Such a Time As This

Esther is not the only one to be born, raised, and reigned as Queen in the right place and at the right time “for such a time as this“. We are all right where we are right now, TODAY for a reason, a purpose, a world worth saving and a people’s prayer warrior; living a …

Be A Blessing

When we get up to see another day on earth we are immediately called to action. Just because we are blessed with the goodness and love of God, perhaps also wealth, a nice home, great horses, or even if it’s just a cozy cabin in the woods, our BLESSINGS ARE NOT TO BE HOARDED. We …

Sitting in a church bible study many years ago as a young adult, I suddenly became very uncomfortable in the discussion when the question was posed to the group, “name your greatest lesson learned from your father as a kid”.

Stumblers

I stumble, I get careless, I make mistakes, I miscalculate, I say the wrong thing in the wrong way, I sin. I recognize it (repent), I ask for forgiveness, and I accept Jesus’ mercy (un-earned by works or deeds), I change. If God was looking for perfect, holy people I would be left out. But, …

Living Faith

A lantern shines in the darkness illuminating the path immediately in front of us. Further ahead nothing can be seen for the darkness envelopes the path with a sea of black. We walk on anyway knowing that little by little we will see enough to get us where we are going even though we don’t …
