I like how The Passion Bible translates this... "Whenever my busy thoughts were out of control, the soothing comfort of your presence calmed me down and overwhelmed me with delight." I'd much rather be overwhelmed with God's presence filling me with delight than anxious thoughts. It's so amazing that He invites us to give all… Continue reading Anxiety Quote
From the book Indestructible by Blake Healy, these sentences really grabbed my attention: "The enemy is fighting to get you to see things his way because a simple act can release a massive amount of God's goodness, leaving a mark that can last for generations." Satan does not want us to realize the… Continue reading Focus On The Light
There are many, many concerns on my mind these days. They kind of swirl around in the background as I go through my day. I'm not especially so worried that I can't do all that I need to, but yes, this list is ever-prevalent, just a thought away from giving me stress if I allow… Continue reading 11:11
Most of my life I have felt left out, looked over, and that I didn’t really fit in or belong. Some of this was because I moved so many times during my school years. I was always trying to fit into a new crowd of people who already had their cliques. And I was… Continue reading Ever Feel Like You don’t Belong?
Guide me in Your truth and teach me, For You are the God of my salvation; For You (and only You) I wait (expectantly) all the day long. Psalm 25:5 Amplified Bible The Passion Bible translation has this footnote that knocked my socks off: “The Hebrew word most commonly translated as “wait”, qavah, also means… Continue reading Wrapped In His Heart
Warning: long post ahead. Hopefully your attention span is longer than the average person's (eight whole seconds) because this is really good stuff. Grab a cup of something and take a minute. I.Love.Sparkles! Anything is better with sparkles--clothes, nails, shoes, jewelry—shoot, I’d wear sparkles on my face if I could do it without looking… Continue reading God Sings? Really?
Focus! It seems we are always hearing how important focus is to reaching our goals and bringing our desires to us. However, sometimes our focus is totally off. We work hard, do what we think we should, spin our wheels, and run faster on the hamster wheel, only to remain stagnant. Why do you suppose… Continue reading Numb Choices Aren’t Smart
"Be filled with the fullness of the Spirit of God and your hearts will overflow with a joyful song to the Lord. Keep speaking to each other with words of Scripture, singing the Psalms with praises and spontaneous songs given by the Spirit! Always give thanks to Father God for all things and every person… Continue reading Sing Your Heart’s Song!
If you had known me for the last several decades, you would know that I've walked though some pretty deep valleys. There has been an awful lot of loss in my life. Both my parents and both of my siblings died of cancer. So my whole immediate family is gone. I lost my beautiful home.… Continue reading How? Speaking The Name of Jesus!
So many of us hold as truth the myths, or lies, that govern our lives, our choices, and our behaviors! I know I did (at time I still do, I'm sure). BUT...Who taught us these lies/myths we believe are true? The old adage "If you tell a lie long enough it becomes truth to you"… Continue reading Are You Believing Lies?
