Press into God
The Lord is my Shepherd; I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil for you are with me, […]
Overwhelmed?
Good morning and welcome to Making Space Mondays. Today we face a crisis that many of us never thought we would experience in our lifetime. Sickness, disease, yes, but a pandemic (definition- prevalent over a whole country or world) probably not. In an article on the story of influenza, I learned that in the late […]
Facing Your Goliaths
This week as we continue our Making Space Mondays, my topic is facing our fears– our Goliaths; those things that threaten to take us down. I saw a post this week on our Drawing near Facebook that was so powerful: David, a shepherd boy, one day called to be King of Israel, learned to face […]
Set the World on Fire

Why Me?
Sometimes I ask myself the question: ” Why me Lord?” Why do I have to forgive when I have been wronged? Why do I have to do something for someone else when I am so busy? Why do I have to be kind when someone has been unkind to me? The questions are endless and […]

Guest Blog – Qualified
Last month, I shared a guest blog post from my friend, Sally Wallace. Sally is the women’s ministry leader for St. Andrew’s Church. A little more about Sally: I am an English teacher, attorney, and mom of four kids. The only way this is accomplished with sanity is through the power of prayer; hence, this blog. […]
Feed My Sheep
Good morning and welcome to Making Space for God Mondays where as a community of believers we seek to make space for God. Today we are going to answer the question: What field has God placed us in and who are we supposed to be feeding? What I mean in common language is; Where has God placed me […]
