Psalm 115:1 ~ "Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to Your name be the glory," Of course that's true. Always true. Always. Which is why I was so struck reading John 17:22 when Jesus prays, "I have given them the glory that You gave Me, that they may be one as We are … Continue reading God’s glory given – to us?
Holy Spirit
“Thank you for digging the well so I could come and drink.”
For the past year I have been one of two regulars who attend our local house of prayer meetings. (The other being the founder and leader.) Four days a week we worshipped and interceeded for our local community. Some days others joined us, but most of the time it was just the two of us. … Continue reading “Thank you for digging the well so I could come and drink.”
He’s dying to speak with you.
God has a great sense of humor. I was sitting in quiet, trying to pray and I felt like I hit a wall. I couldn't hear His voice. Then I heard the expression, "He's dying to speak with you." I laughed out loud. He's not just "eager" to talk with us. He literally died so … Continue reading He’s dying to speak with you.
You are a Converser, not a Converter
God is pithy. He can transform one simple sentence into a powerhouse of truth that can change your life. I woke up hearing Him speak this phrase to me, "Daughter, you are a Converser, not a Converter." I'm a Converser - one who has conversations - one who converses with another about the love of … Continue reading You are a Converser, not a Converter

I would be so excited … Continue reading ‘Selah’ – first. ‘So that’ – second.
Is Truth Flexible?
If you're anything like me, the mere question fills you with an immediate and intense rebuttal declaring the supremacy of absolute truth. But what if truth can be absolute and flexible at the same time? Before you swipe left, let's give this a think together. I've been studying the armor of God, taking long deep … Continue reading Is Truth Flexible?
A Hero’s faith is in their journey.
I woke up this morning with this sentence ringing in my ears - "A Hero's faith is in their journey." Normally this is where I'd wow you with my revelatory insights written in prose worthy of a Pulitzer. But today I'm going to leave the revelation to the Holy Spirit, and let HIM speak to … Continue reading A Hero’s faith is in their journey.
Writer’s block
I don't know how long one has to write before they can consider themselves 'a writer.' But since I am experiencing writer's block, I guess I'll just go with it. Thankfully a dead guy spoke to me about it during my reading this morning. And I think I'm gonna put my pen down and listen... … Continue reading Writer’s block
Don’t bark back.
As a parent, I'm always trying to teach my kids some lesson or another. We're supposed to, right? It says so right there on page 36 in the Parenting Manual (page 2 in the Cliff Notes version). But it seems the more I talk, the less they listen. Jesus has many names in the Bible. … Continue reading Don’t bark back.
