As I was reading past soakinguptheson.com journal entries on Good Friday, I came across the below insertion. Here’s the journal entry it was in: https://soakinguptheson.com/new/daily-journaling/he-is-coming-back/ When I typed in “Good Friday” in the search portion of...

If we say that we have no sin, we are fooling ourselves, and the truth is not in us. But if we confess our sins, God will forgive us. We can trust God to do this. He always does what is right. He will make us clean from all the wrong things we have done. If we say...

Twenty five years ago. Where were you 25 years ago?  Some may say “I wasn’t even born”, others may say “1996…I was dancing under the stars to Celine Dion’s number one hit ‘Because you loved me’”...well, maybe not that lovey dovey, but then again.... I can tell you...

Reading through the books of Acts is encouraging.   I haven’t been doing the video for each chapter lately because I’ve been busy with the 2021 Florida Strawberry Festival. But...I couldn’t wait to share the powerful insight I gained from reading Acts 17. I want to...

Have you ever felt like your life is spinning ‘round and ‘round?  Do you need some focus or direction in your life?  Someone may be saying, “What time is it?” Because you feel that way daily. Their heads were spinning; they couldn’t make head or tail of any of it....

This weekend I went with my Shuff men on my first quail hunt.  I had no expectations, except to get at least one quail and have fun with my guys. When quail is mentioned in the bible, it is evident that it is an example of how God provides. That evening, flocks of...

Recently I’ve been reminded to stop and appreciate the things in life we just may take for granted and to be grateful for what we have. While visiting with a friend, who was hospitalized for over a month with COVID, we talked about how precious it is to simply breathe...

Y’all, God’s word IS alive and active.   The more you dive into God’s word, the more you’ll be able to apply silly, or not so silly, situations in life to his word.   When this gust of wind blew through our outdoor area, it made me think about what I’ve been reading...

Do you have a Valentine?   Well, if you think you don’t, think again.  If you are a child of God, He says that you are His.  “Don’t be afraid. I saved you. I named you. You are mine.” Isaiah 43:1 (emphasis mine) God loves you!  You are His! Do you remember receiving a...
