Food for thought today! What do you want your loved ones and others to remember about you after we leave this Earth? I for one don’t want it said, “Oh, that mean old neighbor lady died” or, “Oh, she was so gossipy and full of drama”. We all have a legacy to leave to our family, loved […]

Are you worried about your family members or loved one’s salvation? Have you been ridiculed, laughed at or even shunned by others in your life because you have accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior? Rest assured you are not alone. I myself have lost my “good time” friends, a few close family members […]

 Heavenly Father, as our nation pauses today to remember those in the military who have given their lives for freedoms we enjoy, we pray you would have us all look to you for strength, comfort and guidance. Be with all who serve in our Armed Forces. Bless them and their families. Grant your loving protection. […]

Hebrews 3:13 says: “But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called ‘Today,’ so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness”.  Encouragement goes far beyond complementing or praising others to help them feel better about themselves.  Friends, we are called to encourage one another in ways that will lend support, […]

Change is inevitable. When life throws us unexpected curve balls, we can be assured we will be changed in some way, shape or form. Maybe a change in heart, maybe it will strengthen our relationships or sometimes, life’s events can make us bitter and hateful. Recently, I have endured a second major surgery in less […]

John 4:47-53 In today’s scripture, the official came to Jesus for help, so Jesus did what he asked. Scripture said he went away believing. However, the interesting thing about this verse is the point where the official was met by servants and told him his son was recovering. If he believed what Jesus had done, why did he […]

Deuteronomy 31:6-8 We have all experienced some kind of suffering in our lives. We wouldn’t be human if we haven’t. Physical, emotional, mental and spiritually. If you could choose the worst kind, which would it be? I myself would choose spiritual suffering. All the other ways, we can get through with Christ by our side; but […]

Ephesians 4:31 says: “Get rid of all bitterness …” Simply stated, bitterness is when the wounds from our past are affecting the present.  Bitterness comes from hurtful words or acts that were done to us.  Ultimately, what ends up occurring is that we bleed on people who never cut us.  In an effort to pay back […]

What steals your joy and strength? Nothing will steal our strength and joy like living lives we do not love. The way we store energy is through our desires, values, passions, hopes, dreams, and aspirations, and ultimately our greatest capacity for energy storage is through what we love. Whether it is family, friends, job, church or hobbies. […]

Philippians 4:11-13 How many of us have failed at one thing or another? I think it’s safe to say that we all have. Failing at a position at work, a failing grade at school or maybe you picked the wrong sport to play in; whatever you have tried in your life that just didn’t work […]
