I didn’t realize until recently that a lot, and I mean A LOT, of people deal with doubting their salvation. I am not here to tell you one way or the other if you are saved. But as someone who has dealt with severe doubt, my heart is to help. God is the only one who can truly settle it, but I heard a message last night that…
Some of these first few thoughts are not my own. They were sent to me from several different preachers and I don’t know all of them to give them credit. “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the…
Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: But I…
We went on vacation to the beach last year almost a month after we had gotten “sick”. I still wasn’t myself. Anxiety, panic attacks, exhaustion, and a flare up of dizziness. We needed to get away, but there was just a heaviness over me. And I can remember one evening after we’d been at the beach, we came back to swim in the pool. No one was there;…
One year into my dizziness, a preacher/missionary with Rock of Ages came to our church to present his ministry. I was struggling to sit through services, so I had put a chair in the back of the auditorium so I could lean up against the wall. Bro. Jeff Bellamy shared how that while his wife dealt with cancer and other health issues, he had been discouraged about what…
I’ve written the backstory here but I want to add to it. 2 Kings 4:8-37; 2 Kings 8:1-6 We all know the story about Elisha and the great woman of Shunem. How she showed kindness to Elisha and in return the Lord gave her a child. How that child came in from the field and died on his mother’s knees. The peace this woman showed in telling everyone,…
If I’m being honest, I haven’t been honest in a long time. I’ve just been going through the motions. Faithful because I know I should be. Cold. Distant. Not wanting to be, but finding myself there anyway. All with a smile plastered across my face trying to be strong for everyone else. Running in circles, trying to do all the “spiritual things” and yet not really accomplishing anything…
I have written about the Scent of Healing here and I really thought about writing it in this post again. I’m afraid you won’t really go back and read it first, but I want to focus on what the Lord has been teaching me recently from something He showed me several years ago. So please promise you’ll go read it. Here it is again. So now that you’ve…
I received a message in my business page inbox from a Lisa Hammill over two years ago. I didn’t know her or anything about her church. And I reached out to a mutual friend to see if she was legit. 🙂 She had heard us sing in a Facebook video and asked me to come speak at her ladies’ meeting. It was my first one and I was…
Again, I don’t know who friended who, I just know that I started seeing Mrs. Kate’s posts and they were such a blessing to me. She shares so much truth and I love her testimony. She graciously agreed to share her “story for His glory” here. We need to hear it. We need to be reminded of it. I want to represent Jesus like Mrs. Kate does. Thank…
