God put Eternity in our hearts. This week I am facilitating a Stepping Stone Workshop as an Earth Day Event at our Library. We will be recycling old jewelry and other items to use on concrete stepping stones. As I was getting ready for this workshop and collecting all the items I needed, came up in my spirit. This verse states, “I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.” God took the time to put every piece needed inside of us to complete the work He has for us. Furthermore, declares, “Before Read More

D-Words: Discouragement
The third and final D-Word in this series is Discouragement. Discouragement may greet you when you rise in the morning or when you lay down to sleep for the night. Yet, there is a cure for this Dream Killer. It’s called the Word of God. Let’s take a look at the life of the Apostle Paul. Paul had many reasons to be discouraged. In , Paul tells us, “Five times I received at the hands of the Jews the forty lashes less one. Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I was stoned. Three times I was shipwrecked; a Read More
D-Words: Delays
Last week we learned our first D-Word, Doubts. Our second D-Word is Delays. Unfortunately, delays happen. Our focus scripture is – “But those who wait for the Lord [who expect, look for, and hope in Him] shall change and renew their strength and power; they shall lift their wings and mount up [close to God] as eagles [mount up to the sun]; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint or become tired.” (AMP) Even when you have done everything right, delays happen. We often think that delays in our spiritual life are from the Read More
Your Piece of the Planet – Part 2
This week I will be sharing the second part of Your Piece of the Planet. When God sent the spies to go and prepare to take possession of their piece of the planet He gave them very simple and specific instructions. Step 1: , “Send some men to explore the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the Israelites. From each ancestral tribe send one of its leaders.” Have you taken the time to go and explore your piece of the planet? Some of you are probably asking, “How am I suppose to make that happen?” There are a number Read More
Your Piece of the Planet
Your Piece of the Planet is a message God gave me about 12 years ago. For the next two weeks, I will share with you excerpts from this message. Everyone is called to have a piece of this planet. Your piece may not be a nation or a continent; it may be a building, street, or corner of a sidewalk. However, it’s your piece of the planet. When God spoke the worlds into being () He was calling forth your destiny. When He laid the foundations, He saw you ministering (serving) on your piece of the planet. Before the foundations Read More
Healing: Yesterday, Today, and Forever
Healing is very prevalent in the New Testament. Some believe that the gift of healing no longer applies to the church of today; it ended with the last of the Apostles. Let me tell you, healing is not only for today, but forever. We can count on it. One of the names of God is Jehovah Rapha (God my healer). Rapha means to heal (both figurative and literal healing), to make whole, to restore to normal (restore health), to cure, to repair. Rophe (one who heals) is the Hebrew word used of physicians in ; ; ; and . Rapha in verb form means quite Read More
