The Work of Our Hands
I would love to have a job that I actually love and am truly passionate about. That has eluded me. I have struggled with being practical versus being a dreamer. How do you find the balance? Psalm 90:12 Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a
Truth and Light
God is light and God is truth. Holy Spirit guides us if we are open to it. Verse Psalm 119:105 “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” It will not lead us astray. Psalm 43:3 says Send forth Your light and
No Fear Days of Evil
Psalm 49 asks us in verse 5 why should we fear evil days? We are living in evil days. God has us covered, though. We just need to trust Him. The verses below describe how evil people just die like everyone else. You can look for them, but they will
Psalms 24
1 The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it; 2 for he founded it on the seas and established it on the waters. 3 Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord? Who may stand in his holy place? 4
Lamentations 3
I was reading Lamentations 3 for my Bible study today. Chapter 3 is dark at first. Our boy Jeremiah was going through a very difficult time. They tried to kill him by throwing him in a pit. He was saddened by what was happening with Israel at the time. Then,
Please vote!
I want to urge everybody who can legally vote, to vote, please. It is primary season and I know it is a midterm, but this midterm is extremely important. And it is not just federal positions, but we need to vote for local and state races, as well. I know
Planet of Water
I was reading Genesis chapter 1 and I was struck what was said about water on the planet. It sounded like the earth was all water at first. But verse 1 says the earth was empty however, it mentions darkness over the oceans. And the Spirit was hovering over the
A Word for the Ladies
When I was in college, I was into Women's Studies and feminism. But when I got out into the real world, I lost that ideology. My values have changed as I have gotten older. I have learned what my identity is from the Bible instead. I argue that
Prodigals-Arms Wide Open
He left the 99 to find the 1. Are you the 1? God's arms are wide open for you. Come home. Just as you are, come. Luke 15:3 Then Jesus told them this parable: 4 “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of
Be Bold and Courageous
Joshua scripture 1:9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”
Historic
We are living in historic times. It is definitely the last of the last days. What God is doing throughout the world was foretold in the Bible. And the prophets of God are still telling us. It will be a bumpy ride with ups and downs. Thankfully, as history unfolds
Shake Baby Shake
The Bible says everything that can be shaken will be shaken ... And it is shaking. God is doing it. I thought about a salt shaker. We are the salt, and God is the shaker. Why is God shaking us? There is a purpose in it. He wants to get our
Pray for the Midterms
Well, it is another election year in the United States. And we need to pray for the midterms. We cannot let the looney, progressive, socialist/communist/marxist demoncrats, sorry I mean Democrats. They will impeach President Trump, force through their crazy, awful policies, raise your taxes, and probably reopen the
I Love Jesus!
As I was worshipping at church this morning, I just felt compelled to tell Jesus that I love Him. I also realized that I have made some progress in my life, but I definitely would not have without Jesus' help. God has been good to me. I never want
What Kind of Person Do You Want to Be?
2 Peter 3:11 asks this question and answers it, as well. 11 Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives.14 So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make
No One Likes A Complainer
Instead of being negative, bring the solutions. The Israelites wandering and complaining in the wilderness are an example to us. See the scriptures in Exodus 15–17 and Numbers 11–21. It is so much better to praise and be thankful. Stay positive and keep a gratitude journal. Think about
Shame
A google search defines shame as "a painful emotional state caused by guilt, unworthiness, and disgrace. It involves a negative self-evaluation where a person believes they are fundamentally flawed, inadequate, or dishonored." God does not want us to see ourselves in this negative light. Jesus died to
Isaiah 61
This verse today popped in my mind: 7 Instead of your shame you will receive a double portion, and instead of disgrace you will rejoice in your inheritance. And so you will inherit a double portion in your land, and everlasting joy will be yours. I pray double portion is
