My husband is going through a tough time. Something is going on with his kidneys and doctors haven’t gotten to the bottom of it. We went to emergency yesterday and they admitted him late afternoon. But in the midst of all this scary stuff, I could see GOD’S timing and HIS kindness. I dropped my … More GOD IS SO VERY KIND
May we live our lives according to the Greatest Commandment. I am so very blessed that my Church really embraces this commandment. We are reminded of it often…….. MATTHEW 22: 37-39 “JESUS REPLIED: “LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND. THIS IS THE … More A RIGHTEOUS IMPACT
Over time in our walk with JESUS a spirit of indebtedness is worked right into us. WE OWE JESUS OUR WHOLE LIVES! No one else died for our sins…….there is no one in all of history who sacrificed HIS life on the Cross for us. There is no one who spread HIS arms out on … More SUNDAY REFLECTIONS
Since each day gives us the opportunity to choose…….let’s choose wisely. We can choose to do right or wrong, but let’s remember this today: DOING THE WRONG THING TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT IS BITTER FRUIT. Let’s not choose bitter but better. Let’s not choose what the world chooses, but let’s choose GOD’S way. A way … More THE RIGHT FRUIT
How can we as the small humans we are, not gaze upon a sunrise or sunset and not see that it is all GOD’S authority that each day comes? HE allows each 24 hours that we get to live on this planet. I am strangely comforted in seeing the sun rise and always think: … More HIS AUTHORITY OVER ALL
All we can do is hope for the best……..how often have we heard that phrase said by many around us. The world’s hope is different from a believer’s hope. Mainly because our hope is in JESUS CHRIST. I had a friend a few years ago whose husband had left her, so she chose the word … More OUR BEST HOPE
A bruised reed HE will not break…….did you know? Knowing this from scripture is so comforting isn’t it? As powerful as our GOD is, HE is also a very gentle GOD. This scripture is mentioned in ISAIAH 42:3 and then again in MATTHEW 12:20. I think it significant that this is referred to twice. GOD’S … More WALK IN THE WAY OF GENTLENESS
One of my favorite things to imagine is arriving in Heaven and seeing the long table set for a KING and all of HIS followers. It will be beautiful, probably like nothing my mind could really think of…….. PSALM 23: 5 “YOU PREPARE A TABLE BEFORE ME.” After JESUS’ resurrection HE appeared to HIS disciples … More THE TABLE IS SET FOR US!
I must admit there are days where my confidence in anything seems to be short lived. Situations in our lives don’t always go as planned. Because of all we need to accomplish in 24 hours we have to plan some, but oh how those plans can go sideways. When that hits me I tend to … More HUMBLE CONFIDENCE
So where indeed is your happy place? Honestly it could be anywhere and we all need a little happy these days. I was walking the other day in a different neighborhood and just happened to see a house with a couple of chairs on the porch. One pillow read: Our Happy Place. Our homes tend … More A HAPPY PLACE
