How often do we obey GOD only to do it imperfectly! We may be in a hurry or even in a mood. Ugh we are such imperfect beings! We realize with every step we take, we are fallen, sinful beings, but at the same time, we desire to obey GOD even if our obedience seems half-hearted. … More IMPERFECT OBEDIENCE/STRONG FAITH
Hello everyone! I am back after a much needed vacation that was beautiful and restful. I was able to write too. I am always thrilled when the LORD gives me more posts to write, so here goes and I hope this encourages you today.

Hey friends……..just wanted to let you all know that I am taking a small break here. We will be in Hawaii for a bit and I do get some writing done in such a beautiful place, but I don’t bring my laptop on purpose. But GOD and HIS Creation is all around and inspires me … More TAKING A MUCH NEEDED BREAK
If the call to love others and to serve them is a burden to you, then you really are living for you and not for JESUS. We were bought with a precious price. The Cross is proof. JESUS sacrificed it all……..all for us to live out our lives for HIM. DON’T LIVE AS YOUR OWN……..LIVE … More LIVE AS IF CHRIST OWNS YOU

Do we walk around with the joy that we know JESUS or do we walk around with a scowl upon our faces? Because joy and light will … More WEAR THE GOSPEL ON YOUR FACE
Recently I read in Max Lucado’s devotional book: GOD IS WITH YOU EVERY DAY the following: DON’T MEASURE YOUR LIFE BY YOUR ABILITY; MEASURE IT BY GOD’S. Measure your ability with the world’s and you will fall short. Measure your ability by GOD and your ability is endless and even powerful! GOD completes us where … More HOW WE SHOULD MEASURE
Moments matter. Over time they add up to a lifetime. CHRIST is present in those moments when our minds remain vertical and our eyes stay upon HIM and all of HIS promises. And we will have moments of HIS daily bread and days of wine and beauty. We will have moments where we forget too……..LORD … More SUNDAY REFLECTIONS
