Don’t be afraid to take a big step when God is leading you. Don’t be afraid to move when He tells you to move. Don’t be afraid to jump when He says to jump. These can be the greatest moments of your life. As long as you hold onto his hand and never take your…

It’s Time to Clean House
Early this morning I was reading the chapter below – 1 Corinthians 5:1-13 and I started to think about the present day church. When was the last time that you heard of someone calling out sin in church? Paul was no joke and he gave these churches no excuse to not deal with their sin….
Choose Thankfulness
Train yourself to consciously thank God when you open your eyes in the morning. He taught me this a long time ago and it helps to squash any negative thoughts that may be trying to sneak in. Thank Him for a new day. Thank Him for life because there are those who didn’t wake…
Word For Wives
Marriage isn’t easy and anyone who is married knows I’m telling the truth. I firmly believe that your marriage is what you make it and put into it. I don’t pretend to know it all or that my marriage is perfect. We have had more than our share of issues and we still do, but…
Keep Your Eyes on Him
We all will go through various trials in this life. Some will be harder than others and there will be some that are excruciatingly painful. These times can be so hard to go through but we can make it. It is tempting during these times to focus on our feelings and our circumstances. I…

Have you ever stopped and listened to the words that people speak? How about the words that you speak? The Bible says that “Death and life are in the power of the tongue.” I like the Message version – “Words kill, words give life; they’re either poison or fruit—you choose.” Proverbs 18:21 MSG. Some people…
What If You Knew That This Day Was Your Last?
How differently would you live your life if you knew that today was your last day to live? So many of us can get distracted with things that, if we really weigh them out, are not all that important. How differently would you treat those around you? Would you reach out to someone who…
What Will He Say to You?
I believe there are going to be a lot of surprises when we get to heaven one day. There is a saying that Joyce Meyer has that says, “Going to church doesn’t make you a Christian any more than standing in a garage makes you a car.” The first time I heard this…
Love Those Around You
We really never know what others around us are going through. Just because someone has a smile on their face, they may be going through hell within themselves. Don’t be so quick to judge, but be quicker to show love, give a word of encouragement or a hug. You don’t know how someone may…
