Help! This is the cry from the hearts of the masses. Help is needed and often we wonder where our help will come from. It will not come from the government (No consensus reached). It will not come from your employer (Unemployment rate of 7.9%). It will not come from any person. Help, comes from the Lord (Psalm 34:17, Psalm 121). I was going to write on another topic today, but I thought we could use a clear reality check. We are not a people forgotten (Psalm 10:12). We are not a people without hope (Hebrews 6:19). We are a Read More

God’s Goodness: Revealed in His Creation
Goodness is an attribute of God. He is Good all of the time. I have been thinking about God’s goodness and how we can see it daily as it plays out in all of creation (Romans 1:20). The sun shines on both the just and the unjust (Matthew 5:44-46). The rain falls and waters the earth. The seasons change whether we pay attention or not. The air we breathe is provided for us. The earth sits at exactly the right distance from the sun in order for us to survive. Take a look around and see all the wonders of Read More
Power to Create Wealth: Overcoming the Challenges of 2020
Power to Create Wealth. Can you believe that is already August 2020? So far 2020 has been an interesting year. There have been changes and challenges. I am making some changes as well. In fact, I am currently working from home and being very creative. Additionally, I have been updating my blog and adding some additional income streams. Look for some changes in the coming weeks. Experts recommend having seven to ten different income streams. Did you know that God gave you the Power to Create Wealth and Succeed (Deuteronomy 8:18)? This week I am providing some help for those Read More
Keeping the Faith: Born to Taste the Grapes
This week’s blog is about ‘Keeping the Faith’. In Numbers 13:25-14:10, the twelve spies come back with some very large grapes and a story to tell. Did you know, you were born to taste the grapes (awesome gifts from God)? God provided manna for His people during their 40-year journal through the desert. God does nothing without purpose. The Holy Spirit is our teacher and our guide. God provided for them in the desert because there was typically nothing else for them to eat; however, now the people must learn to trust God by working the land and sowing and 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
It Is Well With My Soul!
My thoughts today dwell on the hymn, It Is Well With My Soul. It’s my 62nd birthday. A great day to celebrate my life and all the wonderful things God has done for me. I recently completed a scripture garden in my backyard. It’s filled with plants, stones, an angel statue and a welcome garden flag. The majority of the stones in this garden have scripture printed on them. Some single scriptures like Mark 11:23-24, others are combined in groups to create the basic theme of the scripture, Galatians 5:22-23 (Fruits of the Spirit). One of the stones I created Read More
