Do You REALLY Love God?

 When a beautiful young woman told me how she has loved the Lord for a very long time,  I was reminded of how for years I walked around telling people I believed in and loved the Lord. Now I most assuredly loved the Lord emotionally, but in truth I came to find out I didn’t REALLY love the Lord. I didn’t love God the way His followers are commanded to love Him. The Lord’s number one commandment is to love Him with all our hearts, souls, minds, and strength.

The Lord makes abundantly clear in the...

The Enemy’s Lies

The Enemy’s Lies

“Do not believe the lie of the enemy that you cannot do what I have called you to do,” the Holy Spirit who lives inside Christ’s followers spoke to my heart.

Just what I needed to hear. I had fallen once again into the devil’s trap by believing his lie that I would probably not be able to do something really big the Lord has called me to do in my ministry work. Now it’s one thing when the Lord makes clear HE doesn’t want us to do something we think we should do in loving and se...

My Ministry Dogs…

Good News Ministry’s streets, beach, & hotel ministry dogs. Paralyzed Miss Mercy hit by probably a truck, 15-year-old special needs Abigail, and Gracie hit by 2 cars on the same day after being dumped at a gas station. Three of the Lord’s blessings in my life & used countless times in my journey on the road for Jesus to open people’s hearts whereby I get to talk to them about Jesus, pray for them, minister to them, love & encourage them, and/or give them my Finding the Light Gospel tract. Missin...

Choosing Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving isn’t merely an American holiday. It is supposed to be a way of life for all of humanity whereby we turn from our sins, believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and in His death on the cross to pay our sin penalty and in His resurrection, turn to the Lord and His ways, and receive the promise the Lord’s forgiveness and everlasting life with Him. What is fundamental to believing in and following the Lord? Loving Him, praising Him, worshiping Him, honoring Him, obeying Him, serving Him, and be...

When Life is Hard…

Life isn’t always easy, and sometimes it’s really hard. But there is nothing more beautiful and wonderful in the universe than THE LORD JESUS CHRIST and the promise of a forever relationship with Him which comes through turning from our sins, believing in Him as Lord and in His death on the cross to pay our sin penalty and His resurrection whereby we truly genuinely sincerely turn our hearts and lives over to the Lord & His ways.


No matter our trials, in JESUS and in a PERSONAL FOREVER RELATI...

My Birthday Blessing

Dear friend,

You may have read recently in my Good News Daily that I unexpectedly lost my beloved long-time paralyzed ministry dog Mr. Simeon and that I described myself as totally heartbroken and crushed and faced other struggles as well. Years ago, a sister in the Lord wisely told me God could use my brokenness. I praise the Lord that even as I continue on in a hard season of my life for multiple reasons, that He indeed is using my brokenness. I praise the Lord that I have never been closer to...

The JOYFUL Baby Squirrel Story

Dear friend,

When a friend asked me yesterday if I would write a message about a baby squirrel that landed in her wildlife rescue organization, I responded quickly in the flesh with the intention of justifying why of course there was no way I would feature her new little rescue squirrel in my writing. After all, this ministry is all about the Lord Jesus Christ. And, even where my handicapped ministry dogs are concerned, it’s all about the Lord and telling the world about Him. Thankfully, the Lor...
