Holy Spirit brought to the front and center of my mind, Mary the mother of Jesus… Did you know that every person written about in the Bible is there for a reason? They are there as an example for us, Mary IS an example of someone who was COMPLETELY devoted to God. She was willing […]
Are you feeling like you are from the Island of misfit or broken toys? It’s Christmas time and one of my favorite Christmas cartoons is Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer. The reindeer who wasn’t accepted by all the other reindeers because he was “different.” Instead of being considered “special” he was ostracized for his bright shiny red nose. He […]
The Bible is the Living Word of God. I guess that is why the devil tries so hard to have people just keep their Bibles collecting dust on the shelves of their bedroom, study or displayed in a foyer or tucked in a bedside drawer. Honestly, it does no good for you there… It is […]
Trust in the Lord with ALL your heart, lean not to your own understanding, in ALL your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your path. (Proverbs 3:5) Walking along the road of life enjoying the warm sunshine on my back, whistling a joyous tune and carrying my rule book in my left hand, […]
I was reading today about a faithful man of God named Stephen in Acts 6:5, Stephen is described as “a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit.” He was one of the seven men chosen to help distribute food to the widows in the early church when the Apostles realized that they needed […]

The dictionary defines the word “Christian” like this: “A person who has received Christian baptism or is a believer in Christianity.” It also says, “relating to or professing Christianity or its teaching.” and in Google it says, “a person who believes […]
There are some days when I wake up just KNOWING God is not done with me. The kind of day where from the moment I woke up, everyone and everything around me irritated me. Heck, I even felt irritated with my own self and I couldn’t put my finger on the why of it. I […]
The biggest bully of all stands in the background of your life, mocking you, whispering insults and accusations in your ear. His greatest accolade is causing havoc in the most vulnerable areas of your life and making you believe that he doesn’t even exist. He is called the devil or satan and he absolutely and […]
We live in a time where we are hard pressed on ALL sides. I have been thinking a lot about the Israelites during the time they were under such oppression and slavery under the rule of pharaoh. When we read our Bible it is easy to forget that everything happened over a period of time, […]
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 […]
