In Deuteronomy chapter 11, it talks about how God commands us to teach our children about Him and His love for us. Verse 19 tells us how we can do that, “You shall teach them to your sons, talking of them when you sit in your house and when you walk along the road and [...]

The True Miracle
Posted in Uncategorized on November 13, 2009 | 1 Comment »
In Bible Study Fellowship this year, we are studying the book of John. In John there are wonderful stories of Jesus performing amazing miracles! From healing people (blind, sick, lame…), to feeding 5,000 people with just 5 loaves and 2 small fish, to walking on water, even raising people from the dead, and many more! Sometimes in my [...]
Prayer = Christmas wish list?

Is our prayer life sometimes like a Christmas wish list? Sometimes I find myself praying, “Lord, I’d like this, and please do this……” Yesterday, I asked a dear and Godly person to pray for a situation in my life, and she said (I’ll never forget this), “You can pray and ask God, but you won’t [...]

I was in line at the store this morning waiting to check out (another lady was behind me waiting too), when a cashier beside us opened her lane. All of a sudden another lady with a full cart, swerved right in front of us and started unloading. She had to have seen that we were standing there [...]

The morning radio program from Joni and Friends encouraged me so much today! I wanted to share part of it with you, and I hope that it encourages you as well……
“Seeing then that we have a great High Priest, Jesus, let us hold fast our profession of faith. For we do not have a High [...]
Blessed Assurance

On Sunday morning at our church, we sang one of the most well known hymns of all time, “Blessed Assurance”. This beautiful hymn was written in 1873 (100 years before I was born), by blind hymn writer, Fanny J. Crosby.
My first memories of this song was when I was a young girl. Since I was the youngest of [...]

This afternoon, as I went to tend to a task upstairs, I asked one of my children to gather the ingredients for Baked Oatmeal, and when I came down stairs later, I would put them together and bake it. A couple minutes later, all was too quiet. When I looked into the kitchen, there gathered not [...]
On Christ the Solid Rock I Stand

As I was struggling to understand the rules and rituals of other religions (and even the ones in my own life), I came across this verse in Colossians 2:23, it says, ”These rules may seem wise because they require strong devotion, humility, and severe bodily discipline. But they have no effect when it comes to conquering [...]
Waiting

Once again, the Esther Bible study that I’m participating in has ministered to me. This weeks study was on the importance of timing. Essentially, “timing” is everything! Our culture today is training us for impatience. The technology in our lives is teaching us – you don’t have to wait! We want everything to be instant!
Yet, [...]
“For such a time as this”

I was reminded today of another reason to trust God. One year ago my Dad had esophageal cancer. It was actually this month, last year, that he had a major surgery to remove the cancer, and from then on it was a hard road. With God’s help, and the love and support of so many people, [...]
