As a culture we are constantly being told to become more, to do more and to buy more. The world offers an ever increasing feeling that there’s more to be obtained in order to be happy. But here Jesus is constantly urging us to lay it down. He offers true fulfillment in Him alone. In…
BUT EVEN IF
One of my favorite bible stories is of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. Most people know this as amazing because they were put in a fiery furnace, had Jesus in the fire with them and were not harmed in any way. That is mind blowing. But as I was just rereading the story, the Holy Spirit…
2020 VISION
Happy New Year friends! It’s hard to believe we are in a new decade and in the twenties. I thought we would have Jetson like flying cars by now, ha right. I rang in the new decade in such an unforgettable way with two of my sisters at the Jesus 19′ conference in Orlando. We…
FOR HIS NAMES SAKE
Sometimes we think we have God kinda figured out. We assume how he will respond or act in situations. Then He turns around and surprises us. It’s as if he’s saying, “I am God who is all powerful. I’m not going to fit into your logical human box.” I’ve seen Him heal and protect people…
ALWAYS A COST
It’s hard to believe that next week is Christmas and in less than 2 weeks we will enter into a new decade. As I watch the hustle and bustle and enter the crowded shops during this season, I am reminded of the greatest gift of all. Jesus. He is the gift that never wears out,…
BLESSED IS SHE
I’m enjoying a Christmas tradition that someone shared with me recently. It’s a great way to be reminded of the story of Jesus durning this busy season. Beginning December 1st, read one chapter of Luke each day through December 24th. There are 24 chapters. By Christmas Eve, you will have read all 24 chapters – an…
REFINER’S FIRE
While watching the silversmith, he held a piece of silver over the fire and let it heat up. He explained that in refining silver, one needed to hold the silver in the middle of the fire where the flames were hottest as to burn away all the impurities. I thought about God holding us in…
THE KEY TO HAPPINESS
Happy Thanksgiving friends! I hope your day is full of good food, fun family memories and reflection on how blessed we all are. Thanksgiving should be a heart posture not a once a year event. I have talked about this many times in past posts but really it’s so important and the key to happiness….
JESUS AMAZED
There is a common belief in Jesus but then there is faith that amazes Jesus. One of the great stories of the bible is of the Centurion. Most people need to “see it to believe it”. Even then they can be skeptical. But the Centurion, who might of not even been a follower of Christ,…
IN EVERY SITUATION
Life can bring anxiousness, right? There are unexpected situations that trigger us, along with people that are difficult. We can get overwhelmed by it all if we don’t stay focused on our rock. One of my favorite verses and reminders is Philippians 4:6. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer…
