Tell Me Something Good

I have a friend that one way she has lifted me up when things were tough (on her side OR mine) she always says "Tell me something good."  I love it! If you are struggling with negativity or because the way things are going now it's hard to focus on what is "good"...it makes you think.  Don't live on the past good thngs, what is good RIGHT NOW??? So...."Tell me something good."

The Light At The End Of The Tunnel

T hrough a season of heartache, mistakes, transition, and loss it has been more than difficult to focus on the Kingdom. When I prayed at the beginning of the year for what God had for me to do this year He gave me Matthew 6:33. Matthew 6:33 Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need. I was supposed to focus on the Kingdom. It has been difficult with all the distractions, but I know it was exactly because of those distractions and road blocks that God made sure I was trying to focus on the Kingdom. It has been next to impossible to focus, but His word has been a constant reminder. A reminder that I'm not walking alone, but He is here with me. I lost my best friend of 20 years July 10th. It's been less than three weeks. My heart is more than broken, if that is even possible. Teri was strong, but compassionate. Straight forward and honest. If she loved you, she loved you with all she was and no one ...

His Grace is Enough

So a friend of mine and I were talking one day as we ran into each other at the store.  She was a little upset about some recent events in her home.  During the course of our conversation....somehow it strangely came around to God's grace.  She admitted to me that she really didn't understand what that meant exactly.  I had to admit at one time as a  new Christian I also really understand what His "grace" was either.  I told her what I knew to let her digest that, but told her I would email her some information after I did some study.  I found this short couple of statements via http://www.acts17-11.com/mercy.html. Mercy--not getting what you do deserve / withheld punishment Grace--getting what you don't deserve / unmerited favor Ephesians 2:4-10 4  But God is so rich in mercy, and he loved us so much, 5  that even though we were dead because of our sins, he gave us life when he raised Christ from the dead. (It is only by God’s gra...

The Journey of Paul

I have been reading a lot about the life of Paul this week. Wow...what a man that loved the Lord.  So much can be taken from his story.  That no matter what we have done in our life, we have a forgiving God that not only forgave, but USED Paul MIGHTILY!  So exciting to know that we too can be used MIGHTILY! I'm also struck by the fact that no matter what Paul KNEW was ahead of him, he pressed forward for the cause of Christ.  He wasn't ashamed!  I want to be a modern day Paul.  A world changer. How about you?
