The Purpose That Drives Within Us

I see myself as a little girl opening a large heavy wooden door. It is opening easily for me. Pure light fills the other side of the threshold.

I take a step in. I am filled with wonder and joy as I touch the air which feels like fabric of intense peace. Light slowly flows up my arm to spread to my head and to the rest of my body in completeness. I am standing brightly within His light. I relax and laugh as a squeal of delight flows from my spirit. I still sense the pain and aches in my physical body, but I choose to turn my focus again to the spiritual realm and trust Jesus. I take His hand […]

The Essence of Joy

If you want something bad enough, you will seek it out.
If you don’t want it, you will refuse to allow it in.

For the past few months I have been on a journey regarding Joy. I have to admit, I had to break through a lot of lies I have been taught and barriers in my life during this journey. I wanted to know why does a baby laugh to tears at the simplest motion. Why do animals play? Where does our humor come from? Nutshell… where was my humor, my laughter, my joy? Then this week happened and I experienced  joy during the tragedy. It is a moment that I pray I never forget. I can now say confidently, […]

What Am I Thinking About?

Sometimes it is hard to be a follower of Christ. Especially when his teachings can be hard for us to follow. Let’s take a look at a sermon Jesus gave…
Read Mark 7:1-23

Why is this teaching hard?
What is Jesus communicating here?
Am I really accountable for my thoughts?
Is it even possible to control my thoughts?

Let me share this verse with you.

Read also Psalm 7:9, Jeremiah 11:20, Jeremiah 20:12,
Rev 2:23b  And all the churches will know that I am he who searches mind and heart, and I will give to each of you according to your works.

Where Is God’s Comfort?

Last week we talked about comfort and our need to ask God for comfort. Let me review that a little bit and kind of break that down again.

When we are struggling with pain and suffering, all we really want is for it to stop. We ask God to take care of it. If nothing happens we start bartering with God, then we please and beg. Get mad. When nothing happens we will look for a sin issue, or try to work up our faith to make it stronger.

Then we start to get really upset, maybe at God, or the situation, others or even ourselves. This is when it can feel like we’ll never be okay again. We may feel like our […]
