I have been thinking lately about the Old Identity and the New Identity. It seems in my life (and in the lives of those around me), that at times there can be two different people or identities operating—the Old Man and the New Man. The Bible says to put off the old and to put … Continue reading Two Identities

“Do You Trust Me?”: God’s Goodness In A Backpack
Last week, I went shopping at Goodwill. Twice. I have been praying for an outreach backpack purse that is big enough for my water bottle and lunch, but not bulky like a real backpack. On Tuesday, we were there for bridesmaids dresses, but knew we were coming back Thursday for dollar day. I found a … Continue reading “Do You Trust Me?”: God’s Goodness In A Backpack
Say It.
“Get yourself ready! Stand up and say to them whatever I command you. Do not be terrified by them, or I will terrify you before them. Today I have made you a fortified city, an iron PILLAR and a bronze wall to stand against the whole land—against the kings of Judah, its officials, its priests … Continue reading Say It.
The American Dream Has Lulled Us To Sleep
Do you ever wonder why you hear about miraculous healings and powerful moves of God happening in other countries, but not in America? Stories of thousands responding to the Gospel and the Holy Spirit transforming the hearts of men, but it's somewhere else. Often, when my husband and I hear about these things, we wonder, … Continue reading The American Dream Has Lulled Us To Sleep
Healing Is A Journey… And You Must Walk Through The Valley Of The Shadow Of Death
“In the beginning, you must choose that when you are in the middle, you will see the end.” When I first came to Christ, I heard someone talking about being in the middle. More specifically, the middle of healing. Since I was at the very, very beginning of my walk with the Lord, I had … Continue reading Healing Is A Journey… And You Must Walk Through The Valley Of The Shadow Of Death
When It’s Your Story, You’re Grateful For The Mercy
Originally written in 2019. “Boyfriend” is now “Husband.” My boyfriend and I have been going through The Encounter TV series. (It is a show where people encounter Jesus. A great series that I highly recommend). I was judgmental about one episode saying, “That’s it? No repentance? Just forgiveness with a simple, ‘I’m sorry Jesus’???” I … Continue reading When It’s Your Story, You’re Grateful For The Mercy

Romance With Jesus Part 2: The Key To A Successful Marriage Relationship
I have a theory about relationship. I believe that as you fall deeply, madly, and truly in love with Jesus, as you chase after Him as hard and as fast as you can with every fiber in your being, He brings someone (who is matched perfectly by the way) alongside you to run your race … Continue reading Romance With Jesus Part 2: The Key To A Successful Marriage Relationship

Do you even … Continue reading Romance With Jesus Part 1: Have You Ever Heard Of Such A Thing?
Holiness & Halloween
As a follower of Jesus Christ, I feel convicted not only to abstain from Halloween, but to pray against it. It is a satanic holiday and wickedness is exalted. You can try to justify it up, down, and sideways, but there really is no justification for participation. Even if you don’t think you celebrate Halloween … Continue reading Holiness & Halloween
