Performances are acts with “action” and “cut” as their bookends, whereas the rescued heart is a continual blaze without pause giving the world a correct summation of Christ! This Christmas, are you a performer or a rescued heart? As Christians … Continue reading a Performer or a Rescued Heart?

Mad Dash
If you’re like me, you are dumbfounded that Thanksgiving is around the corner, which is next week people!

Election Day Uneasiness?
Are you experiencing Election day uneasiness? Keep trusting in Almighty God; He works through the avenues of government to bring about His desired purpose.

“MEOW”
I don’t know about you but for me it doesn’t take much for my focus to shift, and before you know it, I’m plummeting. The Bible reveals Satan as a roaring lion seeking someone to devour (1 Peter 5:8). I love looking up word synonyms and when I looked up devour, I happened across two words … Continue reading “MEOW”

Elvis & Mylon’s Mistake
"Without Him, how lost I would be!" Nothing could be truer! When I was about 8 years old, I asked Jesus to be my Savior. I knew I was a sinner and there wasn't anything I could do on my own to change that fact (Romans 3:23; Titus 3:5). Nevertheless, hearing the "good news” Jesus … Continue reading Elvis & Mylon’s Mistake
Impatience (Extended week of no dairy, no sugar)
These are not my words; I have rearranged a bit and added my own commentary: "I don't like to have to repeat myself. I tend to want the people (for me it's my husband, and my children when they were small) around me to understand quickly." (Apparently, the author has been spying on me.) (So,) … Continue reading Impatience (Extended week of no dairy, no sugar)
