Lord, when we are “squeezed” by the actions and words of others…may Your Love pour out!!
“My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.”
(John 15:12 NIV)

Be ready for the unexpected!! And that unexpected for me this morning was receiving a call on the way to church from my Pastor (who was sick) asking for me to preach in both Services!
Pastor David, we prayed for you and I will continue to pray until you are well!! Rest and be strengthened in Jesus’ mighty name!!
Today, the Lord had me walk out the last Scripture I posted:
“Do you not know that you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in you?” 1 Corinthians 3:16 ESV
Well, if God’s Spirit dwells within me, then what have I to fear? The Holy Spirit guides me and empowers me to speak what His people (including me) need to hear.
I am thankful and humbled to be a vessel of Almighty God!!! I am thankful and humbled to be able to fill in for my pastor when he is sick and needs time to heal! I am thankful and humbled to partner with God whenever He calls and wherever He calls!!
I would say to YOU, dear Brothers & Sisters….BE READY FOR THE UNEXPECTED!!
And the way to be ready is to draw near to the Lord and to stay near. He is preparing you for what’s ahead. Are you ready?
All glory and honor to the King of kings and the Lord of lords!!!!
And as usual at my house: Thunderstorm=power going out!
I’m so thankful that when I have spiritual “storms” in my life…the POWER of the Holy Spirit never leaves or “goes out!!” We have the Power of God continuing to work in and through us even during the storms!!
WOO HOO!!

Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. Psalm 119:105
How bright is our path that we are walking in life? Are we allowing God’s Word to illuminate our thoughts and our vision and our speech?
We need to “turn on the light” by reading God’s Word every day and by inviting Him to walk our daily path with us.
God bless you in the journey!

As I sit in the Church Sanctuary waiting on Choir Practice, I am once again overwhelmed by the beauty of the reflection of the stained glass cross on the wall.
May our lives reflect the LOVE that Jesus poured out for us on the cross…


I believe what You say of me, Lord!! In You I find my worth and identity!! I believe!!!
I have doves that come to my house to feed. They peck in search of food under my bird feeders. They search out whatever food has fallen as the other birds are eating.
Today for the first time I saw two doves eating directly from the feeders!
I think they finally realized in order to get what they needed – they must go higher – directly to the source!
Yes, sometimes we get what we need from what others have learned – but, sometimes we need to go higher – directly to the Source!!!
