Fearless and Frightened But Elijah Ended Strong. Part 1

📖 Please Read: 1 Kings 17 (This is post one of a three-part post.) When God Calls the Unlikely Fearless? Does that describe you? Have you ever met someone who just seemed to have no fear? Someone who walked into a room and commanded attention, who spoke with a confidence that made you think, I could never do that? If you read the opening of 1 Kings 17, Elijah might strike you that way. He…

People Confuse Me. Is That a Weird Title?

People confuse me. I’m someone who likes to figure out people. I want them to make sense. I certainly don’t mean that they can’t step outside their normal behavior — we all do. But I want their overall behavior to squarely align with their actions. When it doesn’t, I get confused. And then I feel guilty, because I feel like I’m judging them. But am I? There’s a difference between judging…

Pray These Five Powerful Psalms When Your Words Fail.

Five Psalms to Pray When You Can’t Find Words E.M. Bounds, one of the great writers on prayer, believed that prayer was not merely something we do — it is something that does something to us. He wrote that prayer is not a habit to be maintained but a force that reaches into the deepest places of the soul. He understood that the greatest barrier to prayer is often not unwillingness, but…

Here's More About Hearing The Holy Spirit

Hearing the Right Voice I wanted to add a little more about the Holy Spirit. I’ve been considering the last post I wrote and realize that I’m not very good myself at recognizing the Holy Spirit’s voice. However, I want to be. Romans 8:1 — “There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” The following statements is so important: Every believer hears two voices. One calls you…

The Psalms are a great way to express our emotions. We learn we can be honest because their authors are. We draw closer to God because of them. This post offers some ideas to use the Psalms in your daily devotional time.

Stop Waiting. Live Your Life. Live It Now!

This week, I was sitting on the phone with tech support. for a long time. That got me thinking. I thought about life in general and asked myself whether there were things in my life I was waiting on. Was I putting some things on hold? How about you? Stop waiting. Live your life. Are you “on hold” in your life? Are you waiting for a spouse to come along, hoping that the perfect partner will…

Grace In The Wilderness: A Way Through the Struggle

But what does it really feel like to struggle as a Christian? This post explores the raw, honest emotions and experiences of facing difficulties while holding onto faith.

How to confront honestly and with integrity.

I don’t know anybody who likes to confront, at least not among the people I know. But we’re all going to have to do it at some point in our lives. So, we need to learn to do so with honesty and integrity. Confrontation is not a bad thing. Honest communication handled with integrity can ensure a positive outcome. God Confronts If we need justification, we only have to look at the Bible. The Old…

What does a simple life look like for you?

Simple is different for everyone. I’m all for simplifying our lives if it makes them better. But to simplify, just so we can say we did and sound all hep and everything, is ridiculous. Besides, what looks like simple living for me is different from what it looks like for you. Compared to my “bestie” I’m practically a minimalist. Compared to my daughter, I’m a hoarder. But I do have one area…

Exaggeration is too common. But not God.

So Michigan was supposed to accumulate over a foot of snow in one day last week. Not! Oh, the weather forecasters are saying that it will still happen. I’ve lived in Michigan for a long time. And let’s just say it’s going to have to “mega” snow the rest of the day to accomplish that. Which brings me to this point. We know how the media is today. ALL of them have “Breaking news”,…

How to improve your relationship with yourself.

Your Relationship With You On the surface, it seems an odd idea that you could actually be anything other than who you really are. But from the time we can talk, we’re being programmed to “fit in”. We find ourselves conforming in order to please the people we love, and who love us. Sometimes that means that we suppress what we know is the real person inside. And yet, your relationship with…

Why the word "anyway" can be a great encouragement

Anyway can be a very encouraging word. Here’s why. I read a book a few years ago, Do It Anyway by Kent Keith, and I thought I’d share some of the precepts. “People are illogicial, unreasonable, and self-centered.” Love them anyway. “If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives.” Do it anyway. If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies. Succeed…
