The Psalms came as music from David, the man after God’s own heart. He would sing psalms in good and bad times in His life. It was an outpouring of His raw emotion. As I was reading this beloved book of the bible, I felt the Holy Spirit say, “Sing them to me”. I was…
PRINCE OF PEACE
Has God ever asked you to do something that’s far out of your comfort zone? If your answer is no then maybe you’re not listening. He has called us all, as Jesus followers to live a life of faith, that brings Him glory. Without faith it is impossible to please God, he rewards those who…
GRATEFUL REFLECTION
I just returned yesterday, from a 10-day holy land study tour in Israel. What a trip! Every believer should experience what it was like to walk where Jesus and those before us walked. Every day, our foundation, the bible came to life. You can’t help but reflect in grateful admiration, the selfless journey of our…
THIS HOLY LAND
I’m in Israel now experiencing an awesome holy land study tour. Even though this is my third trip, every experience has been so different. So far with only a few days in, there have been some unforgettable moments. Today we experienced the region of Capernaum, Sea of Galilee & Mount of Beatitudes, where Jesus performed…
SERVING WELL
Our culture is constantly urging us to stay comfortable. There’s always a new and improved phone, ways to shop from home and more gadgets to make life easier. I myself, love Amazon Prime. But we weren’t put on this earth to live out an easy, self-focused existence. The Lord really spoke to me this morning…
STRENGTH IN MEEKNESS
This word meekness has always been sort of like a dirty word to me. I’ve always perceived it as passive, insecure, timid, and quite frankly not me. You want me bold and fearless right God? But oh have things changed. In this process of pulling up roots, changing my heart, and molding me into His…
ANNIVERSARY EDITION
This week marks my one year anniversary edition co-authoring, Lens of Faith. The Holy Spirit is the Author. It’s hard to believe that it’s been an entire year sitting down every week and speaking His divine revelations. He made it clear that he would speak through me when I started out hesitant and I am…
NECESSARY WORSHIP
Do you ever imagine God like I do? When I worship, pray and study His word, He is then well pleased. And sensing His presence is evidence of His approval. Yet, the truth is he has angels praising Him 24/7 crying out, “Holy. Holy. Holy.” meaning he doesn’t need our inconsistent human worship. He doesn’t…
SPEAK LIFE
I know, I know, we are living in such a crazy day. If it’s not a terrorist attack, it’s a mass shooting or a hurricane or a flood. When it’s not a flood, it’s a devastating fire. We are being hit with one heartache after another and that’s not even mentioning the political division in…
AMERICA’S CURE
As I reflect on the latest tragedy in Las Vegas this week, my heart breaks. Unfortunately, this type of senseless violence is becoming common. Growing up, there where no signs of mass shootings, terrorist attacks and school shootings until Columbine in 1999. I remember sitting in my house so emotional and in complete shock; it…
