Psalm 40:3 (AMPC) “And He has put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many shall see and fear (revere and worship) and put their trust and confidence in the Lord.” I have always loved music. I grew up in a very musical family. My father played multiple instrumentsContinue reading “A New Song”

Light at the End of the Tunnel
Psalm 30:5 (AMPC) “For His anger is but for a moment, but His favor is for a lifetime or in His favor is life. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.” Sometimes in life, the way gets hard. We go through trials and tribulations. A path that seemed clear justContinue reading “Light at the End of the Tunnel”
Waiting for God
Genesis 18:14 (AMPC) “Is anything too hard or too wonderful for the Lord? At the appointed time, when the season [for her delivery] comes around, I will return to you and Sarah shall have borne a son.” I don’t like to wait. I’m not sure that anyone really does. Waiting is hard! Impatience is definitelyContinue reading “Waiting for God”
Too Good To Be True
Genesis 18:13 “And the Lord asked Abraham, Why did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I really bear a child when I am so old?” Have you ever come across one of the promises of God and thought it was too good to be true? Perhaps you’ve read a verse about God healing someone or blessing someoneContinue reading “Too Good To Be True”
A Work Of Art
Genesis 1:2 “The earth was formless and void or a waste and emptiness, and darkness was upon the face of the deep [primeval ocean that covered the unformed earth]. The Spirit of God was moving (hovering, brooding) over the face of the waters.” (AMPC) Do you ever wonder if life is just a game ofContinue reading “A Work Of Art”
When Things Get Difficult
Do you ever feel like the same struggles come up over and over again? If you’re anything like me, you have this inner critic that seems to keep the same phrases on repeat. Listening to that inner critic usually makes you feel more discouraged and like you just can’t seem to learn whatever lesson you’reContinue reading “When Things Get Difficult”
New Beginnings
Genesis 1:1 “In the beginning, God [Elohim] created [out of nothingness] the heavens and the earth.” (AMPC) In the beginning God created. Ponder that for a moment with me. God created. Sometimes in life we can find ourselves in a whirlwind of activity and chaos. Life can feel very randomized. It can feel very outContinue reading “New Beginnings”
Living Beyond Fear
Psalm 27:1 ”The Lord is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life—of whom shall I be afraid?“ Fear comes in many shapes and sizes. Sometimes fear is loud, in-your-face, and obvious. But sometimes fear comes in disguise. It masquerades as other things. Good thing. Things that sound nothing like fear. This month as we focus on Overcoming Fear, payContinue reading “Living Beyond Fear”
God’s Promises Are Always Bigger
Have you ever asked God for something you really, really wanted? I’m talking about the type of desire in your heart that goes so deep it consumes all your thoughts. A desire that seems to take top priority in all your prayers. It’s that one thing that you’re sure if God would just answer thisContinue reading “God’s Promises Are Always Bigger”
A Year in the Rear-view
The Bible uses the word “remember,” or some variation of that word, 304 times! I think it’s safe to say that God really, really wants us to “remember.” But what does He want us to remember? I believe the answer lies in Psalm 103:2–“Bless the Lord, Oh My Soul, and forget not all His benefits….”Continue reading “A Year in the Rear-view”
