Direction: Day 3
Oh my goodness! This week’s posts on direction are intense. Who knew how many scriptures would apply? If you think I will be able to fathom the depths of this topic in five days, you would be misguided. Even so, I hope you will gain some perspective on the subject and hopefully feel some confidence …
Direction: Day 2
Yesterday, we looked into what can happen when God has a destination, or a “promised land” in mind for us, and how our fear can cause us to wander around when it was right there at our fingertips. Today, let’s look at some scriptures that will build our trust, remembering that trust in God will …
Direction: Day 1
Have you ever prayed for direction? And having prayed, did you wonder how God would answer? Did you hope he would literally give you a sign to point you in the right direction? I am so excited this week to do something different. Together, we will take a look at how God leads us, searching …
The Story of Me (Part Two)
Last week I explored five aspects of our identity according to scripture. Here is a recap: God created me in his image. Genesis 1:26-27God knew me before I was born. Jeremiah 1:5aGod wrote a book about me. Psalm 139:1-3,16God’s works are wonderful, that includes me. Psalm 139:14God delights in me. Zephaniah 3:17 I’m still in …
The Story of Me

To allow his words to sink-in deeply. Shall we dive in? 1) GOD CREATED ME IN HIS IMAGE. I’m sure you know the scripture, but you …
Hold On To Hope
My concept of the post I was going to write was different than what I will write today. My title for this post came to me last Friday. I started looking up scripture references on hope, but I wasn’t getting the clear picture. It wasn’t until this morning when I had a Zoom call with …
Grace and Peace
I have been using Grace & Peace as my complimentary close on my blog for a while, and have used it on my emails for a long time before that. I had wanted to find something that would express more meaning than the usual closings: Sincerely, Best Regards, Love, and the Christian favorite — Yours …
Growing Weary
Today, I want to get a head start on what I know is going to happen. How do I know? Because it’s happened before. And, since my 2021 word for the year is Persevere, it’s a safe bet that at some point I will grow weary. There were three areas of my life that God …
Cherished
Recently I have been reading about life goals, purpose, and how to focus and refine smaller goals to fit the bigger picture. How to purge the distractions. I came up with my big picture life goal focus of communicating how we are cherished by God for my writing vocation, and cherishing my family and friends …
