Today I was reminded of something the Lord showed me few years ago when I went to watch Brailee at one of her horse-riding lessons. At the time, Brailee was only four years old. This child has loved horses for her entire life. It is something within her. We thought it was a...
I sat at my desk, reading an email I had just received from a friend who was traveling for ministry work. Upon reading, I realized it was actually a prayer request. Due to the many attacks taking place at the time of her travels, she was requesting prayer. As I...
This week I wrote about the NEW God has for us being upon us. While I still know this is true, I also know it is up to us to walk into it. We must take that step, refusing to allow anything to hinder or stop us. Recently a close...
Lately I have been studying the Old Testament. This past weekend I found myself in the book of Joshua. This was a time when Moses had died and Joshua was in charge of taking the children of Israel into the Promised Land. It was the land God had already said...

One night, while visiting Breanne and her family, we had dinner and then sat down to watch a movie. I was sitting beside my granddaughter, Brailee, who is the most outspoken person I know. In one scene a man shook another man’s hand and said, “How are you doing? I...
I was reading a testimony from a man who was healed of cancer. He had only been given ten hours to live. In his interview he made a statement that I am sure is relatable to many of us. He said, “I fought fear more than I fought cancer.” When...
