I am forever grateful for the cross and that He came to seek and save the lost. Giving thanks to God, for His mercy endures forever. Aren’t you glad that He did not wait for us to cry out to Him, but He came looking for us? Aren’t you forever grateful for all that He does for you every day? Even the little things. I was telling one of my library patrons that God is not just good some of the time; He is good all the time. I am forever grateful about that TRUTH. I take nothing for granted. Not the air Read More

Do You Really Trust God? It’s A Heart Thing
During this season of transitioning, (graduations, relocations, broken/distancing of relationships, off to college, new jobs, etc), God is doing a work in our hearts, because it’s a heart thing with God (. Do we really trust God? We can say a lot with our lips but our hearts are far from it (Matthew 15:8, Proverbs 23:26). God will free us up from the weight that we carry but we have to continue to trust Him, to walk in love, and to speak the truth in love every time we speak. We must continually ask the Holy Spirit, to show us where Read More
Authority of the Believer: Dunamis
Authority means “the power to determine, adjudicate, or otherwise settle issues or disputes; jurisdiction; the right to control, command, or determine”. This week Hurricane Florence came ashore on the coast of North Carolina. Even though the storm has been downgraded to a tropical depression there is still a threat of severe flooding in many areas. Before the storm hit I noticed a lot of prayers on Facebook and in the media. Prayers are good. What I want to convey in this post is how as a believer you have authority in the earth to speak to your situation and expect that Read More
Survival Strategies: Listening (Get Understanding)
My number two survival strategy is listening. You can play all the music, read all the Word, and pray all the time; however, if you never stop to listen to the voice of God, you have already lost the battle. God speaks and He expects us to listen. Sometimes we are so caught up in the problem we forget to listen for the solution. We try to figure it out on our own, usually making the situation worst. I often wonder why people think God listens to our prayers, but we never consider that He also speaks to us. Conversation Read More
Survival Strategies: Worship (Supernatural Playlists)
To fight and defeat any enemy we need to have survival strategies, including supernatural playlists. I don’t know about you but the last couple of weeks have been weeks of intense battle. I sensed the fiery darts of the enemy being fired repeatedly at me during this time. Just one thing after another. Through the years I have developed survival strategies to defeat the enemy during these attacks. A lot of these attacks have to do with time management. My already full schedule is being bombarded with so much more to do and not enough time to get it all done. Read More
Focus: Game Changer or Plan Killer?
Focus can be a game changer for your busy week. However, broken focus will most likely lead to disaster. It can be a plan killer. I’ve had a very busy week and stressful week. Our Fall semester starts on Monday and I’ve been working diligently trying to get stuff ready for the incoming students. This week has also been filled with meetings and more meetings. I have been truly relying on the Holy Spirit to help me focus and to bring things to my remembrance (John 14:26). I ‘ve put my life in His care of me this week and He has Read More
