The reality is - we've got it. God's undivided attention. Every minute of every day. Amazing, isn't it? The creator of the universe is focused totally on you, right this minute. And every minute. He is always here, and you have His undivided attention at all times. The problem comes because we are not always … Continue reading Would You Like God’s Undivided Attention?

Remember What God Has Done
God has done amazing things, right? If I ask you to list all of them, you wouldn't be able to fit them into a notebook. If you really stop to think, you will know He has done too many things to name. I am sure some things are written on your heart in such a … Continue reading Remember What God Has Done
God Is Everything
The past two years have been painful. An ongoing sea of grief, trauma, and loss. In recent weeks, I began to feel raw, worn to the bone. In a word: done. Grieving takes time. So does recovery, and restoration. But one thing I realized: I was not done with God. And I know He was … Continue reading God Is Everything
Why It Is Vital to Hold Still
Have you ever tried to keep a puppy quiet when he was awake and ready for action? Impossible, isn't it? Sometimes I think that's how we must appear to God. When we set out to live a life of prayer, walking and talking with God, there are times we absolutely must hold still. In Psalm … Continue reading Why It Is Vital to Hold Still
Back in Kindergarten, with God
Walking with God is a lot like being in kindergarten. Do you remember kindergarten? Amazingly, I do. Not every minute of every day. But overall, I still remember the feeling. There were so many cool and fun things there. Lots of discoveries to be made. You would show up each day, after someone helped you … Continue reading Back in Kindergarten, with God
Can’t Out-Give God
I want to share what God is teaching me about giving. Hopefully you know my heart in why I'm sharing this - it has nothing to do with me, it has to do only with GOD, and how awesome He is.. Last week God prompted me to make a donation for His purposes. I myself … Continue reading Can’t Out-Give God
God’s Always Been There
I discovered something new on Google tonight, which is why I'm up way past my bedtime. (Good thing it's a Saturday morning.) I found that I could plug in the address of my childhood home in Miami and see it in 3-D - rotate, "drive" down the street, visit the park where I got beat … Continue reading God’s Always Been There
Amazing
It amazes me to realize Friday, February 6, 2004 I was sitting in a hotel room in St. Petersburg, Florida - a room I couldn't pay for, because someone I had trusted with my heart and my life had stolen everything. I mean everything. I had arrived that day for a conference, never knowing my … Continue reading Amazing
Please Send Me Grace
Recently, I chaperoned a youth mission trip, where we served at different ministry sites around our host city. About two days into the trip, we were to visit a children's recreation center. I woke up feeling awful. I don’t know why, but my emotions were stirred up. I was afraid I’d snap at someone without … Continue reading Please Send Me Grace
Goodbye, Mr. Fear (I Will Not Miss You)
For my writing class, I was asked to write a raw, uncensored, unedited rant of the thing that broils my insides the most. That would be the critter who tried to get at me last night. The "divorce papers" have been filed with Jesus. Enjoy reading! Attention Fear: I’ve got some things to say to you. I’m sick … Continue reading Goodbye, Mr. Fear (I Will Not Miss You)
