I realize that we often hear, at the end of the year, that it’s been a/an (choose your adjective) year. When it is 2020 that we are talking about, that ‘WHAT’ is far more than we realized when we began 1/1/2020. It is difficult, not impossible, to find the ‘good’ in the year. But the […]
2020… What a Year … 2021? Read More »
How many times does the Lord say to us… do not fear? Take a look at how often He does say this in His word. Any thoughts? As a matter of fact, we are told not to fear 365 times in scripture! One for each day of the year.!? Incredible. So why don’t we not
YOU are a trophy for God! Betcha you never thought of yourself in this light. I know I certainly didn’t. Can’t take credit for the revelation… a pastor was giving a message from Galatians and made the comment. Now before you dismiss it out of hand… think about it. And, you are not only a
First consider 2 scriptures: “Then I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?” Then I said, “Here am I. Send me!” (Isaiah 5:8, AMP) “But you will receive power and ability when the Holy Spirit comes upon you; and you will be My witnesses [to
Hmmm… does this mean, “I believe”? And when I say, I believe, do I really mean, I think? Related they are but they aren’t the same. At least to me. For me, ‘I think’ means that I have come to a conclusion, a point of understanding leading to a decision and an act… BUT, I
One of my favorite verses is : “I am convinced and confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will [continue to] perfect and complete it until the day of Christ Jesus [the time of His return].” (Philippians 1:6, AMP) I must admit that sometimes when I’m reading

Becoming a better me … I do write about this a great deal because it’s so important… at least this is what I believe. I have made some discoveries regarding this subject. The first one is desire. You have to want to become your best because no one is going to do this for you! No magic wand.
It’s all about desire … yours! Read More »
“Remain in Me, and I [will remain] in you. Just as no branch can bear fruit by itself without remaining in the vine, neither can you [bear fruit, producing evidence of your faith] unless you remain in Me. I am the Vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in Me and I in him bears much
One of the very first posts I wrote (3/4/10**) was on Character… and it typically is implied in all my posts. Remember, we all are in a continuous process of developing our character. Yes, we slip, sin, err but we also discover, confirm and grow. Some of the thoughts from 2010 were: **If there is
Do we do this? If it’s one of our ‘pet’ beliefs, and not necessarily a widely held one, will we push its adoption to the max? Why? If it is critical, wouldn’t it be a ‘major’ rather than a minor? Do remember we aren’t infallible and, as such, can be wrong. Our interpretation (assumption?) can
