Sometimes God calls us to pray hard but I have found out more often than when you are surrendered to Him, He just moves. Before we even ask, He is setting up and coming through. Those with a humble heart who acknowledge that it all comes from Him. He loves to bless and I believe…
NEW YEAR SAME GOD
Happy first week of 2019. Usually around this time we make resolutions or seek a buzz word for the new year but as I was diving into Psalm 91, I came upon fresh assurance. God keeps His promises to us no matter what season we are in and He doesn’t change with time. Let’s really…
Highlights of 2018
Hard to believe that next week starts the beginning of a new year. When I think of the meaning of new, it puts a smile on my face. It gives hope for new beginnings with new adventures and new growth. Behold, I am making everything new.” – Rev. 21:5 I’m grateful for every year because…
PRESENT ANGELS
Have you ever had an experience that was so surreal and filled you with awe I was reminded of such a miracle last week. I ran into a lady named Kim after several years, at a mutual friend’s sons 1st birthday party. As we all sat down to eat she says, “Let me tell you…

In every valley and hilltop, you can remember how He never left your side. We’ve lost friends, companions, and treasures along the way but our Lord has…
THANKFUL STILL
Happy Thanksgiving! As we end this holiday week full of food and family, I am reminded of how good God is. Not for what He has given me but rather for who He is. Things of this world, all the comforts of this life will come and go. If our thankfulness is based on the…
EVER PRESENT HELP
Arriving in California this week to the thick, smoky gray air smelling of forest fires is disheartening. It’s been one fire after another with people losing homes, towns and most importantly lives. Keep praying. The latest I heard was over 7,000 homes were lost. There are so many displaced in what should be a season…
STRONGER THAN YOU THINK
A friend calls me up last week and asks if I’m up for an adventure. All she says is we’re going on a hike. So I think, yes I need exercise and fresh air. So here we are, coffee in hand, road-tripping a couple of hours to Pilot Mountain. I’ve never been, had vaguely heard…
