A Month of New Beginnings…

Another August is here.  And I am here.  For that I am so very thankful. You see, in February I had a medical issue come out of nowhere – it was not something I expected in any way – it took me by surprise. It happened suddenly and with a vengeance.  The enemy planned to […]

When God Says….”Pay Attention”

When God Says… “Pay Attention”    Monday night I had a restless night’s sleep, with a jumble of dreams. Dreams are not uncommon for me.  I often dream, some God dreams and some not.  Yet I have always been able to distinguish when a dream was from God.  At least I thought I had. Tuesday […]

The Agreement of Partnership

Amos 3:3 says, “Can two walk together unless they agree?” This scripture came to mind during a conversation with a friend. We were talking about a biblical situation when she gave me her frank opinion on the subject. I didn’t respond. She asked my opinion and I gave it. I didn’t elaborate. I simply became […]

God’s Voice of Peace

 Last week we talked about the ways in which God speaks.  Today, I want to revisit hearing God’s voice. As I shared earlier, there are many ways in which God speaks.  We have talked about a few of them.  Today, I want to talk about three more. God speaks through things in our natural surroundings. […]

Harvest from Seasons of Sowing

“Don’t you realize, you are now eating the harvest from the seeds you sowed last season?” This is something God spoke to me this week… You may recall, I shared with you how God began speaking to me in January about the scripture found in Deuteronomy 8:18; But you shall remember the LORD your God, […]

A God Who Speaks

I often am asked the question, “How do you know when God speaks?” For me, the answer can be simple or complex. It takes time to learn His voice.  It takes time to learn the different ways He speaks.  But He is always speaking.  His voice is all around us.  We simply must learn to […]

When God Stirs Us

“This writing stirred me.” These are the words I read from a partner email.  He was referring to a previous writing. As I read his email, my mind quickly went to John 5:4. For an angel went down at a certain time into the pool and stirred up the water; then whoever stepped in first, […]

God’s Word Alone is Our Source

Ecclesiastes 11:4 has always been an insightful scripture to me.  As I read it today, I thought about it in an entirely different way. The scripture says, “He that observes the wind will not sow, he who regards the clouds will not reap.” I have often written on this scripture.  Previous writings have focused on […]

You Create the Atmosphere

For the past few days, I have spent more time in praise and worship than I have in some time.  This morning, as I was worshipping God, I could feel how different the atmosphere was surrounding me and throughout my home.  For that I am so very thankful. It’s been a hard few months for […]

Time to Change our Focus

It is during the darkest moments of our life that we must shift our focus to clearly see the light. I thought of this one day as my daughter shared an insightful truth with me. My daughter has battled anxiety in the past.  When driving, there are some long bridges over deep waters that would […]

The Wind is Here

Although my grandkids are growing up way too fast, I often think of some of the memories we have made.  This past week, as the winds became strong in my area, I was reminded of a particular time a few years ago. It was a time of kite flying. I sat on my back porch […]

Breaking Up Fallow Ground

Today, I want to talk to you about the soil of your heart.  It is something God has been speaking to me about and I want to share it with you. Tilling up the soil of our heart. I have found that there are certain promises of God that we can easily believe and receive.  […]

Take Time to be Kind

My sister shared a story with me online yesterday.  It touched my heart and I wanted to share it with you – perhaps you have already read it – if so…it’s always a good time to refresh a great story. I don’t know who the original author is…but I love this story. I arrived at […]

Exposing Enemy Plans

I want to share an email with you today that I once received from a partner.  It was power packed then and the words are still life changing today. If you will do what she is doing, you too can begin to see the results she is seeing. I have said it over and again, […]

True Freedom!

As we celebrate Independence Day in America on July 4th, let us remember, our nation was founded upon the idea that God created all humans to be free. The Declaration of Independence states that we, the people, are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit […]

Come Back Time!

Micah 7:8 says, “Do not rejoice over me, my enemy; When I fall, I will arise; When I sit in darkness, The Lord will be a light to me.” I love this scripture!  To me it is the ultimate comeback scripture. A few years ago, I was reading about a boxer who had a comeback […]

Life of Impact

I stood in my kitchen, peering out the window.  Worship music was playing in the background.  Suddenly the presence of God came over me and I lifted my hands in worship.  Tears rolled down my face as I entered that wonderful intimate place of my Fathers presence.  As I closed my eyes, I was taken […]

Your Bond

This morning, as I was talking to the Lord, He reminded me of the first thing He ever showed me in the word of God. It is found in Psalm 15:4. But he honors those who fear the Lord; He who swears to his own hurt and does not change. Let’s look at this same […]
