Guard Your Heart
Posted on November 14, 2020 Leave a Comment
Guarding your heart; I wonder if we really know what this means. You usually hear people say this when talking to someone about “relationships”. The conversation goes something like this: “I met someone and I am just not sure….” or “They said they were sorry, but…” To which the well intentioned, but often misinformed person […]

I just love a good testimony, don’t you? I love to hear how God is moving in someone’s life and blessing them. Earlier today, as I was scrolling through Facebook, I came across a friends post. Reading his story inspired me and I asked him if I could share it with you. You see, some […]
Let Go & Grab Hold

Being stuck is an unsettling feeling. It can feel like being stuck in a tar pit and no matter how hard you try you can’t lift your feet out of it. It grips you with the tentacles of anxiety, fear, depression, regret, despair… I have never seen quicksand, but in movies, someone gets stuck in […]
Feeling Lonely?

Aloneness does not have to be loneliness. A person can be alone and not be lonely. A person can be surrounded by people and be lonely. Are you suffering loneliness?

Thank God for humor! Right? Sometimes I think my life is an episode of I Love Lucy. Just like Lucy, I often find myself in ridiculous moments. One year for Christmas my youngest daughter made me a gift of a decorated jar, filled with 365 notes of encouragement, one for each day of the year. […]
It’s in the DNA

My fathers side of the family is recognized by “the chin.” Most of my cousins have inherited this feature, including myself. When my children were babies they looked like their father. As they grew they developed some of my features; big eyes and dimples. Mostly, they took on my mannerisms, no doubt because of my […]
Love-O-Meter

If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love [for others growing out of God’s love for me], then I have become only a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal [just an annoying distraction]. And if I have the gift of prophecy [and speak a new message from God to […]

This is for all the Spiritual Fathers out there and to all the men who answered the call and gave… You may never know on this side of eternity the impact you have had and the difference you made, but God knows, and the fatherless children know. Thank you for standing up and being the […]
Real Love, His Love

There is comfort in love; safety and freedom. What freedom and security to be completely vulnerable and naked, knowing you are loved and cared for, no matter the flaws, because your Beloved loves you unconditionally. Such love is willing to lay His life down for you, defend you, hold you, care for the things you […]
