Great Anticipation

Looking back at the different phases in our life is like reviewing a book. Each chapter starts with great anticipation and usually ends with reflection and questions of tomorrow.

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.

The Promises of God

A promise is valuable only if the one making it has trustworthy character and the ability to carry through. Our heavenly Father is truthful, faithful, loving, and all-powerful.

Be Patient

Don’t we all go through moments of impatience, if not verbally, then in our thoughts? The Holy Spirit reminded me of that just yesterday, I was impatient with a new waitress at a coffee shop.

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

How beautiful are His ways with you; how beautiful is His work within you.

Who’s There?

We cannot close our ears to Christ’s steady knocks and think he will give up. He never will. Jesus wants us to welcome him in with hearts hungering to spend time with him.

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.

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.

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?

What Leads You Today?

Father God, Today I want to be LED by Your Spirit in a fresh way. Please show me Your loving mercies as I look for them. Encourage my heart and show me who I can encourage.

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.

Don’t Forget a Single Blessing

Your best weapon against the enemies attacks is a good memory. Don’t forget a single blessing! 1 Corinthians 6:20 says,“You have been bought with a price. You belong to God.” God’s message for 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.
