Today, let’s look at some of the reasons we don’t get the answers we’re hoping for. This first scripture gives us two hints. Can you find them? You jealously want what others have so you begin to see yourself as better than others. You scheme with envy and harm others to selfishly obtain what you …

Answers: Day 1
I was all set to go back to writing my blog once a week, especially with how consuming it was for me to write last week’s series on direction. Plus, I’m two days into a 21-day prayer and fasting plan for writers. I’m thinking that’s too much, I shouldn’t write this, and God is thinking …
Direction: Day 4
Only two more days to wrap this up. What treasures we are uncovering! Are you excited to see what’s next? Today we have three more scriptures chock-full of enlightening information. I’m sure you know this first one well, but let’s open our hearts and look at it with new eyes. ‘For I know the plans …
Out of Control
Out of control, that's how I'm feeling today. I'm sure I'm not the only one. I'm currently staying with my sister-in-law and brother-in-law, having evacuated due to wildfires. I'm pretty confident my house will not burn down but the air quality was beyond breathable. Even here it is heavy with smoke. My poor dog is …
What Benefit In Trouble?

This will not be a typical post. This was an amazing time in the word for me today and I just want to share it with you and issue a challenge to try this for yourself. I looked on YouTube for something to listen to while I did my Bible study. Listening to this: https://youtu.be/s-SR7Xc0yhM, …
W is for …
As I’m coming to these last letters I find I am anxious to be done. Let’s face it – the end of the alphabet is full of letters that are not all that impressive. I’ve managed to salvage Q, but what will I do tomorrow with X, and what about Z? W will be hard …
P is for …
Poetry, Poems, Posts, Praise, Prayer, Persistence, and Patience. I think this is the best letter, yet. Before I start going on and on about me; let me introduce you to my best friend, Darla Greven. She is an inspiration to me (and many others) and a great encourager. You can check out her blog at …
Possessing the Harder Faith – Intro
Wouldn't it be easy to believe in God if every time we prayed we would have immediate results? Like: “Heavenly Father, I’m short fifty bucks this week” – and Bam! - we go to the mailbox and sure enough we have a note from Aunt Chrissy, saying, “Here is fifty bucks. I just knew you …
Sometimes, No Matter…
Sometimes, no matter how hard we try, or how much we want something, things just don't work out the way we've planned! Anyone who really knows me, knows just how much I would choose the natural route when it comes to my health. I truly believe God can heal, I believe our bodies are designed …
