LIFES CROSSROADS…

As I sit in my office and pray, I open my eyes and see these scriptures. These Scriptures became life verses for me over the last 5 years, and because of that I printed and framed them so I could hang them on my… Continue Reading “LIFES CROSSROADS…”

THE only reliable ROADMAP FOR LIFE…

Where I was… At the time of this journal entry our life was unravelling.  We sold our family home, in hopes of paying off all our  business suppliers.  We renovated and moved into a condo that we owned, only to have to sell that… Continue Reading “THE only reliable ROADMAP FOR LIFE…”

LORD, WHAT IS TRUTH? … Does it still exist?

The division in our world is even driving a stake between families and friends.  Thoughts and understanding  on everyday issues have become so totally polarized that its becoming increasingly difficult to have debate, discussions or disagreements anymore.  Anyone not on the same page is wrong, they are either selfish or foolish depending which camp you are part of, and should therefore not be tolerated. 

THY WILL NOT MY WILL…

As I read from my prayer journal, almost three years to the day, I have so many memories flooding through my mind.  I can read those Bible verses and be transported back to the constant fear that would wash over me…fear of the unknown…… Continue Reading “THY WILL NOT MY WILL…”

Shadow dancing With God…

 I knew instinctively that God was the answer, I just couldn’t seem to find him, at least not in the way I was seeking. Everything I did, seemed a vain attempt.. like I was always dancing with shadows. 

FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS…

As we look forward with anticipation at the coming of a New Year, we may be hopeful that all the bad is behind us, everything will start looking bright and prosperous again. But, what if it doesn’t? What if Gods plans are different than our hopes, how will we, as Children of the almighty God respond?

I don’t have a cross…Do I ?

The funny thing about surrendering, is that it’s so easy to grab those surrendered things back.  Choosing to pick up my cross has had to become a daily habit, daily surrendering the things of this life to the Lord and making the tough choices to follow Him, even when its not comfortable or easy.

For such a time as this…

Maybe, you think you have done too many wrongs… no way they could be made right.  Another lie.  God pulled me out of the pit of terrible choices.  The pit of my own making that had no ladder out… but He reached down and rescued me from myself…

Somewhere between then and there…

When I first wrote this Journal entry and prayer below, it was 2 years ago and we were facing a seemingly unsurmountable mountain.  Everything around us seemed to be disappearing, and we struggled to hold onto our hope for any type of reprieve.  All… Continue Reading “Somewhere between then and there…”

HELP LORD I’M SINKING…why does this keep happening to me?

I have to say that I am a fan of Peter, he is the disciple I most readily relate to.  He was enthusiastic and impulsive.  He loved deeply yet panicked and even failed quickly, these are reactions I see in myself.  Yet, despite all… Continue Reading “HELP LORD I’M SINKING…why does this keep happening to me?”
