The Pain of Letting Go

There comes a time, as parents, we must release our control and learn to trust God in the process.

Be Recharged

As Christians, we need to stay connected to our power source. Father, I thank you for the power and the strength that you provide us. I pray that we will not take lightly what you have made available to us.

The Walk of Faith

When we walk by faith, we are surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses. They walked the same walk before us. Many of them did not get to see the promises of God fulfilled on this side of Heaven.

Only by His Grace

“Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing.” John 15:5 (NLT) I have come to find that my efforts alone are worthless when it comes to achieving anything I set out to accomplish.

Steady Me, Lord

Psalm 40:2b “He set my feet upon a rock, steadying my footsteps and establishing my path.” Father, teach me to rest in your unfailing love. I admit I get lost trying to find my way through life’s ups and downs. I don’t always know where to go or what to think.

Let Gentleness Go Before You

Father, help us to be mindful today of our attitudes. Help us to pay close attention to the ones we hurt because we are not paying attention to the little things.

How Do You Get Free and Remain Free?

Have you ever been set free from something only to find yourself going right back to it? It can become a chaotic cycle.

Be Still

“Be still, and know that I am God!” Psalm 46:10a (NLT) Be still; these two words are not always comforting to a rescuer like me. It is hard sitting back and watching the ones you love suffer.

Hang in There

God is not slack concerning His promises to you. He has not forgotten about you. The very same words I have used to encourage myself time and time again, I use today to encourage you. It is not easy trusting a God that you don’t see. But the truth of the matter is, we serve a God that will never renege on His promises.

It’s In the Waiting..

Sometimes we just need to stop, breathe and listen to what God is saying. Life can be so busy at times that we miss the important instructions we need to go forward.

Courageous Living

It takes courage to trust that God is in total control when everything around you is in total chaos. It takes courage to stand up for righteousness in the midst of what is popular and accepted. It takes courage...

Keeping It Together In the Midst of Chaos

As we study the life of Jesus we find the answers we need to keep it together when our world turns topsy-turvy. We learn that we cannot function in our assignment without daily connection with our Father. He holds the key to keep us together even when we are falling apart.

Fight Back

Do your battle on your knees today. Do your battle in worship. God will fight for you.

What on Earth am I Here For?

Just as Jesus was born with a purpose, so were you and I. God set eternity in our hearts from the moment we got here. He knew we would need something to keep driving us forward.

Hiding Place

Father, wrap us in your arms today, and hide us as the storms of life rage round about us. Reassure us that we are the apples of your eye and that you will never leave us nor forsake us. In Jesus’ name we pray, amen.

Comparison is a Thief

Father grant us peace today about Your plans for us. Help us not to compare our journey to that of others

Take Rest Oh My Weary Soul

Take delight oh my weary soul. Take delight in the presence of Abba Father. Take delight in His loving arms.

Your Harvest Is On the Way

"And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart." Galatians 6:9

You Can Hope Again

When your heart has been shattered, it’s hard to make sense of all the broken pieces.

Don’t Always Believe What You See

So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever.” 2 Corinthians 4:17-18

2021-07-25

God’s Got You

I implore you today not to take trusting God lightly. He will always be by your side. He is a source of strength in our times of weakness.

2021-05-29

I Can’t Say it Enough

So often we take for granted the love of God. We often feel like there is no hope for us but I say to you today that regardless to where you have been, regardless to what you have done; God loves YOU.

Take One Step at a Time

Take One Step at a Time by Mary Pinckney. Sometimes the smallest step in the right direction ends up being the biggest step of your life. Tip toe if you must, but take the step!

His Timing

Many of us are experiencing challenging times right now. Frustration rises as we pray and anxiously await answers from the Lord. Tempers are flaring and many are probably contemplating giving up and letting go of their promises from the Lord.
