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 [...]
Forgiveness = Freedom
I'm sure you've heard it said that unforgiveness is like drinking poison yourself yet expecting the other guy to die. Not sure it could be said better. 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 [...]
You can LIVE in God’s Presence!
Did you know that you never have to leave the throne room? That we now have full access to God and we can dwell in His presence all day long? In fact, that is the key to living in total peace. Our God is not like any earthly king who we must request and wait [...]
Winter Days Don’t Have to Be Dark
Is there peace on Earth? It’s not a trick question. With everything we see every day in the news, we are not seeing much peace on Earth. But despite that, how many of you know that God has still made a way for us to walk in peace? The peace that we experience on the [...]
The Path is BRIGHT!
Been thinking about this post for weeks now...not able to completely articulate what's stirring in my heart yet. For me, 2020 was a year filled with much pain, confusion, loss, heartache, anxiety, uncertainty, and revelation. And yet, I have felt the love of the Father like never before. His path is not always the easy [...]
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 [...]
Seek First to Understand
I truly love this quote. This is simply a practical application of the Biblical concept of 'preferring one another'. If we strive for this mindset in our approach to every relationship, it can be a win-win where neither person feels the need to act offensive or defensive. We can trust that the other person is [...]
