Blowing down the corridors Of the dusty halls of past and memories Your love is cleansing, washing, Like the Swedish housekeeper Diligently ridding my heart Of the dank, dark corners and musty, ill-smelling places Opening windows, allowing clean, clear Sunshine to lighten the thoughts, Bathe my heart in sweet-smelling delight Curtains flutter as cobwebs are… Continue reading Cleansing
God gave me the best illustration!Ok, so some (most) of our backgrounds are a bit shady, or tumultuous. Definitely not made of the stuff you want to pass along to anybody! Perhaps you are thinking that you are just a nobody--no one particularly special. Yeah, yeah, so were the disciples, if you will--a bunch of… Continue reading Be Like Fireflies
Do you have a "firestarter" in your spirit? You know, something that can easily ignite the kindling of shame, guilt, and accusation that the enemy has so carefully laid? Firestarter=the lies that pile up, the beliefs you base all your self-loathing on, the guilt that eats away at you. Dearest friend, that's the enemy at… Continue reading Firestarter
I've been in the middle of several very trying situations. I know in my "knower" that God is in control, but I really love that when I'm in the midst of a mess He leads me to verses in His Word that encourage me!

I will ask myself the tough questions, I will experience my vulnerability and I will explore possibilities that I might not have ever considered.… Continue reading Alone But My True Self
“But Jesus refused to listen to what they were saying”, and said to Jairus—who had just been told his daughter had died, they were too late, no need to bother Jesus with this anymore—“Don’t yield to fear. All you need to do is keep on believing.” See Mark 5 for the account. Jesus proceeded… Continue reading Do Not Listen to the Voice of Fear!
Just a post to let you see how God works in our lives.. I had a pretty difficult session with God this morning. He revealed a root in my heart that He needed to pull out. That stupid root from when I was once again shown that I was not chosen or cherished. A time… Continue reading God Listens, God Heals, God Loves
Hey, do you need a bit o' inspiration? When my world fell apart, and I began rebuilding my life, God told me I was free from lies and to quit living small. God had a plan when He created me, and with Him, I could fulfill that plan. I found this quote early in that… Continue reading Don’t Tell Me
Busy. So very busy. Overwhelmed. Keeping up. Appearances. Tasks and “to do”s. He came into our world quietly. This birth was the most extravagant act of love in all of creation.Like all babies, pushing his way into the middle of people, some who would love, some who would hate. Some who would worship and adore,… Continue reading Your Heart
