I am not a master gardener. I am not a master anything, but maybe a master screw up when left to my own devices. That is not meant to be an insult to myself as some may think. That is an observation of the years of having made epic mistakes. Without Jesus I am nothing. …

Freedom Carriers
I was on a walk and anxious feelings had been pressing in. I was talking to the Lord about it, and asking questions, as I often do. Then I heard, “Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.” I had heard this verse so many times, but God chose that day to bring …
Diamonds
Twinkling lights in darkness is what I saw several days ago in prayer. The twinkling was from light reflecting off of many, many diamonds that were in the wall of a cave. It was so dark that this sparkling was all that could be seen. As I looked at the diamonds, there was such a …
Faith and Grace
I wish my faith were perfect all the time. Unfortunately, that hasn’t been the case. When God asks us to step out in faith, sooner or later a challenge will come to that faith. In fact it is the challenges that grow our faith. So we are challenged by the initial stepping out and then …

Stop, Drop, and Roll
At times, I’ve felt that talking about a current struggle with anxiety, somehow lessens the breakthroughs and overcoming that I’ve had.

I …
Heroes of Old, Today
People often think of men and women in the bible as somehow being some kind of supernatural beings. We can think of them as being stronger, wiser, as if they just had it more together than we do. Like, a burning bush is all in a day’s journey, or cutting off a giant’s head routine. …
Thought and The Heart
“How long must I wrestle with my thoughts and day after day have sorrow in my heart? How long will my enemy triumph over me?” (Ps.12:2) I wonder what the thoughts were that David struggled with. We get from these verses that he must have been dealing with an amount of fear. He had …
Breaking
I never really liked doing smaller pieces too much, but lately I have been really enjoying it. In this little piece, I was thinking about the broken rocks and the solid mountain. A couple of years ago, while in prayer, I saw a mountain that became a jagged path. The rocks on the path were …
His Eye is on the Sparrow
When I think of God’s providence, I think of the sparrow. 29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care. 30 And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows. (Mt. …
