universal language, but TRUE worship comes […]
Let It Go… Remember when you were a little kid, and you use to make wishes on dandelions, and you would blow really hard to make all the little petals blow away? Release the hurt and pain and let it go. Give it to over to God. Forgive. We often forget that when Jesus was […]
I promised myself when I was in my thirties that I would live a life without regrets, without any “shoulda, woulda, couldas…” But the truth of the matter is that if we are being honest, we ALL have regrets. But here is the thing – instead of focusing on what we have done wrong (especially […]
For as long as I can remember, I have always envied Noah, Moses and Abraham who always seemed able to clearly hear from God… If only I could hear God’s booming voice say: “Thus saith the Lord!” (I’m smiling into my screen wondering if God still talks in the style of King James. 🙂 ) […]
The Bible tells us in Psalm 139:2: “He knows our thoughts before we even think them.” Perhaps He is more aware of what your thinking than you are… Oh if only I could have a dollar for every time I wished I knew for absolute sure what God is saying to me… Although I am glad […]
Praise Him through the pain, which is what the Holy Spirit whispered to me as I spent quiet time before the Lord this morning. As I prayed, a praise song “on Christ the mighty rock I stand all other ground is sinking sand. All other ground is sinking sand…” Came into my mind. I thought […]
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 […]
As the saying goes, “seeing is believing” but John 20:29 tells us otherwise: “Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.” If you are part of God’s called Remnant (a follower of Jesus) than we have to adjust our way of living, our walk is to be one of faith. We have […]
Oh how hard headed we can often be! I have come to wonder how God puts up with ANY of us! (Myself included! Probably myself more than anyone else…) what’s it going to take for us to realize that God’s Word is true? That His promises are REAL? That He is a faithful God, not […]
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 […]
