I grew up in the state where “Dunkin’ Donuts” was created. You may be unfamiliar with that name, but Dunkin Donuts is a fast food chain that makes a variety of donuts and coffees. It began in Massachusetts, (where I am originally from) and throughout Massachusetts Dunkin’ Donuts is so popular that there are Dunkin’s […]
Jesus shared the following parable, one that stands out in my head and is very prevalent for today. Matthew 13:1-9: “A farmer went out to plant his seed. He scattered the seed on the ground. Some fell on a path. Birds came and ate it up. Some seed fell on rocky places, where there wasn’t […]
This past autumn, I was dealing with an unexpected family emergency when the first frost hit. My beautiful outside plants that I had very lovingly and carefully cared for became victimized, carefully and as quickly as I could I brought one particular plant in that I thought perhaps I could save, but the next day […]
As I prayed this morning for a word to write, I asked Holy Spirit, “what would you have me write this morning?” There has been such a spirit of heaviness with all that is going on in this world and I wanted a fresh new Word from Him. This is what He said: “Ask them, […]
The older I get, the more I realize how dependent upon the Lord I am. I have found myself wondering, “How did Jesus do it?” I think about the Scriptures and I wonder how Jesus kept focused, during the darkest time in His life. Betrayal from within His inner-circle… Betrayal from someone who was one of […]
I woke up in the quiet of this morning praying. I’m at a point in my life where I truly understand the scripture that says: “If I didn’t praise Him the rocks would cry out.” (Luke 19:40) I’ve come to learn that true worship really does come from your heart. It is not lip service it is really […]
I have sat here typing an opening sentence, frowning up my face, hitting the back button to delete what I have written, only to start over again. Really what I’m feeling is, “Holy Spirit – what is going on?!!!” Do you feel that way too? 2022 has felt to me what it must feel like […]
This morning, as I was driving and asking Holy Spirit what it was that He wanted me to write about today, I heard Him whisper, “Cain and Abel.” I was a bit surprised, but as I thought about it, it occurred to me that the Cain and Abel factor is one that is current even […]
When you think of settlers, what comes to mind? My mind goes to the 1800’s, wagon trains, pioneers, camp fires, the whole western theme. Do you know that settlers still exist in this day in age? Google defines “settler” as such: “A person who moves with a group of others to live in a new […]
When God has called you to be part of His called remnant, you have to realize that in order to be in the center of His will, we have to look to Jesus as our example, we have to walk in forgiveness. We are called to forgive. We live in a day and age where […]
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 […]
Whether or not we recognize it, every morning that we wake up we go through our day believing things and whatever we believe sets the course of actions on what we do with that day. Our daily activities that we perform are engrained in how we live and whether or not we recognize it – […]
