Is This What He Felt?
When people told Him that they loved God(ie Jesus himself) and yet they mocked, lied, slandered and beat Him….I wonder how He felt. Did he feel the fleshy side of an unimaginable ache in His heart, shock at the cowardice of claimed followers and fear for their eternal life? While at the same time knowing… Continue reading Is This What He Felt?

Was He Comfortable?
Ladies keep telling me, “I’m not comfortable in long dresses like that. They get in the way. I would be so hot with my hair covered like that. I get a headache if my hair is pulled back.

In addition to the aches and pains of pregnancy, my heart aches in a way I never imagined possible. I want to share what God is doing with… Continue reading Are we doing the right thing?
Meek and Quiet
“But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.” 1 Peter 3:4 God’s word is clear that our words have power. Proverbs 18:21 even tells us that “death and… Continue reading Meek and Quiet
Easy Grace
“Raise your hand if you want to be saved…” “Repeat after me…” “Welcome to the Body of Christ…” Does this sound familiar? Is this what your church promotes? Is this what God’s holy word promotes?
