Things May Not Get Better

Things May Not Get Better

“These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” John 16:33

I can picture it. I write a book called “Things May Not Get Better.” Everyone runs in the other direction. They flock to where they can hear how they can have an awesome life now. I hold a book signing. Nobody shows up. The book never sells. Everyone’s buying everyone else’s books. Of course. They w...

Dog Update from Lara

Whether or not you’re a dog lover, perhaps you can appreciate I take exceedingly seriously whomever and whatever the Lord places in my care, ever striving in all that I do to bring Him honor and glory, ever repenting daily, continually, when I fall short which I have so very often. Perhaps you can also appreciate that having been kicked out of my family as a result of talking about being sexually abused as a child, along with being abandoned by two husbands, along with losing more than imagin...

The Ultimate Commitment

The Ultimate Commitment

“So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.” Revelation 3:16

We commit to husbands. We commit to wives. We commit to boyfriends and girlfriends. We commit to jobs. We commit to political parties. And classes and universities. Appointments. Dreams. Goals. Agendas. Plans. Vacations. Cruises. Churches. Sports. Volunteering. And friendships. Hobbies, interests, and on and on. At the end of the day, we find we have committ...

Miracle with a Message for Us All

A Miracle with a Message for Us All

“And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God. And all the people saw him walking and praising God: And they knew that it was he which sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened unto him.” Acts 3:8-10

What an awesome miracle, but don’t miss a message in it like I did for so long. I was so focused on the mira...

Giving Gifts

Giving Gifts

“Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.” Acts 3:6

“And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.” John 6:11

One day I had a beautiful young woman of God coming to my house to volunteer her heart and time to help me in ministry. Her birthday was th...

Focus

Focus

“Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.” Matthew 22:37-40

Believe it or not, I am virtually clueless regarding training dogs. Despite having had up to 15 to 20 dogs at a time for almost 20 years due to being involved in animal rescue,...

“Manifold More”

Manifold More

“Then Peter said, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee. And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of God’s sake, Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and in the world to come life everlasting.” Luke 18:28-30

“But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowle...

The Rolling Prayer Closet

The Rolling Prayer Closet

“But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.” Matthew 6:6

The day I had a big breakthrough in a trial I had been facing, I knew without a shadow of a doubt ALL glory belonged to the Lord for the breakthrough. Not that my circumstances had changed mind you, for I had long since learned anyway that a true breakthrough isn’t ab...

Forsaking All

Forsaking All

“So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.” Luke 14:33

Is there anything you would not give up for God? Is there anything you are not giving up this very day and hour? True disciples of Christ are willing to forsake ALL. Not some. Not we choose what to give up. Not we pick what and whom to leave behind. All. Without exception. True followers of Jesus as Lord are willing to let go of everything and everyone He wants us to...
