Don’t Exalt Them!
God gave me a mighty big warning one day and then made ultra clear the warning was not for me alone and that I was to share it with you who are led to read this message.
“Don’t exalt [that person]. This is a warning,” the Holy Spirit spoke to my heart. I had been working on some writing about someone I love and greatly respect and appreciate. The Lord had something vital to say about my heart and manner of writing.
“Take [the person] down from the pedestal you have put [the person] on,” the Lor...
I Am a New Creature!
I am totally devoted to the Lord Jesus Christ and live and breathe to love and glorify God and to tell the world about Jesus and am called by God to be on the road full-time for Him and ministry, but I am just as human as anyone else. I am just as much in need of God’s love, mercy, forgiveness, strength, grace, patience, wisdom, correction, chastening, help, support, encouragement, and transformation as anyone else if not more so. No surprise then that I woke up one day tired from a super long w...

From Complaining to Praise
“This bed is not comfortable,” I thought after laying down in my hotel bed. Then immediately I prayed, “Thank you for this bed, oh Lord!”
How prideful, how arrogant, how self-pitying, how negative, how selfish, how unthankful, how complaining, yes, how sinful I was in that moment. For starters, the bed was perfectly fine. Not to mention I am blessed to have a bed at all when so many do not. Most importantly, God blesses me beyond measure daily in countless ways beginning with giving me a fore...
Changed by God
I was going through yet another major change and big loss when suddenly it dawned on me I was filled with love, hope, peace, joy, and excitement at moving forward in life and ministry. I cannot begin to tell you how much change and how many losses I have faced over the years, and rest assured most of the time I was overwhelmed, stressed beyond measure, discouraged, depressed, panicked, down, petrified, hurt, bitter, angry, prideful, rageful, anxious, self-pitying, negative, and complaining. Thi...

Because I Love You
“It’s because I love you I’m not giving you any more,” I told my beloved nearly 16 year old ministry doggy Abigail. She was having her breakfast when I pulled it away from her to save for later. She was having a little procedure at the doggy doctor’s in just a few hours. I needed to do what was best for her.
No sooner did I speak those words to her in my little mommy-to-doggy voice than I saw the significance they bore and knew I had a message to write. This one.
Abigail wasn’t thrilled with my ...
The New You
One day someone thanked me for my “positivity”. Rest assured by nature I have always been one of the most negative, complaining, self-centered, self-pitying people imaginable. But when we turn from our sins, believe Jesus Christ is Lord and in His death and resurrection, truly surrendering and devoting our lives to God and His ways, we are born again spiritually and become a “new creation.” God then begins His work on us as He transforms us into the men and women of God He created us to be. We a...

Don’t Give Up Now!
“You are so close now, Lara,” the Holy Spirit of God spoke to me about something God had called me to do in my ministry work. “Don’t give up now.”
Sometimes we are so very close to where the Lord is leading us to be, so very near to finishing what He has given us to do, so on the verge of completing an assignment from God, so on the cusp of getting to where God wants us to go, so on the pathway the Lord has clearly set before us in one thing or another, when all of a sudden we are tempted to giv...
Update & Prayer Request
Hi everyone, So sorry for not sending out my usual Good News Daily this past week! I have had my heart and hands busy with a number of things and thought I would give you an update.
I have been working on the ministry website & preparing it for some technology changes whereby the messages the Lord gives me to write will be able to reach a wider expanse internationally. In addition, my nearly 16-year-old special needs ministry dog Abigail got very sick last week. I have also had some medical test...
