Partnership or Not?

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 really respond. She asked my opinion and I gave it....

The Secret is in the Seed

After I had written the May Partner letter and sent it out, I walked outside to water my plants. I had written on the familiar scripture in Luke that says; A sower went out to sow his seed. And as he sowed, some fell by the wayside; and it was...

Without Question or Delay

Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Colossians 3:12 There are a few subjects I can’t seem to move past lately, humility is one of them. Last week, a phrase continually came to mind concerning humility. It was humility...

Listen from the Inside

  As I was preparing for work, I was thinking about something that happened the day before. The day before Breanne had informed me that Bryson had a doctor’s appointment that day. She said he had a cough and she was going to take him to the doctor to have...

Last Season’s Seed

“Don’t you realize, you are now eating the harvest from the seeds you sowed last season?” This is something God spoke to me just last 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...

Surpassing Every Obstacle

I am reminded today of an incident that once happened at our office. We were home on a Sunday when we received a call that someone had driven their car through our building. I was stunned. It is a brick building. One that you would have to go up over...

Putting Debt to Flight

I always look forward to Partner Prayer Call nights. This week’s call excited me beyond imagination. It wasn’t being able to gather with our partners, although I love that. It wasn’t the teaching, although I had studied diligently for it. For me, this time, it was the prayer time. Not...

Observe the Clouds

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....

Thrust in the Sickle

Put in the sickle. This phrase has remained in my spirit for the past week. Because this phrase wouldn’t leave me, I began to study the word concerning putting in our sickle. I found two scriptures I felt were relevant to my study. Put in the sickle, for the harvest...

Prayer for our Nation

Father God- as members of Your Ekklesia we come to You and thank You for all that You are working out behind the scenes. We release warring angels to our president and police officers and all righteous people in government today so that they accomplish Your will and things they...

Refuse to be Bound

Transparency. I am often told how transparent I am in my writings. In other words, I don’t hide my flaws. I often share them. I am real and human. I make mistakes like everyone else. But. I continue to seek God. I continue to ask him to change me daily....

Unlikely Package

I want to share a story with you today. A true story. An enlightening story. One day last week, Breanne and I were taking care of some business outside of the office. Because this business took up most of our day, we didn’t plan to go to the office. That...

A Person of Influence

Over the weekend I glanced back over a book I had once read. The book is by my friend, Pastor Karen Jethroe. As I read I was reminded of one part that has remained with me since first reading this book. It was the part about influence. Pastor Karen gave...

Faith Without Works

Faith without works is dead. We have all heard this scripture but today I saw it differently. I was reading the book of James when I came to these scriptures. For some reason I read and reread it over and over again. Suddenly I began to see this in a...

The Way Out of Lack

The Way Out of Lack If you have been with us very long, you may recall what I am about to share with you. Years ago, while I was working for a ministry in Cleveland, I sought God about finances. You see, I did not make enough money each week...

Atmosphere of Peace

After yesterday's writing, I was reminded of something Breanne once shared with me. She had met someone in ministry and was sharing some things with her. She shared with me how she told her about the difficult challenge I went through with my Dad dying of cancer, then Jesse dying...
