Many of us are familiar with the verse that states “Cast your cares on Him because He cares for You.” (1 Peter 5:7) Isn’t it interesting that the bible does not say to simply drop your cares; but we need to “cast” them – throw them away? Too many of us have allowed our cares to be lowered just below us; we know where they are, and they are attached to our “fishing rod of life” that we tightly grasp. However,…
It has been stated that we as believers need to nail some things to the cross (e.g. pride, self-will, anger, unforgiveness, greed, addictions, etc.) However, when I thought more about this, an insight came to me this morning – once we nail things to the cross, we need to TURN OVER THE HAMMER to the Holy Spirit. It was shown to me that if we keep our hands on the hammer; we could be tempted to turn it around and use…
There may be a thorn in your life but God has ministered to me this morning by saying that although I may be experiencing thorn piercing pain, the fact is, it is on His rose bush.

Do we know that sometimes our dreams are crying…all they want is a chance to be released? Have they been hidden behind the bars of our negative thinking for such a long time? It is time for your creativity to break free! Unfortunately, some dreams are now starving. They used to…
I must say that I initially thought this a very strange thought, but I earnestly believe the Holy Spirit was speaking to me and confirming my part in this journey of life. Let me be honest and put it in the context of when this thought occurred. I had just gotten off the scale which revealed that I had lost almost 3 pounds and I knew it was because I was diligent in my exercise and was changing my eating…
Christ Offers Victory In Darkness It is hard to ever think of any type victory being developed while in a state of darkness. However, it is in darkness that new things can be secretively developed by the best personal photographer we will ever know – our Heavenly Father. God knows what the final picture of our lives will look like and more importantly, He knows which pictures to develop and when to have them come forth. At times, we don’t…

HIS report has not changed, it’s doesn’t shift, it doesn’t contradict itself, it doesn’t grow old, it’s applicable to anything that’s going on today, it’s real, it comforts, it encourages, it directs, it restores, it…
