When He had stopped speaking, He said to Simon, “Launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.” But Simon answered and said to Him, “Master, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I will let down the net.” And when they had done this, they…

Stretched…
We must be able to recognize stress points in our lives and when we need a time out. Otherwise we find ourselves stretched beyond our breaking point. If this is you today, I want to pray for you. Lord, I cry out for those that are at the point of breaking. Those that have been…
Hold on a little while longer
I just wanted to take a moment to encourage your hearts on today. Many of you have been praying. Many of you have been hearing from God. Many of you have been moving actively on what God’s called you to do but you’re still not seeing anything come to pass yet. You’re still not seeing…
Let’s be real for a moment
Behold, You desire truth in the innermost being, And in the hidden part [of my heart] You will make me know wisdom. PSALM 51:6 AMP How often have we been here? When we finally begin to be who we were called to be. When we finally start embracing ourselves, flaws and all and let go…

Can we talk?
As I sit and pen my thoughts this morning, I am reminded of Jesus’s experience in the Garden of Gethsemane. It was at that place He had to make one of the toughest decisions in His life. Should He go forward to the cross, knowing that this was what He was destined to do? Or…
Don’t always believe what you see
“For our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever! So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will…
Passionate pursuit
Passion is significant fuel that helps you persevere despite obstacles, fear, and discouragement. If you are passionate about a goal, you can tap into that passion as a source of energy that will see you through to the finish line. Valorie Burton, Why Not You? Prayer: Lord, may our passion be seen and not just…
