Move Over . . . I Got You
We’ve heard the term “I gotchu” quite a bit lately. In my prayer time this morning, this is what God told me. The way He said it was, “I’ve made provision for that, too.” He’s got my back. He not only has my back, but my front, top, [...]
The Walls Must Come Down
Some of us have experienced pain and/or rejection when it comes to our love lives. Because of this, we’ve set up walls that, in our minds, will protect us. Actually, those walls have a tendency to hurt us because they prevent love from coming to us. Real love doesn’t penetrate a [...]
Sticks and Stones . . .
Some of you may remember the little song we used to sing as a child when someone called us a name (that wasn’t our given name), “Sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me.” That was a lie! The sticks and stones really could [...]
Peaks and Valleys
We were not designed to have mountain-top experiences every day. It’s just not in the plan. If that were the case, there would be no need for any of us to learn, grow or improve. It may sound like a wonderful life to be up there all the time, but I doubt it [...]
Rest, Reflect, Rejuvenate and Restore
All of us need to do these things on a regular basis. If we don’t, we may run into various problems on many levels. It can be dangerous not to do so.
As I was led to this topic this morning, the Holy Spirit reminded me of exactly how this habit started [...]
What Have You Done For Me Lately?
That’s the question God is asking. He’s not talking about the message in the song that was once popular, but what have you done for Him?
Many times, people are busy about trying to do things for other people to impress them or make others think they’re more than they [...]
Kindness Doesn’t Have to Cost a Thing
I’ve been following the news reports about the snow in Maryland very closely. Fortunately, I can get their local channel news via the Internet. It’s been an amazing weekend. None of the post offices around the state were open on Saturday and no mail delivery! You know it’s bad when the [...]
There’s Something Good Inside
Some of us are not quite where we want to be in life. Some are not where God wants us to be. Either way, we have to realize that there is something good inside of us that He wants to bring out. He wants to bring it out, not only for you [...]
Assignments
I really enjoy my volunteer job at the hospital and I’m meeting some very nice and interesting people. Last night a gentleman came in to visit a cousin. He stood there at the desk for a while and we had a pleasant conversation. He told me he is a trucker but that he is ready to [...]
Be A Star
Wherever you are today, you can be a star. All you have to do is let your light shine. Each one of us has a light, but not many of us use it. In reality, other people should see your light as soon as you enter a room. If that has not been [...]
