Get Up!

Later, Jesus went to Jerusalem for a Jewish festival. 2 Near Sheep Gate in Jerusalem was a pool called Bethesda in Hebrew. It had five porches. 3 Under these porches a large number of sick people—people who were blind, lame, or paralyzed—used to lie. 5 One man, who had been sick for 38 years, was…

Be a Seeker

But seek (aim at and strive after) first of all His kingdom and His righteousness (His way of doing and being right), and then all these things taken together will be given you besides.     Matthew 6:33 AMP While reading Beauty for Ashes by Joyce Meyer, the above scripture stood out to me in a new…

Be Free

You have been wandering around in this hill country long enough; turn to the north. Deuteronomy 2:3 (NLT ) It is time to break free! It is time to move forward.  In order to be free you must let go of what you no longer need.  Stop waiting to exhale. Exhale and forgiveness come from…
