More Than Meets the Eye
Ever hear someone say: “I’ll believe it when I see it!” or “Seeing is believing!” Oh, not so! Faith isn’t what we see with our eyes – it is so much more. It is that measure of God-given supernatural ingredient that He gave us and urges us to live by – that total trust and…
Blessed is She Who Believes
That title was inspired by Luke 1:45 “Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill His promises to her!” Mary’s cousin, Elizabeth, proclaimed those affirming words to Mary after a long trip from Nazareth. It’s only 20 days until Christmas AND 26 days until 2021, but who’s counting? I’m inspiring myself as…
Turning our Cocoons into Divine Preparation
In my interactions with friends and family lately, I’ve been referring to this time of isolation as “being in a cocoon”. I sense that we are growing in our gratitude and being made over mentally in ways that are so good for us. I saw this on a friend’s FB page yesterday. It confirmed what…

Child Like Faith — I Wanna’ Live Like That
Daddy says, “Jump! Trust me!” A leap of faith means the child has to put aside all inhibitions and fears. But, no problem. She has child-like faith. That faith that shows all-out, undaunted trust that her Daddy is going to catch her. And she jumps to her beloved Daddy. No fear – only trust! And…
I Believe I Can Fly — If Dumbo Can — So Can I
Yesterday, I posted “I believe I can fly!” Let’s take it a step further. Do you remember Dumbo — the Disney character that had huge ears? Other elephants ridiculed him, until he met Timothy Mouse that changed his perspective. Timothy convinced Dumbo that his little feather had magical powers that could turn his ears into…
