It is easy for us to compare God to our earthly fathers, or think of Him as this big “religious” figure who shakes His finger at us or is a wrathful mean foreboding figure. He’s not. He is the meet-you-right-where-you-are-at kind of God. He is the knows-your-thoughts-before-you-think-them kind of God (see Psalm 139). Our perception […]
My style has always been one to try and reach people where they are at… I guess if my friends were to describe me, most of them would say, “Kelly doesn’t sugar coat anything. She’s the raw ingredients. She’s completely transparent and the ‘real deal… I know that if I want a direct and honest answer, I […]
Who are you following? Quiet your heart for a moment and think on that question. The Bible tells us in Matthew 6:21: “For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” Maybe it’s not a “who” but a “what.” It could be the way you are living… You follow what you believe because […]
Sometimes life feels like you are standing in the middle of a storm that is raging all around you. Discord, confusion, lack spinning all around you. Situations you don’t know what to do about flash into your mind like lightning. Every time you try to figure out what to do, another thunderous situation booms and […]
She stood so still you would have thought she was a statue. She had been through this experience many times before and should have at this point become quite stoic about it. She knew too well how easy it was to be alone in a room crowded with people. Really it shouldn’t hurt her anymore […]
“Oh What a Tangled Web We Weave, When First We Practice to Deceive!” ~ Sir Walter Scott Even if he did say so himself, the web was magnificent, translucent and large. The design beautifully created, although unless you were of his species you would not be able to appreciate its intricate design, the time it […]
Waking up she sat forward, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes; with a yawn she stretched her arms over her head and then ran a hand threw her wayward sleep tussled curls and turned her eyes towards the stunning view outside as a new day began to gloriously dawn… The field was perfect for […]
My husband and I have been watching a talent show that comes on twice a week, where contestants have been given the opportunity to showcase their talent. Every contestant that is presented gives a soliloquy introducing themselves and within the context of EACH introduction makes it a point to focus a moment of tremendous sadness […]
If you are a mother or father of a willful child full of woe and disdain – if you are the mother of a child who judges you unfairly and harshly…. If you are a mother of a child that you have done your best by – faults and all… Know this… GOD UNDERSTANDS. […]
I had a revelation tonight… satan is called “the accuser” “he is the accuser of the brethren…” (Revelations 12:10) The Bible tells us his goal is to kill, steal and destroy (read John 10:10). Anyway and anyone who can hurt you he will use. So why are we so taken by surprise when it is […]
When it comes to the end of my life, I will be standing before the Father and I will be standing there without any one standing there with me holding my hand. YOU will not BE there with me giving an account of my life – you can’t, just like I won’t be there when […]
I’ve been thinking about the woman with the issue of blood in Luke Chapter 8 verse 43-48 “And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, which had spent all her living upon physicians, neither could be healed of any, 44 came behind him, and touched the border of his garment: and immediately her issue of […]
