MY Mercies are New Every Morning
I said “Lord, have mercy!” several times in my blog yesterday. I wish that those words were my words. I mean MY mercies. I read this scripture: “The faithful love of the LORD never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is His faithfulness; His mercies are new every morning.” (Lamentations 3:22-23) I know those words…
Giving Mercy Might be the Best Gift We can Give
Maybe you were born way later than the vinyl records era when our music came from a spinning disk with a needle that sat on the grooves of the record. It played the music of our day. But if the record was scratched, it would loop endlessly over the same lyric. So, that just may…
Only One Perfect One
I’m still faithful to my “One Year Bible” daily readings. I’ll admit I might miss a day or two, but I’ll catch up and get back on track as soon as I can. I don’t say that to impress you, but it does impress me because I am getting so much out of these readings.…
You are Working all Things for my Good
Not only is that a passage from the Bible in Romans 8:28, it is the lyrics of a song written and sung by Gospel Recording Artists, pastors and dear friends, David and Nicole Binion. I was about to start writing a blog about that verse when I started singing the words written by David and…
Taking the Hide Road
Speaking as a gal whose done her share of travelling some high and low roads, I highly recommend the high roads. I’ve taken some perilous, torrential-rain, “low” roads that I had to turn around to take a higher road to travel. And, in the spiritual sense, I’ve taken some precarious “low” roads of doubt and…
Untying the Apron Strings to Let it Go!
Usually untying the “apron strings” means someone is controlled or influenced too much by someone else who refuses to let them go! Today, I’m thinking beyond parents. “Letting go” can also be referring to “apron strings” tied so tight around a spouse, home, job, their identity and their stuff. To grow or to simply take…
A Good Shepherd Leads His Sheep & Goats
Here I go again with more inspiration from “the tales of Bryson”. My youngest grandson’s life is consumed with the great outdoors and his animals, so of course, his live-stock causes my mind’s “ticker tape” to keep rolling! His priority is his animals’ care and he loves it when I help him feed them at…
Kanye’s Thirst Was Quenched
I’ve been following the faith journey of Kanye West. I watched him respond to Joel Osteen’s questions at Houston’s Lakewood Church last Sunday morning before his Sunday night’s free, 3-hour gospel concert. Kanye’s responses to Joel’s questions, his lifestyle change, and the concert depict a very changed man. He is consistently giving testimony to his…
MY Mercies are New Every Morning
I wish that those words were my words. I mean MY mercies. I read this scripture: “The faithful love of the LORD never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is His faithfulness; His mercies are new every morning.” Lamentations 3:22-23. I know those words are so true. I know His faithful love, His fresh mercy…
Oh, But for the Mercy of God!
I’ve heard people say “Lorrrd, have mercy!” as a quick retort when yet another “I can’t believe it” circumstance happens. In reality, that is what we should say, rather pray, anytime we encounter a roadblock, a rock landslide, “rocked my world” or rock crazy situations going on in our world. God is our ROCK in…
