Become a Christian
In your personal opinion, what do you understand it takes for a person to go to heaven? It is as simple as spelling the word faith out on each finger.
Daily Walking with God
It's a new day…New Mercies!
"One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all." Ephesians 4:6 I'm am just a tool for my Carpenter...clay for The Potter...a sheep for my Shepherd. Each day I pray for God to speak to me and through me. Years ago I thought it was...
One Step at a Time
"The LORD directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives." Psalm 37:23 This photo may not seem like much to you, but for me it is HUGE. Every since I broke my tibia and fibula and dislocated my ankle, the day before Thanksgiving, I've...
God is at work, even when you can't see it.
God is doing amazing things, even if you can’t see them. I have witnessed meteor showers before, and they are spectacular! Last night Tim informed me that another meteor shower, “The Geminids”, were occurring. I set my alarm for earlier than normal, rose out of bed,...
I am "Being Still"!!
Be still and know… I am, God, I am, but… If you haven’t heard, I had broken my tibia and fibula and dislocated my ankle the day before Thanksgiving. I am so blessed!! Blessed for brokenness? Well…yes…of course…in various ways. For this current blessedness, I am...
"Crowned One"
The Lord Himself will give you the sign, Look! The virgin will conceive a child! She will give birth to a son and will call Him Immanuel (which means ‘God is with us’). Isaiah 7:14 What does your name mean? I grew up being reminded that my name means “crowned one”. I...
A Post-it Blessing
Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble, and keep on praying. Romans 12:12 What a way to make a girl feel comfortable and like she’s surrounded by God’s grace. Yesterday I entered through the doors at Advance Surgical Center in Tampa. When I checked in I...
I will exalt Him
Psalm 16:7-8, “I will bless the Lord who guides me; even at night my heart instructs me. I know the Lord is always with me. I will not be shaken, for He is right beside me.” Okay, so if He is guiding me and always beside me, why do I make dumb choices? Folks, our...
A Proven Man of God
Today is my husband’s birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, TIM! Allow me to share something, okay…a few things, with you about Tim. Throughout these past thirteen days he has proven himself to be a true man of God. In Philippians 2:14 it says, “Do everything without grumbling or...
Family Love
We love because He first loved us. 1 John 4:19 We are family. Are we perfect? No. Do we always get along or agree? Ha! Do we drive each other crazy? In good and bad ways. We may not always like each other, but we so do LOVE each other. It thrills my soul when I have...
There must be division…
1 Corinthians 11:19, “There must be divisions among you so that you who have God’s approval will be recognized.” Over the past year, it has been quite evident how divided our country is over this past presidential election. It truly saddens me. Yet, this isn’t...
Brokenness Leads to Healing
I must find the comedy in this: Last week when the electrician went to hang my new pendants above the kitchen island, he carefully opened the box and said, “Ut-oh, you need to see this. I haven’t moved this box and notice what’s inside.” My husband and I peered inside...
A Reason to Count Your Blessings
HAPPY THANKSGIVING, Y’ALL! Counting our blessings need not to be something we do or talk about just this time of the year, but for always. Yet, during this season of thanks our blessings are brought to the forefront of our minds and pressed on our hearts, and...
