Psalm 23:1-2: “The LORD is my Shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, He leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul.” This past year and a half has definitely been a winter season for me…starting with the birth of my sweet daughter (I was thinking […]
True LOVE for Valentine’s Day
These are some of the verses I have read this week and they are pefectly timed for Valentine’s Day 2012 🙂 : 1 John 4:7-11: “Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know […]
God’s Comfort and Blessings to us right now
God’s comfort and blessings oftentime come through other people, and when other people aren’t available, He reaches His loving hand down and does the work Himself. But, I think, He likes to work through other people. He wants His children to love on each other….just like I want my children to love on each other. […]
I’ll Praise you in the Storm
I love this song by Casting Crowns. It talks about God being Sovereign, and praising Him, no matter if He gives or takes away. I want my faith to be REAL, not dependant on how many blessings He’s poured out on me lately…but my faith to be in HIM and who HE is. I want to […]
A Plea for Our Country
I have found it very difficult the past few years to be patriotic for my country. I care so much for my country and have been called to service in different ways over my lifetime. Right now, I feel it impressed upon my spirit that the most patriotic thing I can do for my country is to pray. […]
Fellowship
God desires us to be in fellowship with Him and other believers. These are some verses I have read the past few days that helped me understand several concepts that John laid out to help me in seeking fellowship with the Lord and with other believers (and to deal with possible fears that might create […]
I’m loving Jesus instead :-)
I am thanking Jessica Simpson for the lyrics, but made just one tiny alteration to her beautiful song…Jesus for angels… I’m loving Jesus instead: I sit and wait Does Jesus contemplate my fate? And does He know The places where we go When we’re grey and old? ‘Cause I have been told That salvation lets their wings […]
Unity
God is showing me so much through my sweet husband right now. We are experiencing right now part of a promise of the Lord, that when two unite, they become one flesh–we are learning from each other and becoming more and more one as time goes on. My husband’s Christ-like characteristics are such a testimony to […]
A Humble Heart
Lately, I have desired the most to have a humble heart. I have tried in my own skin….and it seemed more to me like “false humility.” I didn’t want to have to try to be humble. It shouldn’t be that way. It should come naturally, from a true understanding of my complete dependence on my […]
Matthew
Taken from a online Christian source, “Matthew was not written to chronicle the events of Jesus’ life, but rather to present the undeniable evidence that Jesus Christ is the promised Savior, the Messiah, the King of kings and Lord of lords. It begins by accounting the genealogy of Jesus, then his birth, baptism and public […]
