What is Your Purpose?

There I was, this morning, on the back deck of my house. I was enjoying the beauty of the atmosphere. It was early morning, and it seemed as though I was the only person awake in the neighborhood. I’m sure I wasn’t, but that is what I felt. As I communed with God, the birdsContinue reading “What is Your Purpose?”

Prayer

There are so many ways to pray. We can pray with our eyes open or closed. We can pray aloud or silently. We can speak our prayers or sing them. Any way to communicate with God is appropriate when you are seeking Him. And since, we are looking for what prayer is, I decided toContinue reading “Prayer”

The Glory of God

The Glory of God. What does that mean? That is something that I seek to explore in this post. While reading John 17, I began wondering about Jesus’ prayer to the Father. Specifically, I wanted to dive into what He was asking the Father for. So beginning the prayer, He states, “glorify the Son thatContinue reading “The Glory of God”

Proverbs 25:11-14

I have been reading through Proverbs over the past year, and there have been some amazing insights that God has revealed to me. I have to admit, I did not like some of those insights because they convicted me in some areas of my life that I did not want to admit to. There wasContinue reading “Proverbs 25:11-14”

Train Dream

There is going to come a point in time when one will not only be able to physically die, but also spiritually one will not be able to die to self (i.e., salvation, self-will). There will be a large scale disappearance of people. However the world will not stop working and functioning as a society.Continue reading “Train Dream”

This Morning

The first thing I notice when I walk out onto the back porch this morning is the glisten of the frost as the light reflects from the “street” light. You read that right. There is a “street” light situated between my back yard and the neighbor’s yard behind my house. It makes little sense toContinue reading “This Morning”

Lord, Strengthen Us

It has been a very trying time in this house. There have been a number of issues that have to be worked out soon. However, I am tired. Oh so tired! Many of the tasks required to be done are just so very draining, and it is difficult to find the motivation to finish thisContinue reading “Lord, Strengthen Us”

Our Thanksgiving Tradition

When I first began to date my husband all those years ago, I thought about our future a lot. Like most couples, there is so much to think about, such as where to live, marriage, children, church, etc. One of the things that I approached him with was holidays. What will the future look likeContinue reading “Our Thanksgiving Tradition”

The Servant Lived in Rejection

Have you ever went through a season of your life where everywhere you turned you felt rejected and not welcome anywhere? That is exactly what Jesus experienced. It seems like everywhere He turned the Pharisees or the Sanhedrin or various other members of society sought out times to trip Him up, shun Him, or triedContinue reading “The Servant Lived in Rejection”

When Things Get Bad

Today is just another one of those days when I am super introspective. On these days, I think about how the events of my past have led me to who I am in my character today. So, of course, this leads me down a rabbit hole in remembering all of the past events, the decisionsContinue reading “When Things Get Bad”
