My heart is full. This year has been a struggle for so many, and my heart hurts for the many who are tired, worried, exhausted, confused, hurting, fearful, and just want 2020 to be over. 2020 is indeed almost over, but I’m concerned that many people will be further disillusioned if 2021 isn’t much different. …

I’m in the middle of a series on praise and worship, and yet I’m waiting for the Holy Spirit’s permission for the next lesson. In the meantime, the Lord just enlightened me to something that I have been asking Him about for years, and I’m eager to share it! First, let’s pray. Holy Spirit, I ask …

I’ve posted a lot in the last year or two on the revelations and aspects of God’s power that He’s shown me. Wednesday night, however, He pointed out something sort of new. If you’re like me, then you’ve got loved ones who do not know Jesus. Maybe they don’t want to have anything to do …
I have so much going on inside of me that I feel like I am holding the threads of four different blog posts, on top of even more that just belongs in my journal for now. Yet, I think God just directed me through several otherwise-random clicks to a blog with a challenge–a challenge that …
It was interesting reading the comments that people shared on my last post. For those that might have missed it, I posted: A statement: It is possible for us to rest in the Lord and still be “stressed out.” True or False? And why? I realized that people were going to have different interpretations of …
The other day, I was praying about a number of issues in my life, and I felt like I was going round in circles again. I said, “Lord, I don’t want to go back to this place of confusion! The devil is the author of confusion, not You. What do I do?” I then rebuked …
