War for Glory

I just posted an entry minutes ago. I turned off the light and intended to settle my mind before drifting off to sleep. I so had hoped. I was starting to contemplate some of the the other things that I have been learning over the past few months that could be “blog worthy”. One ofContinue reading “War for Glory”

Time has gone by….

Oh my gracious! It has been a long time again – months in fact. Too long. So some explanation: -COVID laziness-Back to work after months away-A broken laptop-Distracted heart-Moving to a different home I do want to get back to sharing thoughts and stories with you that read. Good news, I have a new laptopContinue reading “Time has gone by….”

Accountabliity to God

Perhaps this isn’t any revelation to you my readers but I share anyway. ;). As noted in my recent entries I have found myself in a season of struggle with old sinful patterns of behavior. In the good moments of this season I have been trying to figure out the why. In that the HolyContinue reading “Accountabliity to God”

Suppressers of Truth

Hello again. As I was typing out the verses from Romans 1 some additional thoughts came to mind. Those very verses are full of warning, conviction and direction. Right from the get go “men in their unrighteousness suppress the truth”. What does that look like, just how do we suppress the truth? How do IContinue reading “Suppressers of Truth”

Unexpected Lesson

While I have a few other blog posts drafted to continue with some thoughts on Romans 1, I interrupt to share an interesting lesson that came my way today. Shortly after waking up I received a text from a good brother asking me if was going to attend church today. Reluctantly, I replied. Maybe. SharingContinue reading “Unexpected Lesson”

Desire Gone Mad

Okay, my title is actually a quote or phrase from Dr. Dan Allender’s reflections within the dramatic documentary called The Heart of Man. I remember it because it was a very vivid and accurate definition of lust that I connected with. It certainly describes what would often be happening in my mind when I wasContinue reading “Desire Gone Mad”

Deeper Water

Good Day! I am a fan of acoustic sound when it comes to worship music. It easily leads me and my heart and mind to introspection and in a place with Jesus that comforts my heart and soul. I have recently found this song on Spotify’s “Calming Christian” station. I am the woman at theContinue reading “Deeper Water”

“Failure won’t define Me!”

If you have been listening to Christian radio in the last few months you may have heard this song by Cory Asbury, “Father’s House”. It has become one of my favorites as it reminds listener’s of God’s truth that we are not defined by our failure or our sin but defined by God. Oh myContinue reading ““Failure won’t define Me!””

See Me?!

In recent weeks I have experienced a good healthy dose of deflation of pride. In retrospect I believe this Covid 19 business provided an opportunity for Satan to engage in his subtle trickery. With seemingly endless days of little contact with people it became quite easy to focus on self. Did I realize it atContinue reading “See Me?!”

Corporate Worship

Good Summer day to you! It has been a super long time since posting here. I do intend on getting back to it! If you have read some of my previous posts you may recall a few entries on the value of being part of a church family and connecting with other believers – thisContinue reading “Corporate Worship”
