To Love Like Jesus

Today I want to present some ways Jesus handled things. He modeled how we are to live. I know I need His grace to be able to live as He lived. We may fail at times but if we never decide to take up our cross and follow Him our lives will never reflect Him. […]

Rooted in Jesus

“A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up. Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly , because the soil was shallow. But when the sun came up, […]

Surrender

If you’ve been in church very long you have probably heard mentioned that Jesus has won the victory and our part is to surrender our lives to Him. Recently, I was asked what exactly does it mean to surrender to God? Surrender is not something that just naturally flows from us nor is it something […]

How Big is Your Cup?

“Give and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” Luke 6:35-38 I’m sure most of us have heard this verse used during offering time or to spur us […]

Dealing With Loss

Situations in certain seasons cause us to reflect and think back on life. Lately, I’ve been thinking about some things I learned about loss, particularly of loved ones gone too soon. My Dad died when I was 22 and even though I was aware of the deep void, it wouldn’t be until years later that […]

There’s Breakthrough in the Breakthrough

Sometimes when I hear things from the Lord I record them and just go back to them from time to time. At other times when the Lord speaks, I will repeatedly hear the words and know there is some deeper meaning He desires to unfold for me. It’s never a good idea to just assume we know […]

No More Delay

Today is the day of no more delay! Don’t delay doing what you already know to do. Move forward. Don’t just think about the good you should do; be like Jesus and act on it. “God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing […]

House Upon the Rock

In Matthew 5-7:27 we find Jesus famous Sermon On The Mount. In chapter 5 Jesus begins with ways to blessing, commonly known as the beatitudes. Who doesn’t want a blessed life? Jesus tells us how! The sermon is filled with topics detailing how we should live our life. Immediately after the beatitudes Jesus talks about how […]

Honoring Parents

The only commandment with a promise is the one to honor your father and mother. Ephesians 6:2-3 (AMP) reads, “Honor (esteem, value as precious) your father and your mother (and be respectful to them) this is the first commandment with a promise– so that it may be well with you, and that you may have […]

It’s A New Day

The last year has been a year of sorrow on many levels. So many have experienced so much grief. In my own family there have been eight extended family deaths. Two of my three animals died within a week. Disappointments have been all around. Over and over, in the midst of the trials, I have […]
