Today I just want to make a recommendation. I highly recommend reading 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 everyday. In Psalm 119:105 David said, “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path” (KJV). In Proverbs 6:22 it says, “When you go, they [the words of your parents' God] shall lead you; when you [...]

Yesterday I wrote about King David. I spoke of his confidence as he faced the giant Goliath. The entire army of Israel feared this giant, but David faced him without an ounce of fear. What was it about David that made him so fearless? The name David means ‘beloved’. David was not only named ‘beloved’, [...]

One day as I was spending time in prayer I felt overwhelmed by a desire to not be ordinary. I longed to leave a mark on this world, to do something bigger than myself. I cried out to God and said, “I will never be satisfied unless I do mighty exploits for You LORD”. His [...]

This past Sunday the message at our church was on the goodness of God. The pastor read from Psalm 27:13 which states, “I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living” (KJV). The pastor spoke about a recent trip he took with an evangelist [...]

Imagine a life without fear. Imagine looking at your checkbook, your bank account, your 401K and not being afraid. Imagine looking at your sick child and not being afraid. Imagine looking death in the face and not being afraid. Imagine looking at your family, your enemies, your co-workers, the team you manage, with all their [...]
Fear Not, Only Believe

Many years ago there was a situation in my family that I was greatly concerned about. It involved a child. And everytime I thought about her and her situation I would become anxious. I knew this would not help the situation at all, but I also was having so much trouble not letting the situation [...]
So This Is Love

First John 4:8, 16 tell us that “God is Love”. So if we truly want to know more about love, we are going to have to learn more about God. In John 14:9 Jesus said, “Anyone who has seen Me has seen the Father” (Amplified). So let’s take a look at Jesus and by looking [...]

Just finished my first week blogging on love. Thanks to everyone who visited the site and especially feltsdia who left lots of great comments and my husband who found all my typos (and helped me get the site going). This past week I awoke every morning to the voice of Love. I awoke to the [...]
Facets of Love

I’m teaching a series of classes on love at my church and have discovered how very difficult it is to define God’s love. The two terms used in the Bible for God’s love are hesed and agape. Hesed is a Hebrew word found in the Old Testament. One of the definitions for hesed is unfailing [...]
Love Gives

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son…” (John 3:16, KJV). Love compelled our Creator to give His Son. Love compelled the Son to give His life. “I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.” “The bread that I will give is my flesh, [...]
