About three years ago, I stepped over my fear and onto faith while creating this page. I wasn’t sure anyone would care what I had to say. My friend told me that if I could reach just one person then that was success. I don’t know who needs to hear this right now but thisContinue reading “FEAR IS A LIAR”

Our Thanksgiving (& Everyday) Hearts
Last Thanksgiving Day, my husband and daughter experienced first hand the beauty and power of prayer. Both were working, prepping breakfast for the hotel guests. My daughter, Abigail, went to take out the trash and noticed a woman fall suddenly on the floor in the lobby. Immediately, a guest surrounded the woman and the frontContinue reading “Our Thanksgiving (& Everyday) Hearts”

RADIATING HOPE
The only visible star’s brightness was hard to miss. It peered through the cloudy night, competing with the illumination of the moon, briefly seen behind an overpowering cloud. Seeing this shining star against the dark sky reminded me of John 1:5: The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. ForContinue reading “RADIATING HOPE”
THROWBACK THURSDAY: Perspective (2016)
Perspective can be defined as “the faculty of seeing all the relevant data in a meaningful relationship.” As Christians, we don’t have to look at our symbolic chains or circumstances. Paul was a great example about perspective. Shackled and in chains, Paul doesn’t wallow in sorrow for his circumstances. He sees what is happeningContinue reading “THROWBACK THURSDAY: Perspective (2016)”

They were guidedContinue reading “Epiphany: The Perfect Light”
A Lesson in Friendship from the Book of Job
One of my goals for this year is to grow in my relationships. This morning as I studied my next section of the Book of Job, I read this: 11 Now when Job’s three friends heard of all this evil that had come upon him, they came each from his own place, Eliphaz the Temanite,Continue reading “A Lesson in Friendship from the Book of Job”
TAKE COMFORT
When we surrender our lives to Jesus, we are not guaranteed a life without heartache, pain, or suffering. In fact, the Bible states that in this world we will have trouble. We may suffer. We may be persecuted. We will have trials. Jesus was born into persecution. He suffered and lived through trials and temptations.Continue reading “TAKE COMFORT”
