His Work
His pageantry
Every step, every lash, every nail and sword–Jesus took upon Himself suffering and sin. More personally–He took my suffering and sin. Once upon a time, I competed in pageants.

Are we not surprised?
All throughout God’s Word we see God’s work in families and patterns of behaviors repeating itself. The most remembered is David and his son Solomon. If you interview families they will share family patterns of alcoholics, sexual abuse, anger… I was listening to a young man’s story of how he wanted a relationship with is…
Courage
If you’ve been following the last several posts, you will remember that courage has been the area God has called me to think on, write about, and make changes in my spiritual walk.

Are you all in?
Something led me to get up early prior to church and work on the Woman of Worth Mentoring Ministries Bible Study. I had time to post some work from the study before leaving for service. I had the pearl of great price on my mind and even asked myself, “Are you all in for Jesus?” Remembering…
The Pearl
Your relationship with your earthly and heavenly father can sometimes influence each other. In our Bible study, And The Bride Wore White, by Dannah Gresh, the earthly and fatherly relationship were discussed. In one study of the sex lives of a hundred teenage girls, the girls actually admitted that they often “swapped sexual encounters for…
Awe Struck
Awe: An emotion variously combining dread, veneration, and wonder that is inspired by authority or by the sacred… Cynicism: An attitude of scornful or jaded negativity, especially a general distrust of the integrity or professed motives of others… Stop and think about that last time you felt awe-struck!
