Let’s face it, Sister, when we step out the front door, we want to feel the freedom to inhale and exhale without being held back by the criticisms and judgement of onlookers. Perhaps it’s the performance driven nature of this (slowly) recovering people pleaser. But a good number of us (please don’t let me stand […]

Lift Your Spirit ~ “GOD is in This Story” ~ Katy Nichole & Big Daddy
GOD is in your story. He is in my story. GOD is in your details. He is in my details. 9 But he said to me, “My grace is enough for you. When you are weak, my power is made perfect in you.” So I am very happy to brag about my weaknesses. Then Christ’s power can live […]
Lift Your Spirit: “To You” ~ Davy Flowers
Turning back. When do we finally realize we need to do a 180-degree turn? We go through life sometimes in auto-pilot. Not giving much thought to the things we do, the people we choose to be around, the decisions we make. Just going from day to day — almost oblivious to the impact and rippling […]
Lift Your Spirit: “Sometimes It Takes a Mountain” – Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir
GOD loves us so much that He will go to the ends of the earth to show us that His heart desires to have us in relationship with Him. And often that translates to allowing us to experience difficult seasons in life. Those mountains and deserts … those gut-wrenching, heartbreaking, tornadoes of life where we […]

Lift Your Spirit – “Keep My Eyes Up”
1 I lift up my eyes to the mountains— where does my help come from?2 My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. Psalm 121:1-2 NIV Is it just me, or are there a lot of distractions as we travel throughout our day? Digital billboards on freeways and highways. Neon lights that make the streets glow after […]
Lift Your Spirit ~ “Joy In The Morning”
Hope. Trust. Faith. Joy. Some days these things seem far away or foreign. You may have moments, days, weeks … where you question the existence of any of this. You too? In your desperation your eyes take your view up. The Lifter of your head whispers: “Take hope, Daughter. Joy is on the horizon. Hold […]
Lift Your Spirit
This is one of those worship songs that needs no introduction. All you have to do is stand to your feet and join in. The rest will naturally flow from there. It’s no secret that we choose to hold on to memories that have meaning in our lives. It really doesn’t take much recollection of […]
Lift Your Spirit: “Touch The Hem”
It’s not too often that I’m lacking for words … but there are those sacred moments when … I find myself just having to trust the Holy Spirit to ‘fill in the blanks.’ Faith takes me there. Faith empowers me to have the courage to get out of my comfort zone and go there. Faith […]
