Love is frequently mentioned in the Bible. Depending on the translation, you can find love mentioned between 200 and 600 times. That tells me that God wants us to know all about love. I am not talking about the feeling people get when they think they love someone; I am talking about the God kind of love. The love I am talking about is a verb and requires action. It’s something God commands us to do. Let us love one another () because God is love. On this day when we make an extra effort to let others know we Read More

Purpose: Five Ways to Defeat a Defeated Spirit
Today I want to teach you how to defeat a defeated spirit. I enjoy teaching about purpose and plans. So many people are stuck, lost, or simply roaming the earth without the slightest idea of why they are here. Ecclesiastes 3:11 tells us, “ He has made everything beautiful in its time. He also has planted eternity in men’s hearts and minds [a divinely implanted sense of a purpose working through the ages which nothing under the sun but God alone can satisfy].” You do not have to live with a defeated spirit.

History Has Its Eyes on You and So Does God.
History is about what happens in the NOW which later becomes the past. There is a song in the Hamilton Musical which really sums up history. It’s called History Has Its Eyes On You. Even when we think the things which we do each day are not important, history is watching and recording. The words we speak are often recorded and repeated throughout history, so be careful what you say. Our actions can cause others to be blessed or cursed, so watch what you do. Yes, history definitely has its eyes on you, but so does our loving God. I was reminded of this today in church Read More

It’s Fall, Y’all: Seasons Change
I love fall weather. Seasons change, be ready to change with them. Changing seasons remind me of God’s faithfulness to lead us out of our pain into a new season. God in His goodness gives us a picture of His love towards us in the changing of the seasons. Green leaves give way to the beautiful majestic colors of red, orange, purple, yellow, and sometimes pink. What a beautiful picture of God’s faithfulness. One of the chapters in the book (10 Life Lessons from the Book of Ruth) I am currently writing is called: Be Ready to Change With The Season Here’s Read More
