Think of someone who “says all the right things” but lives a very different life behind closed doors. We all know or know of someone like that. Or maybe more than one "someone's".

n other words, extra notes are added to make the music feel fuller and more beautiful. Classical music is especially known for these “grace notes.” Some might hear them and think they’re mistakes — extra notes played before the “right” one. But they are not mistakes. They are planned, perfected, and placed at just the right time.

One of the biggest reasons we miss His plan is simple: we move without prayer. Proverbs 3:5-6 urges us, “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.” But how often have we rushed into jobs, relationships,

As we were traveling back from a Youth Conference in Tennessee, I looked out my window and saw a sign posted on a tree that said, “Don’t forget Jesus.” When I saw that sign, I thought to myself how many times do I forget about Jesus. Jeremiah 2:32 says, “Can a maid forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire?

All around us is indecency, vulgarity, murder of innocent children, unrighteous living, etc. Jochebed must have faced some of the same issues that we are faced with. It is hard to imagine, but things will become even more corrupt before the Lord returns. Will we obey God, or man?

I have an old pair of walking shoes... That I REFUSE to get rid of.... Ladies, they may not be fancy, but they’ve walked through storms, climbed mountains, and made it this far. That’s the kind of faith walk I want.

These people wore masks only when specifically asked to, didn’t pay any attention to the arrows in the grocery isles, hugged their friends and family without second thought, and will only get the vaccine over their dead bodies. They watched “other” news outlets, read “other” articles, and watched “other” videos that exposed the apparent lies and mis-information the mainstream media was spreading. They were miserable being in quarantine and believed they were having their constitutional rights ripped away from them quicker than anyone could ever imagine.

Have you ever been overwhelmed? I think there are times we can all think of when life has seemed a little (or very) overwhelming. I can think of a few instances in my life where that has been the case. We’ve had hard ministry days, we’ve gone through unexpected moves

I can’t even imagine how God feels about our normal. I imagine tears in His eyes and a broken heart when I think of Him seeing how we live. Sadly, we give God so little when He has given us so much!

My prayer is that we get involved in our church's soul winning programs. If you're nervous, that's ok, just find a lady that goes regularly and ask to be their silent partner as you learn.
If your church doesn't have one,
get some tracts (I love the smiley face ones!) and hand them out when you're shopping. I have multiple friends who were saved from a gospel tract!
Now that I have 2 grown daughters and empty nest is on the horizon, I can look back at some mistakes made in building my home. I can see that sometimes there was too much rubbish in the way. Rubbish by getting angry over messes.

That 4th verse just sticks out to me so much and it is just so convincing! Until we give our ALL to God, we will never be able to see the joy that He can bestow or the favor that He shows because it is only for those who Trust and Obey Him!

There is a place that our family loves to go. It is a little island off the coast of Georgia called Blackbeard Island. It is breathtaking with its views, untouched by man. The only way you can access this island is by boat and boy is it worth it!

How much time do I take to spiritually prepare? Oh, not specifically for the day we celebrate our Saviour's birth. But how much time do I take to prepare my heart to read God's word... to go to church... to listening to Sunday school... to listening to a message from the Lord in the way of preaching... to go soul-winning? Preparing on purpose!

Of all of the reasons we hesitate to go “all in” with the Lord, I think the story of the Woman at the Well is the biggest reason. She couldn’t understand why HE as a Jew would even think about asking her as a Samaritan for water! Did He even know who she was? Of course, He did! He is Jesus.

I had been preparing for a few weeks for a Sunday School lesson for our monthly split adult class, and I just didn’t feel at peace with what I was working on. It usually takes me awhile to get it down in an organized manner. A different topic came to mind, and I had to trust the Lord to help me, but the information just poured out in a perfectly outlined format. That is very unusual for me! Not only was it very well organized, but it was also ready before I had a busy weekend visiting with family and making last-minute unexpected adjustments to my home. He knew I needed some help being ready for everything on time!
