I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them. 1 Timothy 2:1 NLT We’ve come a long way from home delivery and waiting in line to entering the grocery stores. Like all other ‘milestones,’ we seem to be forgetful […]

Lift Your Spirit
Needed this today. Walking around in a slump and just couldn’t get out of the starting gate. Anyone else? I’ve often heard, and from the best of friends, when in a dump get up and praise. I don’t know about you, but counterintuitive seems like a soft description of how I feel about that prescription […]
Lift Your Spirit
The best conversations between friends are so satisfying … like the best thing you ever ate, it’s hard to describe … you just have to be there to experience the in moment. And some of those deep, deep conversations can last for hours. Talking to Jesus doesn’t have to be complicated or ritualistic — He […]
Thirty-Seconds Thursday
She makes you crazy with her sarcasm and snide remarks. Seemingly aloof to your constant turning away at her every judgmental comment, she persists with her negative monologue. Doesn’t she see that you’re totally turned off by her berating and condescending remarks? You can no longer tolerate the incessant hammering of words and you suddenly […]
Lift Your Spirit
There’s more up ahead … more work to do … more praying to be done … more places to go … more people to meet … so much more to learn … It’s a hard pill to swallow when your circumstances tell a different story. But if you don’t have anyone in your immediate sphere […]
Thirty-Seconds Thursday
What can you accomplish in thirty seconds? Two sets of squats? Heat up a quick snack in the microwave? Order online pizza? Take out the trash? Send an email? If you think about it, those thirty seconds are spent rather quickly. And once they’re gone, they’re GONE! I set a timer to get a ‘feel’ […]
Lift Your Spirit
8For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; 9not as a result of works, so that no one may boast. Ephesians 2:8-9 NASB Undeserved … unmerited … free … words that try to describe and define the Gift that GOD has given us through Jesus Christ. […]
Thankful Thursday
Have you ever experienced one of those moments when you’re going about your day and you suddenly come upon something extraordinary, but there’s no one around to see it? I have lots of those, do you? It’s one of those quirky, “Am I the only one seeing this?!” random occasion when you wish you had […]
Thankful Thursday
They say there are herbs and certain foods that can help increase our memory. I have to chuckle because in my attempt to do personal ‘research’ on the validity of such things, I forget to include them in my activity! But that doesn’t prevent me from the pursuit. I’m finding that I’m in that season […]
Lift Your Spirit
You work so, so hard … everyday … but your efforts are not in vain. Every little thing that is done in secret is seen by GOD Almighty. And He knows how you strive to make things just right … for everyone in your sphere … He sees how you take the time to meet […]
