I treasure this Christmas decoration for three main reasons: Here are some of the scriptures that each of these names was taken from. Vine: John 15: 1 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. Light: John 8: 12 “When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the lightContinue reading “Christmas Decorations”

Gentleness and Respect
Have a wonderful Monday, my friends, and remember to treat others with gentleness and respect. It’s easy to read a scripture and nod our heads and agree with it, right? With all the arguments and disagreeing happening, I’m thinking perhaps we all need to work on treating others with gentleness and respect. It’s a totallyContinue reading “Gentleness and Respect”
The Supremacy of the Son of God
Autumn is my favorite season. The glory of the changing leaves amazes me. The bright red, yellow, orange, pink, and rust of the changing leaves is a glory to see. Walking along nature’s paths, I hear the soft crunching of the leaves beneath my feet. Each step cushioned from the hardened earth. After a hot,Continue reading “The Supremacy of the Son of God”
Living and Holy Sacrifice
This is a most interesting verse, don’t you think? For Paul, I suppose this may have referred to the ways he was treated in order to preach the word of God. He was beaten repeatedly and imprisoned for his beliefs. Most of us don’t have to worry about that type of “living and holy sacrifice.”Continue reading “Living and Holy Sacrifice”
Trust in the Lord

Their faces turned hard as the stones they longed to throw. After all, that was God’s law. But the man whoContinue reading “Dropping the Stones”
New Beginnings
Happy Monday! It’s the start of a new week, a chance to begin again, to have a better week than the week before. Fortunately, our Savior gives us that opportunity too, every minute of every day. “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify usContinue reading “New Beginnings”
Through the Psalms, 28
Psalm 28: 1-2 “To you, Lord, I call; you are my Rock, do not turn a deaf ear to me. For if you remain silent, I will be like those who go down to the pit. Hear my cry for mercy as I call to you for help., as I lift up my hands towardContinue reading “Through the Psalms, 28”
He Bears Our Burdens
So I’m a wee bit (well a whole lot) late today. Even so, I hope y’all are having a great day. Here’s a scripture to help you keep your focus on your maker. Thank you, Father, for carrying our burdens and giving us grace.
Hope in My Savior
An encouraging verse for a beautiful new day. These encouraging words, and yet the soul does become downcast. Lord, keep my hope in you always.
