Both important. Just like we can’t always live in the rarefied mountaintops, we can’t continually live in the valleys (and stop seeing valleys as negative, stressful, unforgiving). We live on both, separately, and both are important to our growth. Both provide learnings and insights into living our lives. We all need encouragement, and typically those […]

It appears that much, if not all, of our attention is in reacting to the ‘symptom’ rather than attempting to cure the ‘disease’. Simple example: we have and live in a violent society. It appears to become more vicious and violent… daily. What is our response? To focus on one aspect – weaponry and work

I love starting my day with a cuppa and chatting with the Lord. Offensive? Not reverential enough? Presumptuous? Why??? Exactly what is your relationship with Him? ‘Out there’? For crisis times? Honestly, I don’t believe this is what the Lord desires. Coming to Him only when we need something (for ourselves or others) doesn’t seem

What you do now begins to determine what a year from now becomes. What do you want it to look like, who do you want to be? What do you plan – plan, not just hope – will you have accomplished? What will next year look and feel like? Granted, you can’t see tomorrow from
Is that how you would describe your life … lesser? Why? Why would you choose lesser? And, like it or not, it is You who is doing the choosing. It’s because (you don’t have or you do have…fill in the blank) that stops you. So, to make certain I am understanding you correctly, it’s other

Either they’ve not learned or been taught Who they now are and Whose they are. These gifts and promises are not just idle words
Do you have any expectations from God? Do we even have the ‘right’ to expect anything from Him? Hasn’t He already done everything (and more) He needs to do? Regardless, of what has been done, do we still harbor that first He has to (fill in the blank)? My response is – of course we
“No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, And their righteousness is from Me, Says the Lord.” (Isaiah 54:17, NKJV) Yes, you did read that correctly. NO weapon will succeed against us… ever! Too
Standing on what’s right according to the Lord’s principles isn’t always easy. It isn’t always popular… but that doesn’t make it wrong. Simplistic perhaps, but truth is truth and doesn’t suddenly become ‘relative’ when truth doesn’t mesh with popular thought (or our ‘comfort level’). Whoever said that being a Christian is a walk in the

True for you? Personally… I think I’m lazy because I don’t want to try and remember if I give different persona’s and words to person A when I am with person B. Do not like these kinds of games and don’t want to waste my time, energy, and thought life remembering who I am with
