Who is Speaking into Your Life?
At the very beginning of time, God SPOKE creation into existence! He literally spoke life. Not only that, He said that what He had spoken into existence was good and made well. Does that speak as loudly to anyone else as it does to me? This means that our words matter. We are created in…
Lord, I’m Available to You
From years ago, I remember singing these words by Carlis Moody:“Lord, I’m available to youMy will I give to youI’ll do what you say doUse me Lord to show someone the wayAnd enable me to say,I am available to you – Use me Lord.” I never want to say “no” to God. If He calls…
I’m Still Here – and I’m So Grateful
This is the day the Lord made ME, and I’m so grateful He did. Not that I’m leaving this earth any time soon, I’ve told my family that I want the song by Cece Winans “I Will Sing of the Goodness of God”, to be sung at my Celebration of Life – which will be…
When Rock Bottom Turns Out to Be Solid Ground
They say when you hit rock bottom, there’s nowhere to go but up. But what if I told you that rock bottom isn’t the end — it’s the beginning? At a recent Women’s Spring event at my church, I heard the speaker share her story — father walked out, heart broken and many other issues…
Celebrate the Good News!
Don’t you love those words, “Good News”? I remember my early years as a Christian and how difficult it was for me to share God’s “Good News” to those around me. Sure, I did my best to be a reflection of Christ’s likeness in my words and deeds in everyday life, but I wasn’t what…
Nothing can Separate Us from God’s Love
Doesn’t that give us reassurance at the end of a day when we feel less than loved by anyone, including ourselves? God’s love for us is unwavering and eternal. Imagine that! No matter what happens, nothing can destroy our relationship with Him. This truth has the power to transform our lives. Romans 8:38-39 assures us,…
Time Sure Flies
Holy moly! Can you believe it? We’ve already blown through half of this year. Before we know it, we’ll be pulling out our Christmas decor’ and creating gift lists. Remember when we were kids, and time seemed to crawl? Waiting for summer vacation felt like an eternity. I know time is crawling for my grandson…
Step into Spring
Spring begins today, March 19, 2024. Usually, it’s March 20 or 21, but because it’s a leap year, February gets an extra day. The season moves up a little on the calendar. Either way, the first day of Spring is always a little over a week after daylight saving time. But, with all that info,…
We are Messengers
With all the text messaging we do, we can officially declare ourselves “messengers”! We’ve got it down well – just a quick message to announce: “On my way home!” “Running late – home by 6!” “Thx for the info!” “What’s for dinner?” But, today, I’m referring to being “life” messengers because we ARE the message!…
Peace, Goodwill to All Men AND Women
Of course, I am going to blog about peace and goodwill today. And, in so doing, I am sucker-punching the enemy of my soul. I have had way too many reasons to throw in the towel lately than I care to talk about. But you probably know that I can’t help but talk about it.…
