Last month, as we began a new year (2025), I felt the Lord nudging me in a direction that felt uncomfortable. “Lord, I am not sure about this. It is not anywhere near what I would call my “comfort zone.” Sometimes where He takes us may just be to test us or to show us … Continue reading A NEW WORK OF LOVE

Alive and Thriving in ’25!
As another year unfolds, my pledge for a healthy body: eating healthy, fasting and prayer provides a great focus (sugar/dairy fast); Yet this year my greatest alive and thriving focus will be a healthy MIND! An alive and thriving mind! I love books! I am always on the hunt for another good read, a beautiful … Continue reading Alive and Thriving in ’25!
A Comfortable Life
As I consider a new year focus, I know without a doubt God’s Word is front and center. There is no other choice for me as God’s representative. I am a Herald of the King, an ambassador. As God’s chosen instrument to herald the gospel message of Jesus Christ, I must consider how I can … Continue reading A Comfortable Life
2025
January 1 "O God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need for further grace. I am ashamed of my lack of desire. O God, the Triune God, I want to want Thee; I long to be filled with … Continue reading 2025

A Bright Shining Future!
Dear Friends, you only have two choices: Believe the Word of the Lord or Reject His claims! "...so that you may know and believe Me and understand that I am He. No god was formed before Me, and there will be none after Me. I, I am the Lord, and there is no other Savior … Continue reading A Bright Shining Future!
Pick and Choose!
Feeling an attack for truth, God’s truth, I awake at night unable to go back to sleep. It isn’t until I suitably appropriate the WHOLE armor, God’s full armor (Ephesians 6:10-18), that I find peace. Yet I still find myself wrestling with the outcome. Have you experienced trying to go back to sleep with a … Continue reading Pick and Choose!
A Treasured Birthday!
What a whirlwind of a month this has been! October 2024 will not be quickly forgotten. Not only am I writing in my tenth year of blogging, but I achieved an age I never dreamed of reaching. Born in 1962, I turned 62 years old October 8, 2024! Early in the month, just two days … Continue reading A Treasured Birthday!
