7.31.2020 – A Unified “Voice”

July 31, 2020

I’m realizing that right now, is a time that we —”the church” —are meant to be God’s “answer” and His “voice” of truth and hope to the earth. 💝☀️ But what happens when the church doesn’t have a purified, “unified voice?” Can the voice of the Lord be clearly heard through the church, to the… Read More 7.31.2020 – A Unified “Voice”

7.27.2020 – “Noise Cancellation”

July 27, 2020

Did you know that “criticism” is the same as “condemnation”? The definition of “criticism” is, “the expression of disapproval of someone or something based on perceived faults or mistakes.” “disapproval, fault-finding, denunciation, condemnation” Perhaps we’re learning to hold our tongue when it comes to criticizing others… …but what about that “inner critic”? Do we command… Read More 7.27.2020 – “Noise Cancellation”

7.20.2020 – Dismantling these “Ticking Time Bombs”

July 20, 2020

Over the last few years, my life has felt like a time of constant “testing” — a journey of the revealing of things “hiding” deep within my heart. You see, I asked the Lord to help me in dealing with my heart, I asked Him to help me and to transform me… and, boy has… Read More 7.20.2020 – Dismantling these “Ticking Time Bombs”

July 17, 2020

And just like that, I see it… Hand-in-hand with my Heavenly Father, He brings me to the next thing we’ll face together. So unexpectedly… A realization gently revealed to me… And He didn’t have to do it this way, a most kind and gentle way…but He did. 💝 He showed me a wound that had… Read More 7.17.2020 – The Next Bandaid

7.10.2020 – I am not Defeated by my Weakness…

July 10, 2020

I’ve always felt like the “weakling” of the group. The “least” in many ways… I more than realize my lack of “ability” compared to all the others. “God why did You make me to be so weak and needy? Why did You make me to be so sensitive and soft? How can You use any… Read More 7.10.2020 – I am not Defeated by my Weakness…

God, I love when You set things right. 💖✨ Relationships… Attitudes… Hearts… Vision… Pathways… Memories… Journeys… Our whole lives… Think of a time when you realized… that something has somehow changed… “I was there, now I am here.

6.26.2020 – The Illusion of “How I feel.”

June 26, 2020

When I think of the word, “illusion” I think of “sight” mostly…. what I see. Like, what I am seeing with my physical eyes, how the situation seems to appear on the surface—I realize could be an “illusion” compared to what is really happening “under the surface” or in the unseen realm, which is more… Read More 6.26.2020 – The Illusion of “How I feel.”

No matter how much we want a “blind” person to be able to “see” what we want them to see, to see the truth, if that person is “blind”…. they’re not going to be able to “see” it. It would take an act of God to remove the “blindness” that would allow that person to… Read More 6.13.2020 – Walking into the Light

June 11, 2020

Have you ever tried to “put your thinking cap on” and “think real hard?”….. And it didn’t seem to work?

6.4.2020 – The Sting of Rejection

June 4, 2020

I’m convinced that rejection is one of the most painful things a person can endure. There are many different forms of rejection, there are many different levels of it. Some kinds can be honestly unintentional and yet we still feel it, and other kinds of rejection can be about as mean-spirited as you can get.… Read More 6.4.2020 – The Sting of Rejection

June 2, 2020

I can’t get over how quickly this world can shift and change…almost overnight. How quickly these “waves” can come….how quickly these “waves” can cause destruction.

Have you ever felt the need to be “perfect”? Or to, at least… “appear” perfect?

May 17, 2020

For the one who feels “forgotten” or “unseen” in this time… I feel compelled to write something this morning… It’s a lie. It’s a dangerous lie that will take you down into a dark pit of bitterness and offense, if you allow it to take you there.

I woke up and almost immediately, it was like my mind wanted to dwell on some things that frustrate me about myself… It was like I thought for a moment, that if I dwelled on this thing, if I took this little trail, and if I ran it through my head a few times, I’d… Read More 5.3.2020 – Saying “No” to the Trail of Distraction

April 30, 2020

I remember a time that my heart was filled with such bitterness, I couldn’t experience and perceive God clearly. I had been “saved” years before, and I was excited about God around that time, but somehow the bitterness creeped in and took me over because I let it —the bitterness, the fear, the anger, the… Read More 4.30.2020 – Heart Transformation
