A Time to Multiply

I want to share with you something that has been on my mind lately. It's about a message I received from the Lord regarding a time of multiplication for His people. I was reminded of a dream I had a few years ago, and I feel compelled to share it...

Get Your Expectations Up!

I was talking with a friend on the phone one night. I was sharing with her some seemingly small but wonderful things that had happened the week before. I told her, “I was not expecting these things at all!” When I made that statement, the Lord spoke to my heart...

When God Draws Near

Today I was thinking about a day, about this time last year, when I called my sister to chat for a bit. Life can get busy, and we don’t always have time to talk during the week. During our conversation, she mentioned an event that was happening that day and...

The Fast God Has Chosen

I have been thinking about something most of us don’t want to talk about or even think about. It has constantly been on my mind for several weeks. I tried to ignore it at first, but it just wouldn’t go away, it has stayed on my mind daily. I am...

Where Seeds Grow

God spoke something to me this week that was very profound. Something I have never really thought of even though I love gardening and love to watch seeds grow. He said, “Seeds grow in the darkness.” Allow me to share with you the context of this conversation. I was talking...

Plant Again

My sweet little Mama is 84 years old. She has more energy than anyone I know. She is always busy, moving and shaking. Her husband and her plant a garden each year. Not a small garden. They plant enough of a garden to feed several families. Last year, he dealt...

The Little Foxes

I love this time of year. I have probably said that every year about this time, but I truly do. I love watching my garden grow. Knowing the Bible principle of sowing and reaping, it never ceases to speak to me. I love how my plants love the rain. Sure,...

His Faithfulness in the Little Things

God never ceases to amaze me. I am always stunned by how much He cares about, not only the big challenges in our lives, but the little things as well. Let me share a story with you. I was out of town, visiting friends and serving communion to a group...

Pressing in Through Prayer

Just before the month of May began, I sent out a letter to our ministry partners. I asked them to consider to commit to praying for wholeness in the Body of Christ throughout the month of May. It was something I felt strongly the Lord prompted me to do. Thankfully,...

Don’t Settle for Less

A few years ago, God asked me if I wanted to have this one thing. After thinking about it for days, I realized while I did like the thing God was asking me about, if I could choose, it wouldn’t be my first choice. It would be my settled for....

Sowing & Harvest

Last week, almost nightly, I crawled into bed beyond exhaustion. Why? It’s time to prepare our garden, find the right seeds and plant the seeds we purchased. I love this time of year. I love gardening, it is very meditative to me, but it is also hard work. A type...

Not All Things are Good

One morning last week, I awoke at 4am. I tried to go back to sleep for a few minutes, however, sleep eluded me. As I lay there, God began to speak to me about the season we are in. He said it was birthing time. He shared with me that...
