Reading and studying Ephesians 6 again this afternoon. I have experienced personally, as many of you have, that putting on this armor Paul is talking about truly works against the enemy. “Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. For we are […]
I was reading and studying about Paul having a thorn in his flesh. The Bible says he prayed several times to have it taken away but it didn’t go away. God knew it was for his benefit. This got me to thinking about some thorns I came in contact with the other day. I went […]
These words from the song “Scars” hit me this morning. I’m looking back from this side now. This side is healing, is freedom, is love. I’m not who I was before. I was broken. I was lost. I was ashamed of who I was but I’m so thankful during those dark days I decided to […]
I saw this add the other day with this little girl standing back watching. It says, “The next generation depends on you. Lead by example.” My goodness, how true is this? There will always be someone watching. If you have kids, they are watching. My kids are at an age where I can see my […]
“Peter and John went to the Temple one afternoon to take part in the three o’clock prayer service. As they approached the Temple, a man lame from birth was being carried in. Each day he was put beside the Temple gate, the one called the Beautiful Gate, so he could beg from the people going […]
Who doesn’t want perfect vision. Years ago I had laser surgery to correct my blurred vision. I was 20/20 after it, no more glasses, yay! Over the years slowly my vision has gotten a little worse and this past year I had to get some glasses to wear at times when my eyes get tired […]
“So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God, for whoever has entered God’s rest has also rested from his works as God did from his. Let us therefore strive to enter that rest, so that no one may fall by the same sort of disobedience.” Hebrews 4:9-11 ESV Every morning I […]
My reading this morning was in Romans 4. I am so encouraged after reading and studying again about Abraham’s faith. “That is what the Scriptures mean when God told him, “I have made you the father of many nations.” This happened because Abraham believed in the God who brings the dead back to life and […]
Today I feel extremely blessed to celebrate 21 years of marriage. I’m thankful we are not “just married” but happily married. I know the only way it’s possible is through God, His mercy and His redemptive work in our lives! Thank you Lord! I feel led today to share a little of our past that […]
Reading about Solomon building the temple this morning. It goes into such detail of how it was to be constructed, the exact measurements, what it would be constructed out of. Every detail was laid out in the plan. I can’t imagine planning, scheduling and organizing such a project. A project that took 7 years to […]
