With the change of season here in Pennsylvania, I thought as I was slipping on my coat, “why do I do that?” Well I do that because I don’t want to be cold, to protect myself from the weather and to be comfortable. Why do we walk out into this world that is full of evil and danger that surrounds us without putting on […]
What negative thoughts are dominating your minds? You’re not good enough, no one loves you, I’m not pretty enough, I’m not skinny enough, I don’t fit in, etc. When we don’t have God’s promises embedded in our hearts and minds, that leaves room for the enemy to sneak in and takeover. I know I have to personally listen […]
A few months back, I was praying for some time off work. Just a little break is all I was asking for. Then low and behold, I was involved in a car accident and have been unable to work since May. Ugh! When people say be careful what you pray for, I am a great […]
If you are a Christian and have been saved by Jesus’ blood that was shed on the cross, is that where everything stops? Is being saved enough or do we need a lord, a king to follow? I fear this is the mind set of many brothers and sisters. Christ didn’t die so we can just […]

We all have bad days, am I right? It may start out as a beautiful morning, birds singing, kids are getting along while getting ready for school, everything is moving smooth as silk, then “bam!” Car starts spitting because you are on “E” because you forgot to get gas the night before. Your son forgot […]
My pastor made up a new word Sunday…”Adamness” – meaning are we stuck in the old earthly suit and slaves to sin or are we with Jesus, free of sin, redeemed and forgiving? Before Jesus, we had no way of making it right with God because He can’t stand sin. Yes, they offered the blood […]
Come on fall and cooler weather, am I right? Oh man this summer has been so hot, humid, and uncomfortable to say the least. I, along with everyone I know, are so ready for the next season of cool, refreshing breezes blowing in our opened windows and feeling the freshness and crispness of the autumn […]
As some of you may know, I recently had to undergo surgery due to an auto accident I was involved in several months ago. At no fault of my own, I was rear-ended while stopped at a red light, causing my car to spin out of control, seriously injuring my shoulder. I have been out […]
