My son is in the operating room right now with minor surgery. Am I nervous? Yes a little bit but one thing gave me strength and that was inquiring of the Lord. Worry, fear, anxiety they all want one thing, to paralyze, to shut us down, to make us lose hope. But when we turn … Continue reading God actually gives answers to questions in real time??
Remember that time you asked for…
It is a good time of remembrance to take a look at life. What has worked out, what hasn't. Has it really been all for the good, as God promises us? Sometimes the things we want most seem so out of sight, so impossible. But surely there are some things we've prayed for that have … Continue reading Remember that time you asked for…
God’s plans are GOOD
How was I to know that obedience to God really does bring about your dream life?

Exercising begins late, but hey, at least it’s still January!
I didn't resolve to lose weight on New Years Eve. I had just come out of a valley, so to speak, and I just wasn't feeling it. But you know when you just get over a sickness and there's that lull where you don't feel like doing anything and low energy? That was me for … Continue reading Exercising begins late, but hey, at least it’s still January!
Greed and selfishness, it’s got to go!
This morning in my time with God, he showed me a picture of Jacob Marley. Do you remember Ebenezer Scrooge from a Christmas Carol?

And then God dropped the … Continue reading Greed and selfishness, it’s got to go!

I was reading in 1 Corinthians today about our bodies as the temple of God and I had to genuinely evaluate myself on how I am doing with that. There's more to taking care of God's temple than simply eating healthy and working out. There's skin care, nail care, hair care, foot care, oral health … Continue reading God’s Temple. Are you taking care of it?
“Wait and See” to “See and Wait!”
I had the wrong approach. I was waiting for life to happen to me. Wait and see what happens. No direction, no drive, no purpose. Just another day to see what would happen. Well not anymore.

Sunday, the day to reflect!
Today I spent way too much time shopping and not enough focused on some alone time with Jesus. Thankfully I made it to church after getting to sleep well after 2am last night. Too much thinking, not enough time being grateful. What is your too much and not enough? What is working for you? What … Continue reading Sunday, the day to reflect!
