Pray It Forward
PRAY IT FORWARD As a counselor, I believe in healing. As a Christian, I believe healing occurs when we allow Jesus to enter the most painful parts of our lives, take us by the hand, and show us the way out. As a mother, I believe healing for my children…and their children…and their children begins […]
The Way We Think Matters
Proverbs 23:7 is worth pondering for a few minutes: As a man thinks so he is. Our thoughts are truly a reflection of who we are. People ask me why it is so important to study and meditate on God’s Word. Primarily we do so to renew our minds allowing us to align with the […]
He Loves Me….He Loves Me Not…
Daisies are one of my favorite flowers. They remind me of a long-ago time secured in childhood innocence. As a young girl, I would pick a daisy from my grandmother’s garden and anxiously await as each petal revealed to me the truth about love. I would gently pluck off the first pure-white petal and say […]
A Letter to the Brokenhearted
I’m walking with a young friend through a breakup. I’m grieved by her pain, and honored by her trust in me in equal measure. Don’t you remember the deep, physical pangs that come with the loss of love? It’s like the side piece gets ripped out of your life’s Jenga tower. Everything is falling all […]
Never Give Up
Recently I said out loud to myself: ” I give up”. Those of you who know me, know that I am not a quitter. I will go down fighting, but never give up. As soon as I heard myself say those words, I recalled the Scripture: For the mouth speaks what the heart is full […]
Come Out of Hiding
Good morning, friends. Today I want to talk about our need to be honest with God about those things we’d much rather keep hidden in the closets of our soul. We all have areas where we need to take off our mask and allow our Abba Father to heal us. However, the false-self rises up […]
A Grateful Heart
I am convinced that a grateful heart is the most sacred and precious gift God gives us. In the story of the 10 lepers only 1 came back to thank Jesus after they were healed. I’m wondering if they were so elated they forgot. But if you had leprosy and were healed wouldn’t you find […]
Do We Believe God?
Faith comes from hearing and hearing the Word of God. We all long to have more faith so that our lives will be peace filled. If we can take our burdens to God with certainty that He will carry them, we will live in the beauty of true surrender. The question is that we sometimes […]
The Ultimate Act of Love
Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends John 15:13 Today is Memorial Day. It is the day we as Americans honor the men and women of the United States Armed Forces who selflessly gave of their lives for our country. It is the day we remember and […]
Glass Ceiling
Good morning making space for God friends. We are a community of Christian believers who focus on ensuring that we follow Jesus’ command to seek His kingdom first above all else and He will then provide what we need. It is hard though. So many things pull us in different directions. Following Jesus at the […]
