Condemnation … Continue reading Stolen Candy Bar…Conviction or Condemnation?
Are Ya’ll Fallin’ Apart in Fall?
While many are rejoicing, shouting, “Sweater weather! Changing leaves! Back to school!” I fall on my face in fall. I’m already missing the warm, sunny walks, where the temperature only requires me to throw on a t-shirt and jeans. My eyes already thirst for the refreshing color of green, which normally dominates the giant trees … Continue reading Are Ya’ll Fallin’ Apart in Fall?

Call Out to God…He Will Meet Your Every Need
Last week, I got a call from a precious friend I’ve known for years. She is a single mom and grandmother, who suffers with a bad back and other injuries.

Our family … Continue reading Call Out to God…He Will Meet Your Every Need

The devil plays dirty, and it makes me feel like throwing in the towel. He wants to discourage me, hoping I’ll give … Continue reading Knock Out Discouragement…with God’s Word

A Sin is a Sin
Come on Christians! Stand together and speak God's truth, especially at this time when prophesy is being fulfilled! Stop twisting what God says about abortion, gay marriage, and what qualities make for a good king/ president (requirement: to be a man after God's own heart). Worldly truth does not equal God's truth. Man twists scripture … Continue reading A Sin is a Sin
Happy Father’s Day, God!
