Are you tired of quiet times that leave you feeling empty? Tired of spending time in the Word of God only to forget what you read by noon? Maybe you made a goal this year to get closer to the Lord, read the Bible through, or do something similar. But, here it is, the end of January, and you have Read More
Trusting God???
Entering 2022, my thoughts keep going to “Trusting God.” As I look back at 2021 and my walk with God, the things I went through, and the words I believe God had given me, I began to ponder, “Do I really trust God?” Yes, I do want to trust God. I do want to believe what He had given me in scripture Read More
I Ain’t Playing
I like to think of myself as a light-hearted person who likes to tease and playfully banter with my friends. But, one area I do not play in is my stance against satan. He is evil, a liar, and he wants to steal your joy. Don’t you let him!!! I have been amazed at all the stories in the Bible Read More
Watering Wednesday
Last week while I was praying, God gave me a vision. It seems so silly to even say that. It seems “religious”, which I’ve always steered clear of. I’ve always just tried to live my life for Jesus, as a good example, being real, and learning so much along the way. But seriously, the more our church has studied Ephesians Read More
The Sound of Silence
“Turn it off.” “Be quiet.” That’s what God said to me one night. At first, I thought He meant the fan in my room, which added noise to my otherwise silent night. And He did. But I came to discover that it was about so much more than my fan. He wanted me to turn off the sound of the Read More
Why Cry Out for More?
The Bible is clear that we have been given everything we need to live a victorious life if we have made Jesus the Lord and Savior of our lives. We are blessed with EVERY spiritual blessing in Christ Jesus (Ephesians 1:3). We are MORE than conquerors through Christ who loves us (Romans 8:37). God has given us EVERYTHING pertaining to Read More
Fishers Of Men
We are called to be fishers of men. There are so many hurting, unsaved people in the world that need Jesus. We are called to be fishers of men not only to avoid others spending eternity in hell but also so that they have peace and a life worth living. We have been called to introduce them to Jesus not Read More
What Are You Known For?
What are you known for? Think about it for a minute. Are you known for being a great parent, a stellar employee/employer, a servant, a peacemaker, joyful, teacher, gracious…. We could go on and on. I am wondering what I am known for? Those are all great traits, but Jesus said, they will know you are my disciples by your Read More
A Root of Bitterness
Recently I had the opportunity to serve at a beautiful event! It was a big undertaking and took lots of planning. It needed many hands to do the work so schedules were made and jobs delegated to make sure it went off without a hitch. But when the time for the big event came, some people did not fulfill their Read More
Unchanging Promises
When I find myself in the midst of trying circumstances, in lack, or in the middle of a storm, my tendency or temptation (and I think it is with most people) is to put my eyes on the current troubling situation. But I find that when I purposefully focus my attention in prayer on the Lord and His word instead, Read More
