“So then, from now on be obedient to the Lord and stop being stubborn. The Lord your God is supreme over all gods and over all powers. He is great and mighty, and he is to be obeyed. He does not show partiality, and he does not accept bribes. He makes sure that orphans and... Continue Reading →
Stuck to unstuck
I recently attended an intimate fellowship weekend at Glorieta, NM, Saturday night was reserved for testimonies. My spiritual mentor walked our women's group through something she called Treasure Testimony many years before, and I felt like it was something that we were supposed to do for this weekend.

“It is dangerous to be concerned with what others think of you, but if you trust the Lord, you are safe.” Proverbs 29:25 Lately I have been second guessing everything I consider to be true of myself.

Big Faith
“Now that we have been put right with God through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.” Romans 5:1 It takes big faith to know that I have been made right with God.

It Is Already Happening
“But the Lord says, “Do not cling to events of the past or dwell on what happened long ago. Watch for the new thing I am going to do. It is happening already—you can see it now! I will make a road through the wilderness and give you streams of water there.” Isaiah 43:18-19 ... Continue Reading →
