One of the reasons I love reading God’s word and sharing that with you is that there are living examples of lives lived and choices made. They may have lived millennia ago but the testament of their lives lives on. In 1 Samuel 31 we come to the end of this first book of Samuel…

Have you ever wondered how David could write The Lord is my Shepherd? I love this New Life Translation: The Lord is my shepherd; I have all that I need. He lets me rest in green meadows; he leads me beside peaceful streams. He renews my strength. He guides me along right paths, bringing honor…

This morning in prayer with God, He was showing me that all of the memories of much loved family loving me generously was Him. All of the delight I experienced in the child wonder of seeing butterflies and flowers, of eating favorite foods made by grandmothers who loved deeply, of laying on a hill and…

Now while he was in Jerusalem at the Passover Festival, many people saw the signs he was performing and believed in his name. But Jesus would not entrust himself to them, for he knew all people. He did not need any testimony about mankind, for he knew what was in each person. John 2:23-25. I…

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you and watch over you. Psalm 32:8. Can we see the big picture and not just our own narrow interests? As we learn to trust God for everything, our world expands because He is here with us daily. What…

What happens when we allow God to lead us? He loves us. One of the first things you will discover in your walk with God helping you is how much He loves you and His love will give you peace that can only be with Him. With His help we begin to love and understand…
