Come Out, Christians, Wherever You Are
Just wondering if you heard about the tens of thousands of Christians who converged on Washington D.C. last weekend? No news reports about looting, vandalism, calls to “burn it down”, no acts of violence and destruction? That’s because the tens of thousands of Christians came to pray for our nation. Worship, prayers, humility and repentance…
My Healing and Praying Places
See this pool. It is my daily (except Sunday) place of therapy for my mind, spirit, and body. The aggressive daily 3-mile walking marathons took their toll on this young body, so my new plan of action takes me to the pool. Thankfully, I’m able to swim laps — great therapy and the aching legs…
My Eyes Saw His Eyes
From my comfy chair, I look across my living area into the kitchen. My eyes see His eyes. Those eyes on my refrigerator were a gift that had been strategically placed under the guests’ clear plates at a women’s meeting. They were awe-inspiring then, and this day those eyes meet mine again. I know those…
It was a Day of Humbling Ourselves
I heard about Franklin Graham’s call for a prayer march in Washington D.C. on Saturday, September 26th. I also heard that Jonathan Cahn, a former Jewish rabbi and now, Messianic Jew, called for a day-of-prayer rally in Washington D.C. I knew I would dedicate my Saturday to joining others in prayer, so it was a…
Don’t Believe the Lies
If you’re hearing voices in your head that talk you down – then this blog is for you. We’ve all heard those smack-talk voices that are sent to undermine our very existence and keep us from all that God has destined for us. “You’ll never amount to anything.” “You are too old to do that.”…
Breath of God
In my prayer time, I said these words “Thank You for your breath, Lord!” What? Where did that come from? Who do we ever say “Thank you for your breath” because breath can be stinky? But not so with the breath of Jesus. In asking for His breath, I knew that I was asking for…
Welcome, Fall! You Made It! Whoo-hoo!
September 22nd was the first day of fall. I let it slip up on me and pass me by. Maybe it did for you, too! Fall evokes so many sensual pleasures – the yummy pumpkin spice coffee and aromas that abound from aromatics and cooking. More than the sensual pleasures, what I love most about…
Clenched Fists or Open Hands?
Are your fists clenched so tightly that if you let them go, you know you’ll blow? After all these uncharted waters of the pandemic – that steam might erupt like Old Faithful, as you shout “I’M DONE!” Maybe, you’re white-knuckling it because you’re fearful of what is up ahead. I know both examples. I was…
Choosing Wisely Which Side of History We Want
Not long ago, I wrote a blog about the Israelites and the plagues sent by God to the Egyptians in the Bible. Now, we know from firsthand experience, what a true plague looks like in our world. In a sense, it has felt like history repeated itself. But, Lord, please spare us from frogs, lice,…
Coincidence or God Incidence?
You just can’t make this stuff up! My granddaughter, Alexia, while shopping for her birthday present, last week, revealed that she’d like to have a cat when she lives on her own. We once raised Persian Angora cats, so she was speaking my love language. So, on her actual birthday, I thought I would help…
