My journey of abiding in Christ. I'm blogging what God is teaching me. He's shown me that He wants me to rest in Him and depend on Him like a babe in the womb rests and depends on its mother.

the answer is yes

There are all types of moms out there. For years, I was the uptight, live-by-rules kind of mom. I confess that I was a wet-blanket sort of mom when it came to time-consuming, messy, inconvenient, expense-required adventures.  When my son came along (10 years after two girls) I realized that I was sp...

now & later

Ever feel like it’s just one thing after another? This morning I was feeling sorry for myself, and the Lord reminded me that what I am going through is NOT just about the moment. It’s more about my future. It’s transforming me now, and preparing me for later. Now and later. The cir...

40 years

We are in relationship with a loving God. Though I cannot see Him with my eyes, He has become so tangible to me and to my heart. This morning, I was emotional and grateful for a certain friendship He has provided in my life. I was thinking, “Lord, why are you so good to me? [...]

awe-inspiring

The Lord has been speaking to me quite a bit from Psalm 139. These lessons are helping me understand my value in Him. Yesterday, I learned a truth worth repeating to myself multiple times a day: My value comes from being created in His image. Today, the Lord turned the lights on (so to speak) [...]

control

An excellent question was posed at bible study Tuesday night. We were discussing how Jesus tore the veil that separates us from God when he died on the cross;  how we have complete and unhindered access to God.  However, we allow things to come between us and the Lord. Here lies the question… ...

a done deal

I was very intrigued by this verse that I read today: “For by one sacrifice he has made perfect forever those who are being made holy.” Heb 10:14 NIV “For by one offering He has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.” Heb 10:14 NKJ This verse speaks of one thing th...

besieged

We have a warrior God. I heard a pastor say once that when it comes to spiritual warfare, the battle is not against us, but over us.  We are the spoils of war. The Lord is ever warring with the enemy for the salvation and transformation of His children. This truth came alive as I [...]

pruning

The Lord prompted me to go out to our rose garden this morning, so I grabbed the pruning shears and a bucket on my way. As I snipped off the dead blooms, He spoke to me about the pruning that He does in my life. Pruning is necessary. Shriveled blooms must be removed to make [...]

like Jesus

Many christians would say that an important goal or mark of growth in their lives is becoming like Jesus. The Bible encourages us to cast off sin, to be loving, to forgive, to “walk as Jesus walked.” (1 John 2:6) He has extended revolutionary love and grace to us. “…when the ...
