Soaking up the Son

I could only read four verses today before I was just overcome with gratefulness and indebtedness to Christ. Netflix can wait, God can wait too, but I choose to follow Him.  He truly fills my soul. I want to encourage you to choose wisely…perspective of the world or...

Struggling with sin? I’m pretty confident to say that the answer to this question is “Yes”. Remember that although there is a war raging within your mind, which is the power of sin, there is a greater power that can dominate…the power of the Holy Spirit. When you...

I feel like the following is a PSA for newbies to Florida and our beaches. In the last journal entry, I shared Romans 7:7-13. In verse 9 it mentions, “At one time I lived without understanding the law…” In the margin of my bible I had written “You know what you know....

The older I get the more unwanted hair appear where I really don't care to have them, and most of the time I don’t even realize they are there. It’s not until I look into a magnified mirror that I gasped with a “what the heck” or “oh no” comment to myself. Why didn’t...

Can you imagine not gathering with your family or friends or church group? Wait! Of course you can. We just survived a world pandemic where many restrictions were put on all. So…sure…imagining not getting together with others is very fresh in your mind. You may even...

When my husband went on a trip six time zones away, I noticed that when it was around the time that he were to be calling me, I had my phone on or near me at all times, prepared to answer when Tim called. I didn’t want to miss a call. One afternoon, while I was...

I know that you heard about him, and in him you were taught the truth. Yes, the truth is in Jesus. You were taught to leave your old self. This means that you must stop living the evil way you lived before. That old self gets worse and worse, because people are fooled...

Quit talking about yourself, and get others talking about themselves Early this morning, I was walking down the beach. When passing by someone, I would create a story in my mind about them. People of all ages. One older gentleman was gingerly walking with walking...

Just as their are dangerous sharks in the waters (above is  a 9’ tiger shark off the west coast of Florida), there are dangers in life that can entrap you. Beware. The theme for Romans still remains “Right in His sight’, yet we just may have a new theme today:...
