Word 👍🏻

Posted on

I have been reading God’s word for almost 30yrs now.  There is no writing that has impacted my life more.  Being a skeptic by nature, I have tested every sentence I’ve ever read against life and I have found all of these things to be true. The more I test it the more it’s validity […]

God’s Work In Us

Posted on

Let’s face it. Life is a challenge at best and sometimes we get so wrapped up in our circumstances we fail to see that God is at work in and through us.  Cycles of defeat and unchanging circumstances can cause us to forget our mission and God’s plan for our lives.  This I know: Our […]

His Strength

Posted on

While I grow weary God never does.  He never sleeps or slumbers. For He is our strength and everlasting hope.   There are two ways to run in this life; in our strength or His.  Those who try to run ahead of God and those who wait on Him.  This reminds me of The contrast […]

Faith Not Fear

Posted on

Fear has been said to be one of the greatest motivators.  I’m not convinced that’s healthy motivation.  We all fear at times and some are greater than others.  Fears usually come from bad experiences and cause falsely placed dependencies.   Perhaps you had an abusive father, brother or some other male in your life.  This […]

Yes this may look different from everyone else in how you carry […]

The Ultimate Plot Twist

Posted on

I love an unforeseen twist in plot.   After seeing so many movies, I can predict about 98% the endings. So much so that it’s not fun to watch movies sometimes.  This may have something to do with all of the episodes of Scooby-do, Columbo and Murder She Wrote I watched as a kid.   […]

A Different Kind Of Love

Posted on

God’s love is not just an external force that acts upon us but is actually manifested in us. It continues to grow the longer we walk in Him. This marvelous process was made possible by the life and work of Jesus Christ.  It is a strange thing for us that we might live life through […]

Overflowing Word Of Faith

Posted on

Salvation is found when Christ’s righteousness is imputed to us by faith. With our heart, we believe in Christ and His finished work. With our bodies, specifically our mouth, we confess that Jesus is Lord. Salvation is not the result of our work to earn favor with God. For this is impossible. Instead with God […]
