For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.– ROMANS 6:23 He smiled widely as he mounted the stairs and approached the front door to the house. One hand behind his back, obviously hiding something. As he walked through the doorway, he leaned over…

Peace be still!
Everyday we are faced with the choice to rest in the promises of God or to stress over the problems we encounter. It should be an easy decision to make but yet we find ourselves often caught between two opinions. On one hand we want so much to trust and believe that God will do…
Believing is seeing
“He was fully convinced that God is able to do whatever he promises.” Romans 4:21 NLT Pray and Go. Sometimes in life we have to move forward knowing that all things will work out the way it is supposed to. We don’t always know the beginning, the end, and the middle. No, God only gives…
We all need somebody
When God’s people are in need, be ready to help them. Always be eager to practice hospitality. Romans 12:13 NLT I used to feel like a prisoner locked inside my own world not knowing how to escape. Have you been here? Have you noticed that it is hard to talk to others around you about…
Don’t you forget!
I will give thanks to you because I have been so amazingly and miraculously made. Your works are miraculous, and my soul is fully aware of this. Psalms 139:14 GW When you know your worth, your value and your truth you begin to set proper boundaries around your life. Father thank you for teaching me…

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…
Get Back Up Again
Ephesians 3:16-17 (AMPC) May He grant you out of the rich treasury of His glory to be strengthened and reinforced with mighty power in the inner man by the [Holy] Spirit [Himself indwelling your innermost being and personality]. We often give up on ourselves when we are faced with insurmountable odds. We lose the fight…
Are you listening?
“Today, if you hear [my] voice, do not harden your hearts….” These words from Hebrews 3:15 stirred in my spirit this morning as I sat down to pen my thoughts. How often have we avoided the presence of God? It is so easy to get busy with everyday life that we forget to sit down…
Hanging On By A Thread?
1 Peter 5:7-11 (MSG) 6-7 So be content with who you are, and don’t put on airs. God’s strong hand is on you; he’ll promote you at the right time. Live carefree before God; he is most careful with you. 8-11 Keep a cool head. Stay alert. The Devil is poised to pounce, and would…
