Goodbye to the Pond

In a few days, it is the series finale of Hallmark show "The Way Home." It will be sad to see it go. No more jumps in the pond. If I am honest, it does not surprise me that it got cancelled. Hallmark placed season 3 on Friday

God Bless the USA

This year is the 250th birthday of the United States. I am looking forward to the celebration on July 4th. For one, it is historic. I want to listen to the patriotic songs. You know the songs ... There is supposed to be a huge event. I truly believe that the

Work in Progress

When I was a kid, I used to sing the song "He's Still Working on Me." I was a work in progress then and I am still a work in progress now. But thankfully, God is still changing me to be more like Him. How much

Let's Talk Extraterrestrial ...

The US government has been releasing files about aliens. Are we alone in the universe? It is a big place after all. I know people believe what they believe, but I do not believe in aliens. However, I do believe that demons are real. I've heard that the

I Can Do It!

I was struck with the ERV translation of Isaiah 66:9 In the same way, I will not cause pain without allowing something new to be born.” This tells me that there is purpose for our pain. And that at the end of all our suffering, there is a reward-

New Day

I don't know about you, but sometimes I just want to have a fresh start. The same old same old is old enough. I just want to be unstuck. I want to get away from all of my problems. Perhaps, I just want some new adventures. In nature,

Hello God, it is the church. Are you there?

I previously wrote that the church needs to be full of God and Holy Spirit, so it can be full of people. When the church is full of the presence of God, there is joy and freedom. There are signs and wonders. People will be freed and delivered. If the

Accountability

I do not understand how there is such a lack of personal accountability and responsibility in the world these days. I just thought that it was part of growing up that we learn about taking responsibility for our actions and admitting our mistakes. Isn't that why parents punish

From Darkness to Light

There is darkness around us. We know evil hides in the darkness because the light would reveal the truth. Satan lies and he needs us to believe his lies. The Bible says that God will bring everything that is hidden out into the light. The plans of the enemy will

Just a Little Talk With Jesus

You know prayer is a powerful tool when even false religions practice prayer. I know life is busy and it can be difficult to spend time with God. However, prayer is vital to get to know God. When we spend time in God's presence, we can find wisdom,
