This morning I had an enlightening conversation with a friend about trusting God. We talked about the difference of faith in God and trusting God. As we did, I was reminded of a few areas of my own life where trusting God is a challenge, one that I obviously need...
While I was listening to the Word of God, one scripture, that I have heard a million times, jumped in my spirit. The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it...

It was late Saturday night, my ten-year-old granddaughter was spending the weekend with me. This child is full of energy and never stops talking. She had taken her bath for the night and was preparing for bedtime. As I watched her run giggling down the hallway, this thought came to...
This week Brailee received a gift from Kelita, a dandelion, and it took me back to something that happened a few years ago and the writing God gave me that day… Let us not grow weary in well-doing, for in due time we will reap a harvest, if we do...
John 1:1 in my opinion, is one of the most powerful scriptures in the Bible. It says, In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The word and God/ Jesus are one. When we eat of the word, we are receiving...
Don’t rejoice over me, o my enemy; when I fall, I shall arise, when I sit in darkness, the Lord will be a light to me. Micah 7:8 This scripture found in Micah has been one of my favorite scriptures. When I fall – I shall arise. As Christians, we...

Several times over the weekend I heard the same message preached by several different ministers. It felt like a warning message to me, perhaps to you as well. Each message was talking about relationships. Not only marriage, but friends as well. I believe it is more important than ever who...
Surrounded…that’s how I felt as I opened the card from someone I had never met. 1 Thess. 5:11 says, “Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.” Col. 3:13 says, “Bear with each other.” This wonderful woman was being, not only a...
I have always loved the scriptures about a sweet-smelling sacrifice. One day I was meditating on this when the Lord began to share with me, that it is not all about the smell, but what it represents. Leviticus 2:9 says, “It is an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma...
I had a strange morning this week. On my way to work I could sense God prompting me to pray about a situation I had prayed about for years. In frustration I said, “God, I don't know anything else to pray, I have prayed everything I know to pray. Holy...
