When my daughter was a teenager, the day before starting her freshman year of high school, she fractured her femur while playing on a trampoline in our neighbor's yard. It was also right before she was to start dance lessons, which was a dream she was finally ready to fulfill. After a long night in [...]

Faith Operates By Saying!
Jesus spoke to the wind and waves! We, too, are going to have to speak to EVERY SINGLE THING that is out of place in our lives! Faith comes by hearing, but it does not operate by hearing, it operates by SAYING!!! In other words, your miracle is in your mouth! Take some time each [...]
Am I a Fraud?
Am I a fraud? Has this question ever buzzed around your head like it has mine? Has that old spirit of condemnation tried to sink its teeth into you, too? This question has often tried to sidetrack me into doing nothing. Feeling unusable, thus drawing back into complacency. Can I still lay hands on others [...]
God is Not Afraid of Our Mess
Life is messy...people are messy...relationships are messy. Jesus came to redeem people from the messiest stuff. He's not intimidated by real life and we shouldn't be either. He's the only perfect one. Some people's messes may be more evident than others, but we are all a work in progress. Apathy says I see your mess. [...]
We Forgive Because We Have Been Forgiven
There are so many times in the Word where God tells us that we need to forgive. When we withhold forgiveness, it may seem like we are in control. In control of our feelings and the way we wish the other person felt. To hold something over them, to not release them, but really we [...]

When we hold onto unforgiveness we allow its bitterness to poison our own hearts and make us feel sick. But when we choose to forgive or to release [...]
Christmas Miracles!
I believe in CHRISTmas miracles! I believe in EVERYDAY miracles, too! If we acknowledge CHRIST everyday and seek to find it, we can see the very power of God at work in our lives. Miracles are not always supernatural. They are every little thing we have been blessed with, every new day we are alive [...]
One Bit of Unbelief Against the Word of God is Poison
"Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you will abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." Romans 15:13 I'd like to quote Smith Wigglesworth, who was a man of great faith and prayer when talking about hope in believing God's Word. "God [...]
We DO Faith, BY Faith!
Wherever I let my mind go is what possesses me. My feelings will line up in that direction and then words and eventually, actions will follow feelings. It is the same in the positive or negative direction. It begins with a thought but will eventually be followed by feelings. Sometimes it seems like feelings came [...]
Worship Releases Faith
Choosing to worship, especially in the midst of a trial, is one of the greatest acts of faith we can do. In fact, worship is one way we can release our faith. Did you know that you can have faith but not have it working for you because you have failed to release it? We [...]
