The church is the body of Christ, WE are the church – not a building, not a place but the people. I have written about this in a post entitled, “Here’s the Church, Here’s the Steeple, Open the Door – Here’s all the People” (click on pink link listed below): Here’s the Church, Here’s the […]
I cannot imagine what it must have been like for those that loved Jesus to see Him hanging from that cross. As a mother, I cannot imagine Mary’s anguish. As a friend and as a follower, it must have been excruciating not being able to do anything to help Him. Knowing that He did NOT […]
We sometimes look at the Bible and forget that every person written IN the Word of God were living and breathing people – just like you and I. THEY WERE REAL. They were not characters in a book of fiction, they were people spoken about FOR A TIME SUCH AS THIS. God has placed US […]
I don’t know what it is you are going through, or if you are going through anything at all… But there is ONE thing I DO know – GOD IS GREATER. If you are feeling helpless, like you don’t have ANY answers – let me tell you this – GOD is the answer. He’s the […]
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 […]
