No More Self Loathing
Posted on April 17, 2018 3 Comments
We know God forgives us, because He says if we repent, He forgives us of our sins. We even forgive others (with His help). Yet… We struggle to forgive ourselves. Living in regret and shame keeps us in bondage. This is not God’s will for us. We start getting ahead and then that ol’ lying […]

At the risk of being vulnerable and judged, I am going to share something personal and trust God will use this part of my testimony to help someone; even if it is only one person. I have always tried to be true and honest with my writing. My heart is to reach and minister to […]

Why Forgive?

This is what forgiveness does… … it frees us! When we can see the offender as someone trapped in their own nightmare, a victim (because without Christ that is what we are) then we have better understanding. When we suffer for Christ, we suffer as Christ did, for a people who had no light or […]

Do you ever feel like you are stuck? You know, for every two steps forward you take a step back and you feel like no matter what you do, you just can’t get ahead, as if you are stuck in waste high mud? Do you ever feel so bogged down by anxiety and uncertainty, and […]

It is true, there is not one person who ever lived who was perfect, except Jesus. Even though He was tempted in every way we are tempted, He did not sin. So, the good news is… because He was without sin and died and rose again for us, having paid the penalty for our sins, […]

As I sit here and listen to Jason Upton sing about freedom, I mediate on the truth of what he is singing. (Click here) Ah, yes, freedom! Isn’t that we all long for? True freedom to be who we were created to be in the security of safety and comfort of knowing we will not […]

Do you know the difference between pigs and sheep? Pigs like mud. They will wallow in it. They find comfort in mud. It’s their nature. Sheep do not belong in mud. It is not their nature. “I assure you and most solemnly say to you, he who does not enter by the door into the […]
