Let Him who Loves Best Teach Us How to Love Better

As we approach Valentine's day and are in American Heart Health Month let's go beyond the typical gestures and declarations of love. Let's dig deeper and reach higher for the examples of whole love. Let's proclaim to the one who loves us most and best that we are open vessels for which a more holy love can be poured into. Let's put first the one who loves us unconditionally and infinitely so that we can learn to pay that forward through the means of our Obedience and our h

Hello 2019!

Welcome to the New Year everyone! We've been blessed to cross over that road onto a new one. Like previous years, these roads will be filled with forked paths leading us into confusion...Buuut!!! Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.' ~Isaiah 41:10 Isn't that so comforting? God had our backs, he Will lead us down paths in which he already knows the outco

Stop Drop & Roll Into Jesus!

Cast all your care upon him; for he carter for you. ~1 Peter:7 Are you Casting? Not unlike fishing casting requires for us to reach out and cast our ( Rod ) our troubles into the 'rivers' of our Lord and Savior. But, instead of coming up with a hearty fish when we cast our cares, we come up with confidence in Jesus not in our own ability to handle our afflictions. And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Jesus thereon. ~Luke 19:

God Shows Us Our Inner Reflection...

What you are is God's gift to you, what you become is your gift to God. ~Hans Urs von Balthasar How do you know when you're being brought to a place where you don't recognize yourself, or really want to? God strips us of our outer reflections so that we can peer into the deep recesses of our soul, the essence of who we REALLY are (at the current moment). Let's just say it AIN'T always pretty! LOL Yep, when we're brought to a place where we become aware, a place where ou

How to Combat Feelings of Rejection :/

[ What shall we then say to these things? If God [be] for us, who [ can be] against us? ~Romans 8:31 ] Unfortunately, we've all been there, being rejected is one nasty part of this 'life bootcamp' we're all on! No matter how you spin it; whether it's rejection form a job, dating, friends, or family it angers and cuts through our heart like a warm knife through butter. However, in our present time there are no guarantees to being treated fair [ Perry's rejection after reach

Finish Line...

[ For from his and through him and to him are all things. To him be the glory forever! Amen. ~ Romans 11:36 ] Focus! Maybe Refocus?! As we all cross the finish line of a long, and difficult year we can take refuge that our Lord has been with is the entire time. He's held our hands, wiped our tears and made it possible to move slower, or sit still; to just be wherever he wants us to be. Whenever we've felt that we can't go on, he's the rope that's pulled us through and gi

You Are Never Alone...

All great and precious things are lonely. ~John Steinbeck [God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. ~Psalms 46:1] Loneliness is one of the most widely experienced afflictions of the human condition. We're all sinners ["All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" ~Romans 3:23] and because of this sin nature we experience a spiritual separation from our Creator. [The result of sin is death, spiritual separation from God ~Romans 6:23]. However, G

Prioritizing Our Faith During Arduous Times...

[ Seek him, get lost in him to find the way...] I challenge anyone to disagree that we're living in times which are growing darker by the day. We all feel it, even those who don't necessarily understand what they're feeling. Many of us are withstanding more and more fall outs, disparities, betrayals, living and health challenges and a multitude of other circumstances that carry us away from life as we once knew it to be. Our planet is experiencing the stress and is groaning

Shingles A New Meaning For The Word Pain

[ The most important thing is this: to be ready at any moment to sacrifice what you are for what you could become. ~Charles Dickens ] [I have been bent and broken, but I hope into a better shape. ~Charles Dickens] In my experience and ever growing relationship with the Lord, the only way to learn how to create a truly purposeful path in life is to step back, slow down, (I know it's hard but it's necessary) and get connected to the Lord God.
