40 More Days of Easter
Hold it! The Easter season (the resurrection of our Lord and His time on earth before ascending to heaven) is still underway. For 40 days after His resurrection, Jesus was “in and out” of places and people’s lives during that time. He was showing up when they least expected Him. Can you imagine being one…
HE LIVES! Good Resurrection Morning!
I wrote this blog yesterday. I was already singing an old hymn that I sang as a child. It resonated in my heart. This is my theme song for this majestic Easter morning! “I serve a risen Savior. He’s in the world today.I know that He is living, Whatever men may say.I see His hand…
Just How Big is God?
He’s big enough to rule the entire universe, yet small enough to live within my heart. You ask me how I know He lives and is in control – because He lives within my heart! Such simple yet such powerful words! God’s “bigness” happens to be the defining legacy of my mom. In every single…
He is Alive and So are We
I typed this blog. I must be alive. If you are reading this blog, then you are alive, too! Good news! We made it another day! And, this morning, God woke me up and started me on my way! You ask me how I know that Jesus lives today. Here’s how I know. He lives…
Hanging Out at the Temple
Tuesday of Holy Week could be called “Temple Tuesday,” because in Matthew 21 we read how Jesus spent most of the day in the Temple — teaching and using parables to make His points. Jesus didn’t write blogs back then – but He certainly left a lasting impression in His teachings. According to Matthew, Mark…
Monday of Holy Week
A couple of weeks ago, my children had all the family over for dinner. Following the meal, we all sat in the living area to watch the photos of Brennan’s Senior Trip. Ryan, my son, was one of the chaperones. He made sure the guys in his group saw it all. From New York to…
Spoiler Alert – He Lives!
There are many heroes that have blazed many trails for us – our own family members, our veterans, those who created a life-changing invention that gave us incredible time-saving opportunities. Many of those are still alive and many have passed on. But, after Sunday’s celebration of Christ’s resurrection…..the greatest HERO Who ever lived…didn’t just pass…
40 More Days of Raising a Hallelujah
I’ve been in an Easter story-telling mode for several days now. And it looks like I’m not finished yet. Truth is – Easter isn’t about rabbits and eggs and chocolatey treats. We should NEVER stop talking about Easter and all it represents as believers in the abundant life Christ gave us and that’s every day…
God’s Not Dead — He’s Fully ALIVE!
And, He’s living on the inside; roaring like a lion. Praise God! The tomb is empty! The tomb wasn’t for the dead after all. It was a Delivery Room for our LIVING Savior! SURPRISE, Satan! God’s NOT dead – He’s fully ALIVE! Miracle of all miracles. The Apostle Peter said in Acts 2:24 “God raised…
Temple Tuesday was Just That
Yesterday, on Holy Monday of Holy Week, I blogged about Jesus and His righteous anger when He saw the money changers selling their wares and cheating people at the temple. Cheating is wrong but especially at this holy place set apart for the presence of God. I love that from that scene, Jesus went into…
