I went for a walk this afternoon and there were several ladies walking around praying. I looked around, trying to find an area where I could be alone. I spotted a path with only one other person on it. As I walked, I began to tell the Lord of my love for Him and to invite Him to do as He wills in Read More
Keys to the Kingdom
Keys open locked things. You need a key to get access. Let’s take a locked box, for instance. The box without a key is useless; if you don’t have the key, you can’t get to what’s inside. If someone told you that the box contained everything you needed, then gave you the key, would you throw the key away or forget Read More
Jesus Our Sure Foundation
With everything going on in our world, we need a sense of security more than ever and the only true security comes in our relationship with Jesus. One of my favorite verses is Isaiah 33:6, “He shall be the security and stability of your times.” Like the old hymn says, “On Christ the solid rock I stand, all other ground Read More
What Type of Lenses Are You Wearing?
There are different types of lenses. A few weeks ago, I was with some friends; one of them was trying to read something to me but was struggling because she didn’t have her glasses. I happened to have my cheaters with me, so I let her use mine. Unfortunately, she was still unable to see a thing as we obviously Read More
Walk Worthy
Castles, knights, princesses, and crowns – these are the stuff of every girl’s pretend years. What girl (of any age) doesn’t love her a sparkling tiara? I will be the first to admit that I got up in the middle of the night in the summer of 1981 to watch Prince Charles and Lady Diana’s royal wedding. We have a Read More
What Are You Looking At?
I work in the early childhood field, and we tell teachers frequently, “What you focus on you get more of.” What we are trying to convey is if you focus on a negative behavior, you will get more of it. If you focus on the positive, you will see more behaviors that are positive. The same is true as Read More
Fighting For Change
It’s time, we all need to be fighting for change. First, we have to change ourselves. To do that we need to know which areas of our lives need more God. We all have some area in our lives where we need to let Jesus in. Just stop here for a moment….take a deep cleansing breath, hold it, slowly Read More
Believe
There have been two times in my life where I was asked; “if money was not an object what would you do?” I was thinking about that not too long ago, what would I do if money wasn’t an object, and as I was sitting there daydreaming of all the things I could and would do, God spoke to my Read More
In His Presence 24/7
Psalm 27:4 AMP “ One thing have I ask of the Lord, that will I seek and inquire for, and insistently require; that I may DWELL in the house of the Lord, in His presence all the days of my life, to behold and gaze upon the beauty, the sweet attractiveness and the delightful loveliness of the Lord and to Read More
Listen
I wouldn’t say I’m an expert on listening. Not even close. As a friend, I catch myself interrupting others. As a wife I find myself zoning out while my husband tells me about his monotonous workday, and as a mother I find myself blocking out all noise pertaining to my four dear children. I like my music loud. I like Read More
