1 Peter 3:15 Recently a couple coworkers of mine were having a deep debate on God and the Bible. One is a believer; the other a non-believer. They both approached me with a question of my belief. I was a little hesitant at first because I wanted to represent God to the non-believer carefully but […]

Philippians 2:3 We all know the hit tv show “American Idol” and we all know the famous, brutally honest, and most disliked judge “Simon Cowell”. Not long ago, I ran across someone at work who is, let’s say was very arrogant and self-righteous. She was very focused on herself in her mind; she could do […]

Matthew 11:28 We all go through rough seasons, trials and painful disappointments. It’s unavoidable in this fallen world we live in. Many have a story to tell and how they rose above it all and now live in victory with Jesus Christ at the helm. What about those who just can’t seem to pull it […]

2 Kings 5:1-14 During some recent trials with our finances, I asked my husband “Why work so hard when it all seems for nothing? We work so hard and it still feels like we are falling on our faces.” I can look at that now and realize that I was letting my “exception” in life, […]

Psalm 56:8 There are times in my life when I am so lost or distraught, that I don’t even know where to begin when it comes to praying. Sometimes words are hard to come by. At these times, I find myself falling to my knees and letting the tears fall as I cry out to […]

Galatians 5:16 During our Bible study, my husband and I had a discussion about God’s grace and our relationship with our Creator. If we woke up every morning and found $50, not knowing who it came from, we might thank whoever it was and say “we will pay you back someday”.  Christ gave us the […]

Matt. 20:28, Col. 3:23 “Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.” ― Mother Teresa. Jesus could have just sat around and commanded everyone to do anything He wanted done but He didn’t do that. Jesus specialized in small tasks that everyone else tried to avoid. He washed feet, […]

Proverbs 12:4 (NLT) “Procrastination is one of the most common and deadliest of diseases and its toll on success and happiness is heavy.”― Wayne Gretzky.  This is probably one of my biggest faults. I always think I will get it done no biggie. But the truth is I always wait to the last minute then […]

John 3:16 The subject of love can be complicated but today we are focusing on where it came from. Neurologists, scientists and all the other professionals can give us supposed locations and chemical reactions of love but cannot unlock the mystery of the emotion of love. John 3:16 states, “For God loved the world so […]

Matthew 24 Are you ready for Jesus’s return? I got asked this question from a bell ringer outside our local Walmart over the holidays. Without hesitation, I answered quite quickly, yes, I am ready and excited for his return. After pondering over my answer, I thought, “am I really ready’? Do I live a life […]
