The time has come.

Four years ago I was extremely blessed to had been a part of the pastor search committee at my church.  We met almost every week for four months.  The beginning and end of each meeting was bathed in sincere prayer from each of us, as our knees were on the floor, heads...

Respected or Popular?

Often as a Christian you will have to do things that may not make you popular with others.  You may do what is right and good for the final outcome, but others may not appreciate what you do at that moment. A friend of mine’s dad would tell his three girls, “Do you...

Faith.

I wanna know more! Every time I read the story of Abraham’s faith being tested in Genesis 22, I just want to know what in the world was going through both Abraham and his son’s, Isaac, mind. First of all, God talked to Abraham.  Get that first.  When you read, it was...

There's Something about a Swing

We used to have a tree swing in our front yard when all the kids were young.  The grass was well worn underneath that swing.  The children, and their friends, loved playing on it.  Heck, so did I.  There’s just something about a swing that makes you feel like your...

Pranked or Lesson Learned?

I feel like I’ve just been pranked.  I just sat here for twenty minutes journaling, and my computer decided to shut down and reconfigure.  I was just about to type “Blessings to you”, when it all disappeared.  Ugh!  I didn’t worry too much because when it has happened...

Do you talk to God?

Prayer.  Talking to God.  I couldn’t count the number of times a day I talk to God.  Before I even tell my husband good morning or take a step out of bed…I talk to God. Before my kids go about their day…I talk to God. Before I eat a meal…I talk to God. Before I drive...

He's Got You Covered

Have you ever driven down the road, you come to a sudden stop, and then your right arm automatically flings to the right to protect the person in the passenger seat?  I have many times, even when there wasn’t anyone in the seat.  It occurred as a spontaneous effect. ...

Shine

“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others,...

Be Blessed

  I feel so comforted and refreshed right now.  Why?  When I read “The Beatitudes” from The Message translation, I just sank in my chair, sighed, and felt the smile in my heart and on my face.  Read this and tell me if you don’t feel God’s arms just wrapping...

Believe It

  When I read the story of Noah and the ark in Genesis 7:1-9:7, I couldn’t help but spend some time researching about the latest findings.  A gentleman by the name of Ron Wyatt has a website detailing all his findings of the actual ark on the Ararat Mountain...
