Walking with God

Have you visited the YouTube channel yet for a Soaking up The Son? I want to encourage you to do because there are times, especially while reading through various books in the bible, that I may not post directly to the website or instagram or Facebook, only to...

I am reminded how cynical I can be to those who are down and out.  You know...the ones you see holding signs on the side of the road, and you may wonder, “Are they really in need, or is this a scam?”.  When reading Acts 3:1-11 God whispered His own sweet reminders to...

This morning I woke up, correction...God woke me up, at 3:08.  I tried to go back to sleep.  Nah. I lay there praying for others, and praying that I can go back to sleep.  Finally, after a while, I said, “Forget it.  I’ll get up and keep reading Acts.”  When my feet...

The book of Acts is full of life lessons on love and grace.  It will encourage you to literally ACT on your faith, and motivate you to tap into the boldness within you to share Jesus.   I just finished reading the book of Daniel on video and sharing some thoughts. ...

Super Bowl 55 takes place this weekend.  This electrifying event transpires just 25 miles away from my front door. I say electrifying for two reasons…I’ve been there before and know the feeling of being a fan engulfed in the experience, and my home team is playing,...

I had just pumped gas into my vehicle and was walking into the store, when a penny caught my eye.  I’m not one for superstition and worry about whether the coin is heads up or tails up, I just always pick up the deserted coin and say “In God we trust.”  Into the...

Today, February the second, is Groundhog Day.  I remember having fun activities planned for my students on this day.  We would talk about groundhog Phil and his history.  Votes were cast to see if he would see his shadow or not.  You grow to always know the end result...

Be prepared. You’re up against far more than you can handle on your own. Take all the help you can get, every weapon God has issued, so that when it’s all over but the shouting you’ll still be on your feet. Truth, righteousness, peace, faith, and salvation are more...

“Take the high road.”  “Don’t be a doormat.” Have you ever heard of or said these statements?   Well, see the gentle, yet strong, reminders that God gave me this weekend while on a road trip home from GA. https://youtu.be/vWlLuydVtMg God has chosen you and made you...

For the past few mornings I’ve awakened, rolled over to see the time, and noticed it was 5:48...e-ve-ry-morning!  This morning, I smiled, shook my head, and said, “Okay, God, let’s get busy.” The prayer requests list that is on the back of my door was already...

Well, I did it.  With tears gently streaming down my face, I read the final (new) chapter of My Emmaus: God is Faithful 24/7. Mike’s final chapter had me smiling at the beginning. I smiled because I could sense a similarity in our style of writing.  He shared a story...

I believe the book of Daniel is the perfect book to be reading during this season.  The book of Daniel is a reminder that GOD IS IN CONTROL, God rescues, there is triumph of faith, and to daily live with courage. Can you use some courage, faith, rescuing, and a...
