Aligned with God
I thought about this post yesterday when driving to pick my daughter up from work. Gratitude and appreciation fill my heart today as God continues to prove His faithfulness and love. Writing is a passion of mine and He has opened the door. Of course, it is His gift to me. The Word of God…

Balancing Act
This week has been a balancing act. Completing homework assignments; working part time in retail; making sure that I pick up my younger daughter from school and take her to school; certainly make sure I have babysitting arrangements for the time I have her when I’m at work; accepting a new writing assignment; taking my…

Letting the Creative Juices Flow…
As I write this post, I am currently challenged in my school assignment to draw an aerial perspective painting. Now since I love the graphic design field, and thought gaining some training on how to open up that creative flow would be the way to go, I am now at an impasse. I understand the…

Creativity – Our New Culture
Today’s post is about creativity. What does that mean? Is it different from individuality? In today’s culture, creativity seems to be the standard for traditional as well as non-traditional jobs. While watching a TV reality show for hair designers, it seems that things have gone to the extreme. What used to be a standard of…

Time for Change
As I write today, and it has been a while since I added a post, I realize that change is imperative. I look forward to that and yet, have some anxiety. I am challenged today because for so many years I was trained to maintain the box. Get myself trained, get a job, keep a…

God’s Masterpiece
I want to speak about being God’s masterpiece today. In our sermon from last night’s church service, I was blessed by the reminder that we are the masterpiece of God. Each of us have the opportunity to allow God to mold us in such a way that we would be a work that would testify…

Exalting the Lord
This devotion was spent pondering the word exalt. The definition includes to glorify; to praise; to elevate in rank,honor, power, character, and quality. I looked into elevate, meaning to raise up; which is archaic or rare. I want to use that definition today. We need to raise up the Lord. I realize that the Lord…

Faith that Grows
Devotion – John 4:46-54 (NLT) Faith is a gift that grows as we use it. How do we recognize if we are walking in faith? We say we believe, but our actions of anxiety do not portray the faith we say we have. (Phil. 4:6 – “Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell…

Grace
Today as I read passages for my devotional, this word jumped out at me, grace. I have been reading from the Amplified Bible and really enjoy it. Why? Because the definitions or meaning of the words are right there for your thought process. I really like the definition of grace. The passage of Scripture is…

Mercy, Kindness, and Truth
My Devotional today was from Proverbs 3:1-35. Reading from the Amplified Bible, there were several Scriptures that stood out for me. The one I’ll elaborate on is Proverbs 3:3 – “Let not mercy and kindness (shutting out all hatred and selfishness) and truth (shutting out all deliberate hypocrisy or falsehood) forsake you; bind them about…

Change in 2010
I am up early. Need to go to bed. However, I am thinking about change for my family. My son has mental illness and sometimes it is hard when he hurts and I cannot help. I am going to the hospital later on this morning to see him. He sounds really good but I hope…

Life and Death
Proverbs 18:21 – “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.” I believe what the Word says. We are in covenant relationship with God by and through the blood of Jesus Christ. I believe that in this covenant we have so many blessings that…

The Great Shepherd
Psalm 23:1 – “The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want.” As I read this Psalm, I was led into deep thought on just verse 1. The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want.” Jesus is The Great Shepherd. He leads us daily through our heart issues, circumstances, providing our needs so that…
