Let’s Talk About Love… Extraordinary Love
“For this reason I say to you, her sins, which are many, have been forgiven, for she loved much; but he who is forgiven little, loves little.” Luke 7:47 She knew she wasn’t welcome, but she went in anyway. Her long hair, once carefully braided with flashy jewels, fell freely in front on her body. Her face, once adorned with color and shimmer, now clean and bright. She stepped into the room with careful resolve while spotting Him from afar. She would never forget His eyes, much less His Continue Reading
Where Did My Faith Go? {Recharge Wednesday LINKUP}
It’s doesn’t look good. Will you please pray? Those were the words I heard concerning a friend a while back. Although I said I’d pray and of course I did, I have to admit when I heard the diagnosis I automatically had a grim outlook on the outcome.

So why do I sometimes put so much weight on man’s perspective instead of God’s Continue Reading
The Key to Receiving God’s Best {The Atlanta Journal Constitution}

It all started when Jesus was preaching on the shore of the Sea of Galilee, and great crowds were gathered to listen to his teachings. He noticed two empty fishing boats at the water’s edge, while Continue Reading

“And pray on my behalf, that utterance may be given to me in the opening of my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in proclaiming it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.” Ephesians 6: 19-20 (NASB) The underground prison was dug out of solid rock. The prisoner, his guards and provisions were lowered through an opening the size of a manhole, which was the only means of entrance and exit. These holes were often under a Continue Reading
Lord, Save Me from Seesaw Faith!
The two men looked at each other, incredulous. They watched as Moses and Aaron fell face down in front of the assembly, a sign of their great distress. Without a word, the two spies torn their garments, grieving over the disbelief that spread in the camp. They heard loud cries coming from everywhere, and could not believe their ears at the sound of the same old complaints: “If only we had died in Egypt!” “We can’t defeat them. We will all die in Canaan!” “Let us choose a new leader Continue Reading
