So now, go. I am sending you to Pharaoh to bring my people the Israelites out of Egypt.”  But Moses said to God, “Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the Israelites out of Egypt?”  And God said, “I will be with you. And this will be the sign to you that it is I who have sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you will worship God on this mountain.” (Exodus…..

“But You are holy, Enthroned in the praises of Israel.” (Psalm 22: 3 NKJV) Have you ever felt that the Lord has forsaken you? If you have, you are not alone. I have asked God the question, “God why have You abandoned me, when I need You so desperately?”   It is comforting to me that David wondered the same thing in Psalm 22:1a, and Jesus Himself asked that question in Mark 15:34. We will focus on the third verse of…..

“‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’” (Luke 10: 27 NIV) In my last post I shared a little about how living in an awakened awareness of God’s love has changed my life.  I’d like to take time again this week to look a little deeper into the effect of God’s love on me, and how I…..

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16 NIV) Have you ever thought about God’s love for you?  I mean, REALLY thought about it. Many people know that God loves them on some level, but have never given it any in-depth thought.  I guess you could say that I was one of those people in a way.  I was brought…..

“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5: 14-16 NIV) I’ve heard numerous people suggest that they will go…..

When evening came, his disciples went down to the lake, where they got into a boat and set off across the lake for Capernaum. By now it was dark, and Jesus had not yet joined them. A strong wind was blowing and the waters grew rough. When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus approaching the boat, walking on the water; and they were frightened. But he said to them, “It is I; don’t be afraid.”…..

 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. (Matthew 6:33 ESV) Do you feel that you seek God above all else?  Do you consider Him to be your ‘first love’? The word ‘seek’ is an action word.  We are to actively pursue God, His will, and His plans for our lives more than anything else. When my husband, Bruce, and I were preparing to be wed, we were like…..

The Lord confides in those who fear him; he makes his covenant known to them. My eyes are ever on the Lord, for only he will release my feet from the snare. (Psalm 25:14-15 NIV) Do you feel fearful about the future? In today’s world, media reporting is filled with stories of events that can give us grounds for fear and concern. Between natural disasters, accidental occurrences, human behaviors and inadequate living conditions, there are many things that grab our attention……

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. (Philippians 4:13 NKJV) Several weeks ago, I wrote “Healing for ALL!”  I referenced, Acts 5:16 (NIV), which says, “Crowds gathered also from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing their sick and those tormented by impure spirits, and ALL of them were healed.” (Emphasis mine) While awaiting a healing touch from the Lord, we can be so focused on that need that we miss other things He has done, and is presently…..
