Just Do It

Have you ever wondered if you are equipped to perform in a particular situation? Like me, do you think that you are not good enough to help others, or even yourself, when circumstances warrant help? We can look to what God has given us at the very moment we need it right where we are.Continue reading “Just Do It”

Only Once in a While

So. Have you every really thought about what it would feel like to step off of the boat onto the water? Even if someone told you that you you would be fine. You would walk on top of the water. It’s safe. Everyone standing around you is freaking out that you are crazy! What doesContinue reading “Only Once in a While”

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?”

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

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).

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”

To Know and Love God

There has been a lot of resources that guide Christians in various aspects of our lives. These are well-meaning resources, but without the foundation of the Holy Bible they are meaningless and misleading. The most important resources that we have – outside of God Himself speaking directly and audibly to us – are prayer andContinue reading “To Know and Love God”

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”
