When courage dies…

There is a huge difference in a bad hair day and a day that seems hopeless.  I read in Proverbs this verse ” A man’s courage can sustain his broken body, but when courage dies, what hope is left?” I have several friends asking this question of hope and feeling hopeless about a situation.  As…

Joy in the morning…GOOD MORNING!

I’ve had several prayer requests from readers after yesterday’s post.  Will you stand in agreement that God will bring JOY to their situation.  We don’t need names.  God knows their name; we only need to pray for healing and restoration in their circumstances.  We thank you ahead of time Jesus….. My father sent this writing…

Eat the Bread!

You hem me in–behind and before; you have laid your hand upon me. Psalm 139:5 Have you ever sat in a teaching in which you felt the leaders spent the week with you?  Writing in this blog has been so healing for me.  I pray it’s ministering to you.  That’s my prayer!  At one point the…

Face to Face

Revelation 22:4 says “They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads.” Do you remember being in the hospital as a mom or dad awaiting the arrival of your child? There is this single moment that overwhelms me for every child I’ve given birth to.  When you are there all alone, and…

Joshua’s Eyes

Joshua was a slave under Egyptian taskmasters until he was rescued by Moses and delivered.  Moses gave Joshua his name.  His original name was Hosea son of Nun.   Joshua is Yeshua in Hebrew, which means “the Lord is Salvation.”  This slave grew to become Moses’ successor, and was the only one along with Caleb to set…

Very quick note

If I suggest a song or link, the picture needs to be clicked on.  On my end there is a big play button in the middle of the picture.  On your end it’s just a picture.  So, the last post at the end, the picture was a beautiful song from Kari Jobe.  I will try…

Only One Man Took the Nails…

All of us have our favorite music we  listen to in the car, while we are hanging out, or cleaning house. The combination of worship, blogging with you, and encounters with others led me to this incredible moment.  I had just experienced the culmination of events that swept over me like that rush you feel…

Jesus Culture: Freedom Reigns

Imagine someone who is in her 20’s, young, beautiful, given her life to Jesus. She honestly shares her struggles that would sound so familiar, and you desire to pray for her.  She begins to talk about her grandmother who loves Jesus, and they share a deep relationship of love for each other. Her name is Shannon. Shannon shares…

Pursue me

Pursue from the dictionary: : to follow in order to overtake, capture : to find or employ measures to obtain or accomplish : to proceed along : to engage in : to follow-up or proceed with Raising children.  I don’t have to finish that sentence because each one of us who are in the process, or are…
