It’s Time to Dream Again

Lately, I have witnessed so many people settling for less, whether in life, love, relationships, or even in their walk with God. Not only has fear set in, but complacency as well.

The Evidence

How can I experience gentleness in a world that is harsh and demanding and always wanting things its own way?

A Return to Normalcy

Over the past months, I’ve had a lot of time to reflect on what I miss most in life during the time of the pandemic.

Live Like Jesus

Dear Heavenly Father, thank you that your Word is faithful. Through the Holy Spirit, empower me to embrace your mantle of obedience so that I can daily and faithfully walk in your Word and live more like Jesus.

Just Be

Be still and know that I AM . . . Even though I know He is God, do I let Him be God over my life? Do I put Him on the back burner until I need His presence?

Skewed Values

In a world with skewed values, and false promises, and fleeting fame, what can we boast in other than the steadfastness of the Lord's love, the incredible riches of the Lord's grace, the incomparable supply of the Lord's blessings, the sweetness of the Lord's people, the mercy of the Lord's plan for our salvation, the promise of the Lord's tomorrow, the..... of the Lord's...!

Give Jesus Your Boat

Master, help us give up our boats which are really only symbols of our own accomplishment. Help us trust you with all that we have and are and then expectantly wait for all that you wish to do in and through us.

A Set Time

Tempers are flaring and many are contemplating giving up and letting go of their promises from the Lord. I beseech you today my brothers and sisters to hold on just a little while longer.

Where to Give Yourself First

So very simple!! First I give myself to the Lord. I dip into the well of all He is and draw up all that I need for this moment and this day. THEN I go and give out of that to others.

New Life for Old

So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me— I have never been so fully alive, free, fresh …new wine, new joys, new purpose.

Hope in the Middle of Despair

Sometimes our circumstances seem overwhelming. We may feel like we will never get out of the particularly bothersome situation we are in.

Our Loving Sacrificial Savior

Gracious Father, I praise you from the bottom of my heart for providing Jesus as my Savior. At the same time, dear Father, I confess to you I struggle with sin.

Come and Trust

Come and Trust: “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28

If You Will, You Can

Trust requires humility. Asking admits need. Expressing our deepest desire leaves us vulnerable. By seeking a specific outcome, we risk disappointment.

Not Blind, But Reasonable

In the eyes of many, the Christian faith is a leap into the unknown, a belief that goes beyond rationality, like the “wish upon a star” fairy tale. If I’m honest, faith sometimes feels that way to me too.

Been There Done That

A small hug, a hand on the arm or some small gesture of contact if no words come to mind. A gesture that says, "I'm here for you."

Simplicity of God’s Love

The simplicity of God’s love, not our eloquence or expertise is what touches a person’s life.

2020-09-26

Greater Things

Regardless of how difficult the times, those who have been born again by the grace of God, redeemed and forgiven by the blood of Christ, adopted into God’s heavenly family, indwelt by and sealed with the Holy Spirit, given an eternal home in Heaven and empowered by God for significant service have no right to be anything but optimistic.

Immeasurably More

“Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us,” Ephesians 3:20 (NIV)

What Are You Listening To?

Thought. Who are you listening to in your life? We can hear all sorts of different voices, but we can follow only one. So who are you going to listen to as you make your decisions about morality, values, ethics, and character?

Worried About Your Needs?

Remembering God’s past provisions will help you realize he will provide again and again. God’s hands are not too short to reach out to you.

We All Need It

It’s not possible for our limited human minds to fully understand God’s gift of peace to our weary souls.

Being Angry

I used to think that Christians should never get angry, but the Bible acknowledges that we will be angry sometimes. The issue is what we do with our anger.

Dealing With Anger

Some people want to hang on to ill feelings, but nursing a resentful attitude isn’t sustainable; anger must be put aside. If we retain our “right” to hold grudges, we can’t expect to live in the new nature Christ has created for us.
