Dreaming with God
Have you ever thought about dreaming with God? What I mean by that is taking time to hear from God– maybe on a walk, or on a retreat, making space to hear specifically from the Lord and what is on His heart. Some of my favorite scriptures about dreaming with God: Proverbs 16:3-Commit to the Lord […]
Beware of Life Passing By
Good morning to all of my making space for God friends! Here in South Carolina the weather is absolutely stunning. Birds are singing, flowers are budding, the grass is greening. As I walked through my garden I heard a still small voice. I recognize this voice because for many, many years He has spoken to […]
Joy Comes in the Morning
Some of you reading this blog today may be feeling joyless. We all feel that way at times, but what I have grown to realize, is the definition of joy is inner contentment from giving rather than getting. Joy does come from external circumstances such as the birth of a child, or a job promotion […]

Resurrection Perspective
Easter morning…. the tomb was empty. It was the single most significant event ever to transpire. Jesus Christ rose from the grave!!

Empowering Fear
I am increasingly aware of how easy it is to empower fear. Fear is a nasty, life-sucking, counterfeit to love. Scripture tells us that God’s perfect love casts out fear. That sounds easy. Just ask God to cast out any fear that you have and voila! No, it does not work that way. God is able to cast […]
How to Read Scripture
I am often asked how to read Scripture. My response is to allow the Word to read you, to have the Word speak to you as a love letter from God the Father. When I read Scripture, I ask the Lord to speak to me through His Word and journal what I sense He is […]
When God Says No
I have been reading a terrific book by Lee Strobel titled The Case for Faith. Perhaps some of you have read his first bestseller book Case for Christ. Strobel was a journalist for the Chicago Tribune and as an atheist tried to prove that God did not exist. I have discovered that one of the […]
River of His Presence
I want to share with you a little bit about peace. When we make space for God, His peace becomes available to us. No matter what trial or difficulty you may be facing, God’s peace gives hope. See the below entry from my devotional, Sitting at His Feet, for encouragement that the Lord has given […]
