In a recent conversation with a friend, we talked about the importance of building a wall around us. A wall of protection. A wall of the Word of God. My friend shared with me how he once confessed healing scriptures over himself daily…for a while, at least. Then he stopped. Life got busy and he […]
Over the past few days, I have been thinking about something I heard Joyce Meyer teach many years ago. She was talking about how most of us have numerous things we need to pray about in our life at any given time. I can certainly relate, how about you? At any given time, I am […]
Most of us are familiar with the scripture found in Romans 11:29: For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable. Many, if not all of us, think of the scriptures found in Ephesians when we think about the gifts of God… Therefore, He says: “When He ascended on high, He led captivity captive, […]
Many years ago, I was toiling and struggling trying to make something happen for a project. In the midst of this, God spoke something profound to me. Something that has been a guide for a long time. “The way you attain a thing, is the way the thing must be maintained.” In other words, if […]
In 2022, we entered our third year dealing with Covid19, the pandemic and all that entails. People are weary and frustrated. It is a breeding ground for hopelessness. Some are beginning to question their faith, and their prayers. Many are asking, “why even pray, it’s not working.” Oh, but yes, it is! Recently God led […]
This morning I was reading something online when God reminded me of a time in my past. My friends and I were at a baseball game, it was the final game in a series. The team who won this game would be the champions for that season. It was the bottom of the eighth inning […]
I heard a story years ago that keeps coming to mind this week. God always brings it to mind when I need to be reminded of HIS way to walk through storms and difficult seasons. This story helps me in times like that. Years ago, a farmer owned land along the Atlantic seacoast. He constantly […]
Steady Yourself Yesterday, as I spent time with the Lord, I began to hear five words in my spirit. “Steady yourself in the Lord.” At first, I thought I was hearing, “strengthen yourself in the Lord,” I knew that was scriptural and it sounded more natural to me. But no, I was hearing, […]
In the past few days, I have heard a statement in my spirit that simply won’t go away. It is this; “Change the Narrative.” Once again, we are hearing over and again, negative news concerning this pandemic. Sadly, once again, Christians everywhere are repeating what they are hearing said from news media, CDC, and other […]
Beginning strong is easy. It is one of the reasons many look forward to a new year on the calendar. It’s the hope of a fresh start, a new beginning. A do-over, so to speak. But what about finishing strong? It can prove to be more of a challenge. As this year ends, I hear […]

I asked Kelita to write an article about how she navigated the loss of her sister this year. Many of us have lost loved ones in the past two years – it is my prayer that her story brings you comfort, peace and hope. – Kim Seems impossible, doesn’t it? Navigating loss with joy. […]
One morning last week, I awoke with a sobering feeling. Sometimes God does that with me, he gives me a feeling about something – not necessarily a word from God – just a feeling. This was a feeling I couldn’t shake therefore I began to seek God about it. The feeling didn’t go away, and […]
This week as the news media was predicting storms and tornados in my area, God reminded me of another time this same thing happened. It was a couple years ago; the news stations were warning everyone of severe weather coming our way – tornados were expected in our county. The day after the storms came […]

I once read a word by Bill Burns that the Lord led me back to this week and I want to share it with you. It said, “Listen, My people. Listen. I am shouting from the roof tops; this is the season of great joy. And, great joy I will release to you, which will […]
In my prayer time yesterday, I began to think back over the past year. I was pondering on things I was thankful for. This year has been a hard year – make no mistake about it. However, through it all God’s faithfulness shone brighter and brighter with each passing month. We know God is faithful, […]
Here we are in December – the end of another year – it seems impossible yet here we are. This is the time of year many look back over the previous months and the prayers they have been praying. It’s the time of year when most decide if their prayers haven’t been answered yet, it […]
Over the weekend, my sister, daughter, and I visited a quilting store out of town. We have only been there a handful of times – but it is one of our favorite places. While driving home, I said to my daughter, “I love going there. It always amazes me that they know all our names […]
This week I received an email and a check from one of our partners. The note said, “This is for you Kim, for the 52 weeks that you have encouraged me this year.” The check was for $52. I must say, I was blessed. Not only by the gift but the thought behind it…the fifty-two […]
