Philippians 2:3-4, James 2:14-17 In my line of work, I work with individuals who are over the age of 60; many of them in their 70s and 80s. Every day I am amazed with these individuals. They are from a generation of very strong and independent individuals. Many of them did whatever they had to […]
Haggai 1:1-12 In today’s culture, we find it hard to take time out during our day to have some quiet time. Many of us go from task to task, filling our schedules with various things to do. Even in the down times, we are preoccupied with cell phones, tablets, handheld game systems, iPods, etc. I […]

Recently, I had the opportunity to visit a church service at an area nursing facility. My mom is there rehabilitating from a stroke she suffered over a month ago. A little reluctant to join in, (unsure of what to expect), it was one of the most uplifting services I have been to. These folks come […]
Exodus 14:14 You know how some seasons just never feel like they are going to end? Like life can’t throw one more thing your way? Well, that has been me the last couple months. My family and I have been through some of the toughest times lately where most families would be at each other’s […]
Galatians 3:1-4 “Oh, foolish Galatians! Who has cast an evil spell on you? For the meaning of Jesus Christ’s death was made as clear to you as if you had seen a picture of his death on the cross. Let me ask you this one question: Did you receive the Holy Spirit by obeying the […]
Joel 2:25-27 Recently I went through a time where it felt as though I were ready to give up. I had worked so hard to get to where I was; good credit, paying my bills on time, a job that I enjoyed, etc. The struggles my husband and I have gone through recently made me […]
