A very familiar Bible verse, right?
I like this visual and how the tree is a perfect visual of these three great things! Continue reading “THE THREE GREATS”

MY UTMOST RESPECT
With Veteran’s Day quickly approaching it is rather timely and fitting that I felt inclined to share these thoughts with you this week.
I have a growing respect for those men and women who choose to be involved in the military, law enforcement and as first responders; those who willingly sacrifice so much to fight for and protect our freedom.
This same respect rings true for all those that have been involved in any aspect of those areas in years past. I salute you and thank you from the bottom of my heart.

LIKE MINDED BLESSINGS
Have you noticed and experienced extra blessings when you take time out of your busy schedule to take time to fellowship with like minded believers?
Each of our stories are so important and worth sharing with each other. Yes, like that Community that I talked about last week!
I have found this to be true in my life and experienced that even this week. Continue reading “LIKE MINDED BLESSINGS”
COMMUNITY
At the most recent weekend retreat I attended, I was talking briefly with a gal about “community” in terms of a church community. A community where Christian people are there to support each other especially through the tough times; times when we might be struggling and need a little extra support or prayers. A place that is “safe” and secure….like the saying, “What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.”
I often hear of the importance of having those older, wiser mentors in our lives as well as us being able to pour into the lives of those younger people who need our experiences to help them learn more. Yes, more community. Continue reading “COMMUNITY”
SILENCE
Silence is Golden
The Silence is Golden theme resonated with me as I was viewing some pictures I took at a weekend retreat at a nearby lake/conference place.
I couldn’t wait to get away to view the lake and hike; just to Be Still observing God’s wonderful creation and the silence that can often accompany it. Continue reading “SILENCE”
IN AWE
Who is like You among the gods, O LORD? Who is like You, majestic in holiness, awesome in praises, working wonders? –Exodus 15:11 (NASB)
I am in awe of the Lord and His amazing creation! One does not have to look far to see Him at work creating such a wonderful world which surrounds us, as well as all the inhabitants including you and me!
All of nature is pretty awe inspiring to me~one of the first places I connected with God in a powerful way!
DREAM SMALL
This past Friday, on my way to volunteer in the Pre-K 4 year old class, I heard a song on the radio whose lyrics really resonate and bless my soul.
For those of you who know me well by now will be shocked to hear that the song was actually NOT by Third Day! 😉
The song is entitled Dream Small, by Josh Wilson. Continue reading “DREAM SMALL”
GOD’S ORCHESTRATION
I always marvel at His perfect orchestration of events in our lives, though it comes as no surprise to me. I am always in awe of His Presence and can’t help but continue to share those things to bring glory to God along with the hope that others will see Him working in their lives as well. Continue reading “GOD’S ORCHESTRATION”
THE LASTS
It was a simple statement a friend shared over breakfast one day that sparked me to ponder the truth of those words more. Sharing that thought with you has been on my radar for a few months now! Continue reading “THE LASTS”
STEP BY STEP
This summer, while on vacation with my family, I conquered something that was very difficult for me. On a much smaller scale I also did a similar activity this past weekend as well.
It produces sweaty hands and fear within me as well as my mind creates doubt that all will be okay. The “what if’s” start running through my mind.
I imagine you might have figured out what my issue is but if not~~
