Let me encourage your soul…
I was so encouraged today by what I read, so let me pass it on to you.. The greatest victories of God are often won by apparent defeat. God allows the enemy to come in and wreak all kinds of havoc. The enemy thinks he has the victory – sometimes I can actually...

Tomorrow? God’s Already There.
Shepherds always walk ahead of their sheep. They’re always out in front, so any attack meant for the sheep would be first met head on by the shepherd. Tomorrow? God’s already there. All of the tomorrows of life have to pass through our Good Shepherd before they even...

Stopped By the Spirit…

Walk In Boldness…
Today I feel strongly that the Lord guided me to this scripture, and wants me to write a little about it because someone needs to hear it. You’re afraid to step out and walk by faith... “But Moses pleaded with the Lord, “Oh Lord, I’m not very good with words. I...
Faith Triumphs in Trouble…

We are Called to Edify…
“Therefore comfort each other and edify one another, just as you are also doing.” 1 Thessalonians 5: 11 I heard a sermon that mentioned the edification of others, and it really hit home for me. So for today, I want to make sure this gets driven home to you too. Our...

The Healing Power of Afflictions
I have so much to be thankful for... I am very thankful for the people God put in front of me, whether through books I've read or sermons I've heard, to help give me the perspective of God in my suffering. Some of those people are Joni Eareckson-Tada, David...
I LOVE Church. I Really Love Church… Usually!

...because God is working strangely and mysteriously, don’t be afraid. I’m speaking from my heart today. Someone needs to be encouraged, and I have a scripture for you... “If you are suffering according to God’s will, keep on doing what is right and trust...
Could We be Tested by the Silence?
Wow, I’ve just been turned on to a verse of scripture that I didn’t realized was in the Bible. I must have read it before, but just glossed over it. This is another example how scripture seems to come alive in a new way. It’s a new season! To me, this is HUGE. And I...
