I understand the Biblical truth of waiting for intimacy until marriage.  Marriage is a Holy union between man and woman.  But do we wait for a love that we can have right now? Jesus is our first love.  He wants you to be filled and blessed as a single person.  He is not holding out…

Exodus 8: 8-10 8 Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, “Pray to the Lord to take the frogs away from me and my people, and I will let your people go to offer sacrifices to the Lord.” 9 Moses said to Pharaoh, “I leave to you the honor of setting the time for me to pray for you and your officials and…

The speaker from Knowing God’s Ministries shared an intimate story of reconnecting with someone after 11 years.  She felt the Holy Spirit asking her to reconnect and settle some things in the relationship.  At the end she asked us to think of our “who” or “what”. My mind went blank.  Then, a long list of…

A pecking order exists in the chicken coop.  If you watch a group of chickens there are “the favored” and higher importance chickens who rule the roost.  A lot can be said about pecking orders and favoritism within our hearts and daily walk.  We either ask questions to perhaps solidify our stance or point, or…

Listening to NPR Fresh Air, a famous actor was asked, “Do you ever imagine yourself not acting?”  He began to share how he never fit in and was often told, “Be still, sit down, stop being silly, calm down and focus.”  When he auditioned for a role and became an actor, he knew that he…

The first WOW group from over 13 years ago are in their 20’s. They decided to do Bible Study together now that they are settled and out of college.  Yesterday I posted about Jesus being our only hope and then received this message from one of the girls the same day. My apples of gold…

There are Jesus things we learn when we are in Bible study at a retreat; and there are seemingly peripheral things we learn that are floating on the outside, but also exist in the depths of your soul.  It’s the things we don’t talk about in Bible study with others because it’s too deep, and we…

I am God, your God,     who teaches you how to live right and well.     I show you what to do, where to go. If you had listened all along to what I told you,     your life would have flowed full like a river,     blessings rolling in like waves from the sea. Isaiah 48:17 God’s Word is…

God is a personal God.  He cares deeply about the smallest of details in your daily walk.  During a retreat this weekend, my girls and I chose crafts as an activity.  I had paint up my arm, and if something was going to happen, it happened to my picture I was creating.  I watched as…

I sat in a message yesterday that every line answered overwhelming questions in my soul.  I wasn’t going to go to church because of a busy weekend of class, chores, and other ministries.  A precious friend from my program messaged me and asked if she could come and worship.  AH!  Okay, God– There we were…
