Greetings, Have you learned the benefit of just becoming still when the pressures of life become unbearable? Our tendency is to get busy so we can forget about our problems. When our lives are stressed, we go shopping, to the gym, visit with friends, etc.   The trouble with being so busy is that we […]

Greetings,  The media learned long ago that “bad news” sells.  According to the old joke, a man was standing on a bridge getting ready to jump. After a passerby called 911, a policeman came and told the man, “Don’t jump. It can’t be that bad. I’ll tell you my problems and then you tell me

Greetings, We read in Psalm 145:9 (NKJV): “The LORD is good to all, And His tender mercies are over all His works.” How do we know that God is good to us? During times of blessing, we often take His goodness for granted. It’s only when we stop and think of all the good things in our

Greetings, We read In 1 Peter 4:12-13 (NKJV) – “Beloved, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you; [13] but rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christ’s sufferings, that when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy.” Have

Greetings, What causes heaven to be “heaven?” Is it because there are no hospitals or diseases there? Is it because there aren’t screaming sirens and crime? Or is it because divorce, suffering and even death do not exist there?  Could it rather be it’s because of WHO is in heaven? Is it because God is

Greetings, Read with me in Luke 22:31-32 (NKJV) – “And the Lord said, “Simon, Simon! Indeed, Satan has asked for you, that he may sift you as wheat. [32] But I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail; and when you have returned to Me, strengthen your brethren.” Have you ever noticed how stress

Greetings, Today, this is my prayer for you: Philippians 2:9-10 (NKJV) – “Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, [10] that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth.” There

Greetings, This is my word of encouragement for you today:  Acts 17:28 (NKJV) – “….for in Him (God) we live and move and have our being.”  God is the very breath that His children breathe. We exist and abound in Him, because He is always unshakable. The economy, government, financial security, politics    . . . and even tomorrow—can be

Greetings, During times of great stress and difficulty, it seems so hard not to complain.  But thankfulness can quickly turn a hardship into a blessing. Notice what happened when Israel complained: Numbers 11:1 (NKJV) – “Now when the people complained, it displeased the LORD; for the LORD heard it, and His anger was aroused.”  God wanted His

Greetings, Join me today as we pray: Psalm 79:9-10b (TPT) – “Our hero, come and rescue us! O God of the breakthrough, for the glory of your name, come and help us! Forgive and restore us; heal us and cover us in your love. Why should all the nations sneer at us, saying, “Where is this God
