Learning can be a difficult task especially if you are trying to learn something which you are not particularly fond of. I was recently tasked with a new job (additional responsibility). This responsibility has to do with accounts payable and it is not something I ever wanted to do or felt that I would be good at. But I have learned, that I can do it if I am diligent. Learning is defined as, “the acquisition of knowledge or skills through experience, study, or by being taught”. I have always considered myself to be a life-long learner. I love education and the Read More

Forever Grateful: Created to Praise Him
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
Self-doubts and Other Lies
Listen. What are you hearing? Lies, self-doubts, whispers from the enemy? I want to offer some encouragement to those of you who are having doubts about your calling. This has been a rough year for a lot of people. Jobs have been lost, loved ones have died, bills are piling up and God seems to be helping everyone, except you. Maybe things are not going as well as you would like or have hoped. Maybe the enemy is constantly whispering in your ears that you are worthless, a nobody who is doomed to fail. Well, I have good news for Read More
Part 2 – Supernatural Provision: Choices
Supernatural provision, Part 1, defined lean times as an absence of food, finances, etc. In other words, not enough. In those times, we must consider the choices we make. Part 2 reveals how you can still receive supernatural provision in the worst of times by studying the life of Joseph (Genesis 37-50). Joseph was sold into slavery by his brothers and taken to Egypt. When we study his reaction to all of this and the choices he made, we find a young man who refused to allow his circumstances to dictate how he lived his life. He stayed true to his Read More
Part 1 – Supernatural Provision: Trust God in the Lean Times
We have to learn to TRUST God in times of famine and times of plenty. Lean times are defined as a time when there is not enough. A time when there are shortages of food and finances. Supernatural provision is not the norm for most people; however, it is very possible. So when does God provide for you supernaturally? Is it when you have a need? Is it when you spend hours crying and complaining about what you do not have? No. God responds to FAITH, not need. Take a look at Exodus 16. God sent manna from heaven each day Read More
Healing: It’s Part of Our Divine Covenant
Healing is part of our covenant with God. We were healed by His stripes. Notice the ‘were’; it’s already done. From the Old Testament and throughout the New Testament God continually reveals to us His plan for us to be whole. I have a few friends who are in need of healing and I pray for them daily. Some of them know they are already healed, others need a reminder of what Jesus did for us on the cross. God’s plan of Salvation: Sozo means to save, to deliver or protect (literally or figuratively):—heal, preserve, save (self), do well, be (make) whole. God Read More
