I’ve been giving a lot of thought to that question and I hope you will too… I think about the 21 year old girl I was (34 years ago) and how naïve I was at the time I accepted the invitation to invite Jesus Christ into my heart as my personal Lord and Savior. I […]
The Bible tells us that God looks at the heart. Throughout Jesus’ interactions with people, he saw beyond the surface level of people. The lepers, the tax collectors, the demon possessed, to name just a few. Jesus looked beyond what society saw. He looked beyond the surface level. As He did then, He does now. […]
Are you playing the “Blame Game?” Is something keeping you from going forward in your calling? In the book of Genesis 3:12, Adam blamed God and Eve for his participation in sinning. “The man said, ‘The woman you put here with me–she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.’” Eve […]
Did you know that God desires intimacy with you? I think one of the best things about being in Christ, is knowing that God knows our thoughts before we even think them. That should allow us to take the pretense off anything we say to Him. I never understood why Adam and Eve, created to […]
Once you make a decision to make Jesus your Lord and Savior, your life will surely change. I write this with a smile on my face because 37 years ago I had no idea that praying a simple prayer, would drastically change my life. God IS merciful. God IS patient. God IS loving. Listen, God […]
New Year’s has never been one of my favorite holidays, it’s probably because I am an 11 years’ breast cancer survivor, God healed me. I have come to learn how precious life is. Each day, not only one. We act as though we are “promised” tomorrow. We take today for granted; the truth is today […]
Jesus said in John 16: “I have told you these things, so that in Me you will have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” Jesus did not leave us without help. At times we may feel overwhelmed and that is when we need to remember […]
“The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because He has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free.” (Luke 4:18) There He is, Jesus – with the key to your jail […]
Don’t let the “Negative Nellys” in this world pull you down to the bottom of the barrel. Instead, we need to remember that we walk by faith and not by sight (see 2 Corinthians 5:7) and do not allow the negative report of others to tear down your faith. Stand firm in He who has […]
The hustle and bustle of holiday shoppers is all around me, television commercials show what they hope to be enticing commercials to get you to buy their products, and as I sit in the quiet of my house, I honestly can’t think of one advertised product I would want to buy. I’m not trying to […]
When I was a little kid, I remember a game-song my aunts would play with me. They would put their hands together, palm to palm and say, “Here is a church.” Then they would interlock their fingers (still palm to palm) leaving their thumbs pressed together and they would say, “Here is the steeple.” Then […]
You are never too old to go and sit upon your Father’s lap. So, climb right up there. Close your eyes and picture doing just that. And then feel His arms wrapped protectively around you. Lean your head back on his shoulder and pour your heart out to Him, having the confidence to know that […]
