He is Risen
1 Now after the Sabbath, as the first day of the week began to dawn, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the tomb. 2 And behold, there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door,...
What do you want for the children in your life?
That was the question I posed this week to a room full of courageous ladies in drug rehab. Answers flew back: “Happiness”, “Peace”, “Strength”, “A relationship with God”. In a previous Bible study, they had asked for a message on parenting. My wheels immediately began...
I Believe We Can Fly
How many times have we heard from our little children, when we were teaching them something new to do, that before we could even finish showing them how they would say, I can! I can! I want to do it! I want to do it! The eagerness they desired to accomplish it on...
CHOICES
Have you ever wanted to give up? Have you ever felt unloved? Have you ever felt alone and that no one cares? Satan loves to put these lies in our minds. He wants us to separate ourselves from everyone: family, friends, and the church because in isolation, he can...
Birdbrain Thinking

If You Let Them
As you walk down the hall at school or work, you see that group of people who were laughing and conversating loudly grow quiet, and their eyes become dodgy as you walk by. You hear a hurtful comment that was not intended to be heard by you. Or maybe, like me,...
More Like Jesus
What does it mean to become more like Jesus? Each time I hear the popular contemporary Christian song Less Like Me, by Zach Williams, the longing of my heart thumps hard and loud as the lyrics so accurately sum up my desire to be transformed to the likeness of...
In the Corner
The question was asked, "If Jesus walked into the room, what would your reaction be?" As you can imagine, most answered with a variation of, "Run to Him." However, my first thought was not at all what I expected. Instead, it was to stay in the back corner where I was...
