We took communion at church yesterday morning. It’s not something our church does every Sunday, but it’s something we do on a pretty regular basis. I have always understood, since coming to Christ, what communion is and why we do it. The bread represents the body of Christ and the blood represents His redeeming bloodContinue reading “The Body and the Blood”

Just Do SOMETHING!
Yesterday, I was on a Website that asked visitors to list the things that are on their Christmas wishlist this year. I was just passing time as I clicked the link to check out the responses, pretty sure of what I would see: video games, clothes, electronics, etc. I was never so glad to be wrong!Continue reading “Just Do SOMETHING!”
The Ultimate Reality Show
I’m not a huge fan of reality shows, but I can’t deny their popularity in today’s culture. There is just something about them that draws us in. For some reason, watching real people deal with situaitons as they are presented to them can be quite compelling. There are often “challenges” associated with these shows—things thatContinue reading “The Ultimate Reality Show”
He Loves Us, Oh How He Loves Us
I read the 18th Psalm this morning and it felt like the words were speaking exactly what is in my heart…my feelings about the Lord. It starts off, just simply saying, “I love you, God.” *pause for reflection on the depth of that statement* Then it went into how the Lord, “my rescuing knight,” makesContinue reading “He Loves Us, Oh How He Loves Us”
Made for Something More
Have you ever just KNOWN that you were created for something more? Do you get that nagging feeling in the pit of your stomach that tells you your time is wasting and you need to get moving? But, then, do you also get that accompanying feeling of uncertainty as to what it is you’re supposedContinue reading “Made for Something More”
It Wasn’t That Long Ago…
Ephesians 2:1-11 – 1 It wasn’t so long ago that you were mired in that old stagnant life of sin. 2 You let the world, which doesn’t know the first thing about living, tell you how to live. You filled your lungs with polluted unbelief, and then exhaled disobedience. 3 We all did it, allContinue reading “It Wasn’t That Long Ago…”
El Roi – The God Who Sees Me
Over and over again, in my head, I keep hearing the words of Hagar from Genesis 16: “You are the God Who sees me!” And God does see ME. Time and again, all throughout scripture, the Lord tells us that He sees us. Job 34:21His eyes are on the ways of men; he sees theirContinue reading “El Roi – The God Who Sees Me”
Walking with the Lord
As I was praying today, I just opened up my hands to receive what the Lord had for me. I wanted not to speak so much as I wanted to listen and hear from Him. I spoke just a few simple words and then left my heart open for the Lord to move when HeContinue reading “Walking with the Lord”
Little Smiles from Little Signs
I got in my car this morning and I noticed that the little ceremic angel I have hanging from my rear view mirror was flipped over the top of the mirror. Its kind of a family joke. My son gave me this cute little angel ornament for Christmas one year; the angel is holding aContinue reading “Little Smiles from Little Signs”
"I Want It NOW!" Veruka Salt (before being dropped down the "bad egg" chute!)
I’ve been praying and believing for change. I know that where I am is just a stepping stone to where God will ultimately have me. I’ve asked God to give me wisdom and clarity and discernment concerning the issue of this change. I’ve asked God to promote me in His Kingdom and allow me toContinue reading “"I Want It NOW!"
