Never underestimate the power of a moment. Awaiting my daughter’s graduation from Virginia Commonwealth University, our family sat directly in front of the those graduating with their doctorate in education. A woman my age stood up to walk the stage and her courageous and confident smile, as well as her hands raised in victory, moved…

His Work
The Curtain
Hang the curtain from the clasps and place the ark of the covenant law behind the curtain. The curtain will separate the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place. Exodus 26:33 Jesus and His radiance lives within you. We may feel disconnected, confused, or abandoned, but Jesus made a way for us. His death and…
Mary’s Song to Jesus
You were conceived by the Spirit I carried you inside my womb They crucified you on the cross You left an empty tomb Blessed am I to be a part Of God’s great plan to save us all My heart is filled with so much joy As in His presence I am called My Jesus,…
A Daisy To Us!
One of my oldest daughter’s teachers from elementary school took the time to encourage her and our family through this post on Facebook. The comments that continued were equally a blessing and an unexpected joy! “When the heart overflows, it comes out the eyes. God is good like that; He doesn’t want our chests to…

That Which Was Lost
Our small group for Woman of Worth Mentoring Ministries is studying Share Jesus Without Fear Bible study. During this Lent season, we often reflect on Jesus’ love poured out on the cross, and the disciples He called to work alongside Him. The Bible study shared that perhaps it was not the cross that killed Jesus, but…
Message and Miracles
The power of Christ in His message to us as His beloved children far outweighs the power of His miracles. We are often captured by a miraculous story in His Word, or in our personal lives, “but the greatest of these is love”. God is love. (I John 4:8) We’ve prayed to God to restore…
Want versus Need and Trust
Want versus Need I read an article in which only 20 percent of those who purchased gym memberships in January will stay and continue their goal to lose weight and exercise. Where did all the others go? The 80 percent began their journey with a want and not a need. As I was travelling in…
