That’s Enough!
“Come to me, Marcie.”
“I want to Lord.”
“But?”
“But I don’t have a proper place to do it.”
“Just give me the place that you have.”
“It’s not that easy, Lord.”
“Why not?”
“I have to clean off the table. I don’t have time and this thing I call a desk just isn’t big enough to hold both Bible and notebook…”
“Just give me the space that you have. I’ll take it from there.”
Unseen Faith
Six weeks to go. Just six weeks.
I couldn’t do it. Ready to quit, I turned off my computer, shut my books, closed my notebooks, and pushed my pencil out of the way.
Nope. Not happening. I was done.
Putting my head down, I thought about the next few months and years. And a question popped into my mind, “If you quit now, how will feel in six months? If you quit now, how will you feel a year from now?”
Love One Another
“I love daisies. … They’re so friendly. Don’t you think daisies are the friendliest flower?”
A quick little poem as a reminder to spread God’s love to others. Stay the course, keep your faith, and above all, love others.
I Give Up
I admit it. Sometimes I strive to do everything on my own. And at some point, I am so depleted and ready to give up, that’s what I do. I give up.
But giving up isn’t always the bad idea it is usually made out to be. Giving up can actually be a good thing. Especially if we’re giving it up, to let God take the lead.
Where Can I Flee?
I’m so thankful that nothing, absolutely nothing, can separate me from God. Not even myself. No matter where we go—in distance, height, width, or depth—God is with us. He knows where we are and knows how to find us. Even when we are at our lowest, God will never leave us nor forsake us.
Sitting in the corner
curled up into a ball
invisible to everyone
but the One who created all.
Scribbled Beginnings and Endings
Some days we color a pretty picture all nice and neat. Other days turn into scribbles, all unruly outside of the lines.
And you know what? That’s okay. The question is, do we include God in the messiness of our lives as much as we do the colorful days?
When There’s Just No Words
Watching the news, I just have no words for the images flashing across the screen of a country being torn apart. I am horrified by what I see. What do I do with the feelings and emotions coursing through me? Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, admitted he didn’t know what to do either when an army came against him, except to focus his eyes on God. And so, as I watch, I pray. Would you pray with me?
A Bouquet of Love Just for You
He tends his flock like a shepherd: He gathers the lambs in his arms
and carries them close to his heart; He gently leads those that have young. Isaiah 40:11
How wonderful are the gifts God gives us. Springtime. New growth. Flowers and grass and trees. And I love how holds us with an everlasting love, like a new-born lamb.
Good Ol’ Job
Sometimes we’re so intent on finding the forest, we miss the trees. We are so consumed with our despair or circumstances, we miss what God is doing in that moment.
But, how DO we see what He is doing? Where do we look? What do we do?
