Wounding Words
Shhh! You are too loud! Can't you just sit still for once? I don't have time for this (you). Your body language offends people. You're too big to dance. Don't be so bull-headed. If you are going to act like a baby, then... Words. They can speak life or death. As scripture tells us, there… Continue reading Wounding Words
The Great Recycler
Sometimes we just feel like garbage. I’m not talking about when we are ill, and our bodies feel like trash. I mean when someone degrades us, or we can’t accomplish something we have worked really hard at. Or when we realize that we have screwed up big time. Or we disappoint someone whom we love… Continue reading The Great Recycler
Confidence and Strength
I’ve been reading Psalm 139 a lot this week. If you haven’t read it in a while, or not at all, perhaps that should go on your list of things to do. The whole psalm is full of wonderful, life-giving words. Since I’ve read it several times, imagine my surprise today when God caused a… Continue reading Confidence and Strength
Write Your Own Script, My Dear
So really. Why would you follow in the exact footprints of someone else? They do not have YOUR unique qualities, gifts, abilities, and desires, and you don't have theirs. Should you fashion your life after what other people say? Should you let what is important to them be what guides you? Perhaps to some degree, if they are… Continue reading Write Your Own Script, My Dear
Priority #1

Without Jesus It’s All Downhill
You Are Loved
I pray you know that you are deeply, unconditionally, and sacrificially loved by the One Who created you, Who knows you by name, and Who has a purpose for you. Love and hugs, Passionista Mimi
The Goodness of God
On a Wednesday night a while back, my friend and I led worship at our church. She’d picked a song I didn’t know very well, “The Goodness of God”. As we practiced before service, I was caught up in this song, with almost a vibration humming in my spirit. Don’t you just love when Holy… Continue reading The Goodness of God
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?
