Correction That’s Good for Us
I’ll be honest — I don’t like being corrected. Do you? It’s embarrassing. Especially if someone points out my mistake in front of other people. I’d much prefer a quiet whisper in the corner than a neon sign flashing “She goofed!” But as much as we dislike correction, it’s good for us. Correction keeps us…
Blessings That Chase Us Down
I read this promise yesterday and it stopped me in my tracks: “If you faithfully obey the voice of the LORD your God and are careful to follow all His commandments — all these blessings will come upon you and overtake you, if you obey the voice of the LORD your God.” — Deuteronomy 28:1-2…
Pass It On — The Comfort You Know
2 Corinthians 1:3–4 says it so beautifully:“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.” That’s not just…
I Gotchu!
I’ve heard it plenty at the drive-thru window. “I gotchu!” the voice says cheerfully. Then I get home and — surprise! — my fries are missing. Nope. You didn’t “got me” at all. Curious, I looked it up. Webster’s says, “I gotchu” means loyalty, friendship, and protection through hard times. Sounds reassuring, right? But let’s…
Worship = Blessings
I promise — just one more thought about the Wise Men! What amazes me most about their story is this: after worshiping the newborn King, “…being divinely warned in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed for their own country another way.” (Matthew 2:12). That verse carries two powerful truths. First,…
Our Divine Security Patrol
In a world filled with uncertainty, we are constantly reminded of how fragile life can be. By now, you probably know that last Sunday there was another attempt on President Trump’s life. Lord, have mercy! It was another chilling reminder that no one, no matter how powerful or protected, is immune to danger. That’s why…
God’s Providence
Perhaps you’ve already read the commentary from Jason Jimenez, Op-Ed Contributor, for The Christan Post. His words trump (no pun intended) my words today. I must pay it forward! “From the founding of America to its present day, God’s divine guidance has steered the course of events, protecting and preserving those who seek His favor.…
Miracles in our Midst
I don’t want this blog to alienate anyone who isn’t on the same page as us. We are all children of God. That is what matters most. I am married to an unrelenting, bold, determined and true patriot. He is all about the “land of the free and the home of the brave”. He served…
Happy Independence Day!
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” – Excerpt from the 1776 Declaration of Independence. Today, we celebrate the birth of our nation, marking 248 years since…
We’ve Been Entrusted
Entrusted – I saw that word in an email yesterday morning. It motivated me to blog about it. To entrust is to give someone a responsibility that we assume they will fulfill. If we entrust someone with the task of getting us to an appointment on time, we best make sure they are punctual. Entrusting…
