Life from Death

Planting season is upon us. Upon seeing this beautiful plant, I couldn’t help but think of the following passage from John 12:24, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain.” (Only this is an apple tree! 😃) I will forever be grateful to the One who laid down his life for me, in death, so I could have everlasting life!! 

#ThankYouLordJesusforsavingmysoul!!♥️🙏🏻

Faint Not!

Psalms 27:13; “I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.” Psalms 27:14, “Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.” Jonah 2:7; “When my soul fainted within me I remembered the LORD: and my prayer came in unto thee, into thine holy temple.” Galatians 6:9; “And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.” Luke 18:1; And he (Jesus) spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint. 1 Corinthians 15:58; “Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.”

The Man of Sorrows

There is no sorrow known to mankind that Christ has not experienced. Whatever your struggle this time of year, remember, Jesus knows and understands.  Rejection. False accusations. Loneliness. Pain (emotional, physical). Loss. Betrayal. He is close to the brokenhearted. (Psalm 34:18) He calls out to each one of us, to come to Him. The healer. The redeemer. The Saviour. Let us rise up and go, for the Master has come and calls for us! ❤️ (John 11:28)  He is despised and rejected by men, A Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him; He was despised, and we did not esteem Him. Surely He has borne our griefs And carried our sorrows; Yet we esteemed Him stricken, Smitten by God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; We have turned, every one, to his own way; And the LORD has...

God of the Valleys

The truth is, life is full of mountain top experiences + valleys too!  This morning I was reading in my Bible from the book of 1st kings 20:28;  Then a man of God came and spoke to the king of Israel, and said, “Thus says the LORD: ‘Because the Syrians have said, “The LORD is God of the hills, but He is not God of the valleys,” therefore I will deliver all this great multitude into your hand, and you shall know that I [am] the LORD.’ ” The Lord is SO good + faithful to us even when our faith in Him is small and wavering.  I remember being driven back to the place where my friend Jennifer and I were staying in Africa after a 15 hour day. We had gone on a one day safari. It was late at night. Not everyone had headlights or well maintained vehicles. It was scary, but we had a good driver! This very song came into my mind + h...
