    Have you ever found yourself surrounded by a powerful enemy army? No matter which step you take, he is there to snatch you up. Recently, I had been in this battle where I felt so handicapped by fear that I didn’t want to step out of the house or online. I was believing the enemy’s…

    Sometimes our circumstances can cause anxiety, but what I’m here to remind you is that despite the outward situation, our good and loving Father will always bring something better out of the ruins that gives all glory back to God for something so marvelous.

  • Raising Up A Child

    Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. Matthew 7:7-8, Luke 11:9-10 We can be quick to credit an open door of opportunity as…

    Answering The Call

    It struck me in the middle of a citywide meeting in a fancy schmancy restaurant: ‘Ask for the leftovers.’ That’s tacky… I can’t ask. The meeting ended, and I walked out the door, only to see waiters had already boxed up leftovers and set them out for the taking. Okay. I’ll grab a couple. ‘Grab three.’ I…
