Christ follower desiring others to find Him in their own lives. What unity there would be if we all would live out His love.
Mary exhibited an awakened soul that flourished because of her God. God placed quite a calling on her life, one which made many turn their heads and gossip while others looked down on her in shame. Despite this reality, she embraced what God had planned for her. When God reveals a calling upon you, how … More An Awakened Soul
The rug came flying out from under my feet as I heard the news. A numbness enveloped me, along with a darkness that felt terribly frightening. Have you ever experienced something like this? This was what I experienced five years ago. I was told I had breast cancer. I can tell you; nothing quite prepares … More Hanging On to Every Word
In the last blog, we discussed the dichotomy between what we see, think and feel versus what God has told us. In this divine middle ground is where faith lies.

Throughout the gospels, Jesus challenged people’s faith. “How serious are you in following Me,” He might say? You could find Him in the Temple as well as going from town-to-town sharing who He is and what it means to follow Him. In Mark 12, Jesus gave many lessons on practical living that would cause people … More Allocating God’s Funds
With God by my side, I have no reason not to trust. My gaze should be so focused upon Him. I should be so enamored of who He is that no perilous cliff (or rainstorm) should shake my belief. God and I have traveled the years together and I have found Him to be faithful. … More A Lesson in The Rain
