You don’t have to have a “stiff upper lip” when it comes to being real with God… I’ve been thinking a lot about this, the spirit of religion is one that runs rampant. What is the spirit of religion? Jesus defined it in Matthew 15:8: “‘These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts […]
There are times in our walk with the Lord where He will bring you into situations that are totally out of the realm of anything you have ever encountered or experienced before. You suddenly find yourself in a situation where you are completely out of your comfort zone. You have no experiences that are similar […]
I find a notable difference in myself when I allow the things of the world to overpower my time with God… The only way I can describe it, is like this – time out of prayer or out of reading the Word of God (the Bible) is like starving oneself, and in doing so creates […]
Sometimes Jesus is just calling you to be obedient and walk in love. Oh this can be one of the hardest things He calls us to do! I find myself thinking of Noah quite a bit. Surrounded by people with hardened hearts, full of pride, selfish, know-it-alls, naysayers – yeah, we are called to LOVE […]
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 […]
I was praying about what I should write about today and I got to thinking about the men accusing the adulterous woman, ready to stone her for her sins… Do you know that story? It can be found in John 8:1-11: “Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. Early in the morning he came again […]
Don’t feel like you have to lie to God. Do you feel like crying today? He doesn’t expect you to keep a “stiff upper lip” – CRY. Did you know that the Bible says in Psalm 56:8: “You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have […]
Sometimes we try to put fires out in other peoples lives because we love them. In doing so, even with a good heart – we can get in the way in what God is doing. We are not called to be someone’s Savior, we are called to intercede TO the One who IS the Savior […]
I love Holy Spirit. Who is He? Click on the link to my home page and read about the Trinity, God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit – Three in One. This will give those who do not know or understand (or new in faith) a better understanding of Who God […]
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 […]
This post is dedicated to one beautiful woman of God, who has gone on to be with Jesus, Annesha McKennery, I know right now you are part of the “Cloud of Witnesses” mentioned in Hebrews 12:1. Not yet 50 years old, unexpectedly to us He called you quickly home, it came as a surprise to […]
“Be very careful, then, how you live–not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.” (Ephesians 5:15-16) She was walking down a new pathway, lost in thought of the lessons she had learned upon the previous way. Soaking them in, digesting them, smarting from the lesson she had […]
