Greener

Philippians 4:11,12 I have recently returned to my “home” church after venturing out and seeing if I may be happier or more content at a different church. I was gone for a year and a half from my home church mainly due to the feeling of being unfed. I had become dull and my pastor […]

Heart Connected to God

Romans 8:26-28 “The Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. For example, we don’t know what God wants us to pray for. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words. And the Father who knows all hearts knows what the Spirit is saying, for the Spirit pleads for us […]

Save Souls

“Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.” (Matthew 28:19) Is your church more worried about adding to the number of members or reaching the lost?

Wake and Give Thanks

Hearts Full of Love

Yes, I still have my Christmas tree up! My grandchildren came to visit this past weekend and they flipped when they saw my Christmas tree still up and lit. I just replied to them that I’m not ready to take it down. It’s calming, it’s festive and I am still enjoying the spirit of the […]

Struggles Will Pass

Living in Pennsylvania, we all know what the winters are like here. Lately, with the record breaking cold snap we just had, it was pretty unbearable to say the least. Just another season in Pa! But when you are actually in the cold, it feels like you will never feel the warmth of the sun […]
