Forgive Myself?
You may have experienced God’s love and forgiveness, but here’s a question…Do you forgive yourself? It seems that many of us struggle with this act-of-the-heart which would release us from something we’ve done in our past and the self-guilt and shame that plagues us. Several of us discussed this unforgiveness during a Bible study I’m… Continue reading Forgive Myself?
“Fasting” From the World?
I've been reading through Matthew 6. Today as I read verse 24, “How can you serve two masters”, I saw there was a footnote. I love The Passion Translation! The translators have taken all the original language writings, and then more, to give us a more accurate verbiage. The footnote said, “There is found after… Continue reading “Fasting” From the World?
Whatever Is Pure
(Originally written in June of 2012, I decided it still had some good points, so posting it now.) I am usually a very positive person.

Be Like Fireflies

How? Speaking The Name of Jesus!
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!
God Please Do It Again!
Our world cries out for God's touch! Now is the time to storm the gates of heaven, worship our God, and petition His throne for a mighty move on the earth. This song helps me do that. God please do it again. I'm praying for our nation and the world. Won't you sing with me?… Continue reading God Please Do It Again!
Come On, Shine That Light!
Right now you may not feel much like shining. I know. It's a turbulent and strange time in our world. But, guess what? YOU are important. Oh, I know, you are aware of this. That's why you are trying to stay well and not get this virus. Your kids, husband, parents, friends, co-workers need… Continue reading Come On, Shine That Light!
Are You Tired? Afraid? Heavy?
Jesus says,"Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you'll recover your life. I'll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me--watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won't lay anything heavy or… Continue reading Are You Tired? Afraid? Heavy?
