Update Following My Attack

Hi everyone,

I am still in awe of how the Lord saved my life on Saturday and protected my body from any serious harm when I was violently physically attacked in New York City as I was out doing my ministry work. You can read what happened at http://goodnews.love/i-was-attacked-in-nyc-amazing-testimony/

I praise God the physical aftereffects were shockingly minimal. Emotionally I am in a bit of a struggle but I have full faith the Lord will lead me and comfort me and heal me and that He will use...

I Was Attacked in NYC – Amazing Testimony

Only by God’s grace I am here to tell you this story. Today I was physically assaulted in New York City, and I have an amazing testimony to tell you.

This very morning I was reading in the Bible about God’s protection not realizing what would happen. I was right by a park with a lot going on including preparation for a pro-abortion rally, a farmers market, artists selling stuff, people practicing false religions with tables set up, homeless people, and on and on. I was just across the street sta...

Don’t Try to Fix It By Yourself

Sometimes I feel really overloaded, overwhelmed even, with a bunch of issues that desperately need fixing. Well, addressing anyway. And my first instinct, which is what I acted upon for years – usually very quickly – was to jump in and try to fix everything. And everyone mind you.

Even as I write this, I have various issues that need to be taken care of. Even more challenging is they have to do with people not doing their job, not doing their job well, not being helpful, being mean even, and irr...

Wait Until You Are Clear

“I am going to wait until I’m clear!” I thought.

For days I had been thinking about doing something I felt was the Lord’s will. But then I would waver. Truth is I wasn’t totally clear. May have been God leading me. Could have been the devil tempting me and trying to distract me. Or even my flesh doing its usual wandering in one direction then another not staying focused like I need to be.

I have a long history of acting impulsively. Including hurrying forward to do something I convinced myself w...

I Want to Be a Firefly

My Mom said long ago that I have a wild imagination. I suppose that goes with being a creative, passionate, emotional person who is gifted with writing. I have ideas, and thoughts, that don’t always fit neatly and cleanly into the world around me. Which is how I suppose at around 4 am after spending a bit of time with the Lord including studying the Bible that as I tried to fall back asleep this thought came to me. I want to be a firefly. Sometimes my wildest ideas – and messages – come when I l...

I Have Good News! – Video Devotional

Please help me share this GOOD NEWS with others!

God’s Hands Are NOT Full

“I place this in your hands,” I essentially prayed to God as I found myself worrying about paralyzed ministry dog Miss Mercy and trying to figure out how to handle an issue with her totally untypical for regular dogs but related to her paralysis.

That is when this message came to me. God’s hands are NOT full. What do I mean? Well, have you ever heard someone use the expression, “My hands are full”? When I tell people my hands are full, I am basically saying I have tons on my plate. I am all load...
