I can do all things through him who strenghtens me. (Philippians 4:13 ESV) Contentment The calm for Paul to write Philippians astounds me. I believe key is his contentment. Paul’s secret to contentment in any and every situation comes from believing he can do all things through Christ who strengthens. He experienced life’s extremes- neediness to having plenty, well fed or hungry. Whatever need you have today- Jesus is our source. Seeking Seeking Jesus, building a foundation based on Biblical Truth, anchors us to the only real hope. Jesus is eternal, sitting next to God interceding for you and me. […]

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight. (Proverbs 9:10 ESV) Motiviate Motivating Monday! A great day to motivate with considerations happening toward governing nominations happening soon. However, this is not a blog focused solely on political movements. This is a blog to bring awareness to deception. Understanding Biblical Truth is basis for discerning what’s happening in our country. Emotions, Facts,Truth When I was a child, I thought like a child. Children base facts more on emotion than truth. Facts are determined by our personal way of seeing. Facts […]

He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, following the detestable practices of the nations the Lord had driven out before the Israelites. (2 Kings 21:2 NIV) Debates Who watched last night’s debate? Debates are down to top five Republican candidates, Super Tuesday coming up with many delegates on the line. What’s really on the line is our freedom, possibly three Supreme Court seats to be appointed, and economic relations world wide. For me, I want to know who is going to stand with Israel. Attention During the debates, it’s easy to see a father figure- the one who […]

And Jesus entered the temple and drove out all who sold and bought in the temple, and he overturned tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who sold pigeons. “It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ but you make it a den of robbers.” (Matthew 21:12,13 ESV) God’s Throne Once Jesus cleared the temple of buyers and sellers- miracles happened. The blind and lame came to him in the temple, and he healed them- v.14) Temples are a sacred place, a place for prayer. When we’re in need of a miracle, it’s a plea […]

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16 NIV) Valentines Happy Valentine’s Weekend! This weekend will be filled with expressions of love. Have you sat with a flower- he loves me, he loves me not, he loves me. The magnitude of who God is- sends some individuals through yo- yo thoughts about God’s love. God does not just love Christians, He loves the world. If He loves the world, He definitely loves those who believe. Forever Jesus sent to earth, […]

You adulterous people! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. (James 4:4 ESV) Freedom/Confusion Where the spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom (2 Corinthians 3:17) When God’s Spirit leaves, freedom escapes. Left with world influences crowding out Biblical Truth. This is happening in churches across our nation. Societal confusion blurs taking innocent individuals as casualties. Adultery Adultery defies one’s body against their spouse. Take a look at the church- Christ is the bridegroom waiting for His Bride, the church. […]

One day, the evil spirit answered them, “Jesus I know, and Paul, but who are you? (Acts 19:15 NIV) Progression Notes beside this scripture in my Bible, “Are you really saved? Are you doing work for Jesus?” There is a progression as one matures in Christ Jesus. We begin as babes in Christ, only able to digest milk. As we seek, we learn more about who we are in Christ. Maturing as we deepen Word knowledge- understanding evil vs. good. Aligning with God’s purpose for our lives. We’re not just handed over to higher callings. God invests lots of time […]

To be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. (Ephesians 4:23,24 NIV) Conflict The hardest conflict for individuals surrendering all to Christ- needing to step away from toxic situations…is becoming different than their friends. So for awhile they’ll keep both ends of the candle burning. Eventually, the candles burns out. We cannot live for Christ and be diluted into the world. For Christians- we live in this world, we’re not part of this world. How does this reflect attitudes? Settle? A sister […]

He dies for lack of discipline, and because of his great folly he is led astray. (Proverbs 5:23 ESV) Coincidence?  Today marks the 43rd anniversary of Roe vs. Wade. Is there a coincidence Washington DC is bracing for an epic blizzard? Even though this storm has cancelled many attending       Walk for Life, prayers will be happening across our nation. Where have we gone wrong, dismissing regard for human life- missing alignment with Biblical foundations? Impact Regard for human life- not just unborn, is declining more every day. I find this links to disrespect for God’s Word, The Bible. […]

And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us. (Romans 5:5 NIV) Power Packed Power packed verse. Hope-God-Love-Hearts-Holy Spirit- Us. We’ll never be good enough to earn God’s love, not necessary. He loved us while we were still sinners. Jesus died on the cross for this very reason. He is our only hope. Battle of Wills Times I’ve been disappointed is when my will tried trumping God’s will- battle of wills. God’s ways are perfect, His plans for us are to prosper and not […]
