At a Christmas gathering someone asked me if I thought that the Pastor’s speaking ability was what would lead me to go to a given church. My response was that it matters not where you sit on Sunday but rather where you sit daily. A personal relationship with Jesus Christ is what should lead you. Sitting at His feet daily and choosing to let Him lead you is the key. Then, wherever you may go on Sunday Christ is with you and in that place.
Of course a Spirit lead church leadership is critical, especially in these times. A solid

Do you ever find yourself in a situation that leads you to spiral down a negative path in your mind? Do your thoughts swirl so swiftly that you can relate to the term, “head spinning?” You may even find yourself directing all your undesirable energy toward a person whom you feel to be responsible for the situation or irresponsible in their part in it. Often, this can lead to full blown anxiety.
Does any of this sound familiar? I know that I can quite easily go down a path of rumination at such a rapid pace that I am not

Are you angry about something from the past? Are you angry about the way negativity in the world is escalating every day? Do you read and or watch negative things? Are you edgy and at unrest in your spirit?
Such a large percentage of what may be disquieting, you actually have no control over. Learning to step away and release such things is imperative in this season. One such area is the news. Do you follow the news closely? Most of it is negative. So guess what? What is going into your mind and spirit and heart (for it is

Do you ever feel you will never see the light of day? Circumstances can readily overwhelm even the strongest among us. Never lose hope for the dawn will come. Things will shift.
Stay ever close in your relationship with the Lord. Consistently pray a mighty hedge of protection around yourself, your loved ones and your relationship with God. Consistently put on the whole armor of God, praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit for others. Plead the blood of Jesus over all you

Do not step into battles you are not meant to fight. For in so doing you can be taken out if wounded in those superfluous battles. Choose wisely before you engage. There are some battles you are called to but certainly not every single skirmish that presents itself.
Walk away from all disruptive spirits and situations to which you are not called. For with each such encounter you lose a piece of yourself. Your joy and peace are chipped away. Your heart corrodes (for it is always a heart issue) while doing little to theirs for that is where they

Walk Through Advent
With Peace, Hope, Joy and Love!
This week marks the beginning of the Advent season. Derived from the Latin word adventus which means coming, the next weeks are spent in anticipation of commemoration of the birth of the Messiah. As Christians we also wait for the second coming of Jesus Christ to earth.
As I was writing this morning my iPad began to play Could We Start Again, Please from the 20th Anniversary London Cast Recording of Jesus Christ Superstar. This has never happened before in the countless hours I have spent online. As I … Read the rest
God Bless Our Veterans on Veteran’s Day and Always!
Let Us Support Our Veterans
Every Day!
Tomorrow we celebrate Veteran’s Day in the United States of America. This day is set aside to honor those who have served and continue to serve in our Armed Forces to keep us free. The freedoms that we currently enjoy on a daily basis are ours because of their sacrifices. Some have paid the ultimate sacrifice of their life, others have lost limbs and still others have scars not readily visible.
The war has not ended for countless men and women who have returned home with daily trials we cannot begin to imagine … Read the rest
When Storm Clouds Loom in Life
The Power of the Lord Breaks
Every Stronghold!
Today marks the official beginning of the autumn season. Autumn signifies the end of summer. It marks conclusion with an eye toward winter when much seemingly lies dormant. It is a time of turning inward. Crops are harvested and brought in for consuming and storing for sustenance in the months ahead. This is also a time of gathering storm clouds and fall weather threats. We have been witnessing the ravaging floods in Colorado and other natural devastation brought on by changing weather patterns.
Can You See the Clouds?
There are clouds of … Read the rest
