There is a song that use to play over and over again in my soul. It was set there at childhood and has played throughout the course of my life – 55 years, until I realized I didn’t have to listen to it anymore – the lyrics were not lyrics that God intended to be spoken […]
What are you speaking over your life or the lives of your family? You can in ignorance speak curses over your family by your words. Speak blessings over your family, not curses! Watch what you say! It is with Words that God created the Heaven and the earth, take a look at the book of […]
Last night, I came a cross a humorous poem contest, and smiled as I dusted off a light-hearted poem I had written a short time after undergoing chemotherapy and radiation for breast cancer. I decided to tweak it a little (since it was written 8 years ago) and submit it, just for fun. I share […]
I’ve been thinking about how they must have felt on the Titanic – knowing the ship had hit an iceberg and was sinking… Desperate, scared, shocked, knowing that the situation they were in was like nothing they’d expected to confront… When you are in Christ it’s not that you are immune to fear it’s that […]
I never understood people who put on airs or façades. It never made sense to me, I never learned how to be “fake” because I didn’t see the point in it… Listen, you can fool people, but you CANNOT fool God. One of the things that I learned when I married the love of my […]
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 […]
