Journal Entries have often times included lover letters to God. These are personal conversations with and prayers to the Father in Heaven.
How do you start your day? Mine starts with a prayer before I get out of bed, then a cup of coffee as I talk to Jesus, journal, and read whatever scripture Holy takes me to. Sometimes, it’s really short, but most of the time, I want to spend hours with Him in His Word. …
How many times a day do you pray to cancel, destroy, remove curses, or slander in Jesus’ name? The enemy is working overtime to shred our Christian name and credibility. It is never blatant like we imagine it to be. It’s all in the little details of life. Today is the day for you to …
Is there anything standing between you and God? Until you resolve it with God, it will keep you separated from Holy. Trying harder won’t help. You will still feel a distance, a certain disconnect, or a lull with God even though you seek worship, sing praises, and pray diligently. There was a time in my …
I am always thankful that God’s way prevails over my way. I would venture to say that I do not realize that in the moment, though. It is when I reflect on how things turned out in every season of my life that I truly see how God’s ways, plans, provisions, and protections are so …

Esther was born into the time and place that God ordained. He knew she would grow into being instrumental in saving the people in that space of time in history. It was a choice she made to stay close to God and forfeit saving just herself by running away. The woman who met Jesus at …
How many times do we encounter a person or situation and get the nudging from within to share our story, tell how Jesus saves, and/or about the goodness of God, but don’t follow through? What holds us back? The world’s opinions? Holy Spirit will always speak to us in our spirit with the right way …
When we look back over the joys, sorrows, and hardships of life, one lesson we learn is that God carries us through it all. Holy does it over and over because he cares and loves us. That love translates to everything. Even in our unwillingness to listen, failures, turning away from, or not spending time …
A heart of faith will allow God to intervene in our day to day lives. It is continually inviting Holy into decision, rant, joy, and sorrow. This is where miracles begin.
