Opportunities
Life has a way of challenging us. It tasks us to grow, develop character, and allow things to happen in order to make us into better people. If we choose not to accept this opportunity, we can become bitter, angry, and resentful. Simply put, things happen to everyone. Cars break down. Jobs are lost. Homes …
Where is your faith based?
If your faith as a Christian is based on how much you are financially blessed or the state of your health, you’re in for a rude awakening. NOWHERE in the Word of God are we promised an easy ride. What we are promised is that God will be with us along our journey. I can …
Choosing a Simple Life
“7 Two things I ask of you, Lord; do not refuse me before I die: 8 Keep falsehood and lies far from me; give me neither poverty nor riches, but give me only my daily bread. 9 Otherwise, I may have too much and disown you and say, ‘Who is the Lord?’ Or I may …
Midnight Thoughts
We have all been through trials and tribulations. We have faced dark nights and scary times. However, there are those of us who have been to the gates of hell and back again, and for those women, those people, I have something to tell you. You are precious to God. There has not been one …

Long ago, when I formed you in your mother’s womb, I placed a piece of Myself inside you. I have been with you since your conception. I was there as your organs formed, as your fingers and toes took shape. I determined the color of your eyes and the sound of your voice. I was …
Your Heart
I am doing a work in your heart. There are scarred areas, wounds from deep-seated hurts and fears….. I am healing them. I am ever so gently removing the dead tissue and replacing it with flesh that is alive, feeling, breathing. I am taking away the dead parts that have withered and shriveled up from …
Blessings
Blessings upon blessings upon blessings upon blessings upon blessings. I am going to bless you more deeply, more thoroughly, more intensely than you ever thought possible. Open your hands. I am going to fill them over and over and over again until there is no more room. No more room. Not anywhere. No more room. …
Let Me
Let Me love you. Let go of the past and all it means to you, the good and the bad. There is nothing you can do to change what was. It happened. It’s over. It is part of who you are now, but it does not have to affect who you will be. Give it …
