God’s Reason Does Not Lie Within Us

 Isaiah 55:8  For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord. I remember the day when I made peace with not always understanding God’s ways. In my past I had been betrayed, beaten, robbed, I was lonely and alone. I worked…

The Tissue Issue

John 13:3-5  Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel around his waist. After that, he…

A Lesson Learned About Answered Prayer

Colossians 3:16  Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts. As I have grown in my relationship with Christ I have learned…

My Confession About Prayer

Mark 14:38 “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” I often wonder, what could have been the disciple’s story, had they stayed awake to pray with Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane. I wonder how…

Trust and My Dentist

Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding… This verse is probably one that I am reminded of most often. As recently as this week, while I was sitting in the dentist chair, I was reminded. I have a new…

A Prayer For You

John 19:30   Jesus said, “It is finished.”    It is finished. No more trying to fix it. No more trying to be worthy. No more struggling to be good enough. Stop it.   It is finished. Rest.   Have peace, have the Peace only Christ can offer. Stop wrestling and…

Resolution or Sanctification

Romans 6:17-18 But thanks be to God that, though you used to be slaves to sin, you have come to obey from your heart the pattern of teaching that has now claimed your allegiance. You have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness. A…
