From my journals: November 2005 – I was struggling with what I saw of a split personality in my life. So I asked the Lord, “Father, how do You see my life? One minute I am ministering in tenderness and the next spewing out criticism and unbelief. HELP!” “I see you as a daisy. You … Continue reading Monday Manna – The Value of Hiddenness

Faith Requires Focus – Another Look
So excited to get this up for all of you. God gave me more to share about faith and focus. And this time I had the joy of teaching it in Lodi to a wonderful group of God's family. There are treasures here to help your walk with the Lord. May you be blessed. https://youtu.be/ngmvBRw61YI … Continue reading Faith Requires Focus – Another Look
Monday Manna – True Worshippers
God Is Looking for True Worshippers But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. John 4:23 NKJV Several years ago, I was asking Abba about worship and what it meant to be a true … Continue reading Monday Manna – True Worshippers
Faith Requires Focus
This is my message from Sunday, that I re-recorded at home. It could definitely be more animated but talking to wall vs. a congregation was a new experience. Love the picture YouTube chose to advertise. LOL We are facing a very chaotic world full of opportunities to shine for Jesus, but we need real faith … Continue reading Faith Requires Focus
Monday Manna – Praise and Rest
I began my time by telling Holy Spirit, "I’m totally distracted this morning. Reading and pondering, but I'm not ‘present’ with You." I stood up in the only bare three-foot by four-foot space in my prayer room. As an act of obedience to an inner nudge, I put out my arms and said, "Lord, I … Continue reading Monday Manna – Praise and Rest
Are You Meek? – Hebrew Lesson
Meekness is often looked upon as weakness, cowardly, but true meekness is something altogether different. Let's look at the Hebrew: MEEK 6035עָנָו ʻânâv, aw-nawv'; from H6031; depressed (figuratively), in mind (gentle) or circumstances (needy, especially saintly):—humble, lowly, meek, poor. <6031>עָנָה ʻânâh, aw-naw'; a primitive root (possibly rather identical with H6030 through the idea of looking … Continue reading Are You Meek? – Hebrew Lesson
Monday Manna – The Smallest Details
"What is the price of five sparrows? A couple of pennies? Not much more than that. Yet God does not forget a single one of them. And he knows the number of hairs on your head! Never fear, you are far more valuable to him than a whole flock of sparrows. Luke 12:6-7 TLB Fear … Continue reading Monday Manna – The Smallest Details
Worth the Wait
2011 opened with a whisper and continued on kitten’s feet through most of the year. To look, you’d think not much was happening. My journals are full of jots and tittles but few lengthy conversations. It was as if we were on pause. Still, there was a massive shift in Mike’s life. Mike had always … Continue reading Worth the Wait
Monday Manna – The Sound of Silence
One morning in April, 2009, I was thanking God for our secret place and time of peace before the day started. “Thank You, Lord, for time alone with You.” “Mary Ellen, I want to show you something. Let’s go for a boat ride.” In a vision, I see myself sitting in a small wooden row … Continue reading Monday Manna – The Sound of Silence
The Bridal Army – Hebrew Lesson
The Bridal Army: In Song of Solomon 6:10, Yeshua says of His Bride: Who is she that looketh forth as the morning, fair as the moon, clear as the sun, and terrible as an army with banners? KJV We are hearing a lot about God raising up an army, but do we realize that it … Continue reading The Bridal Army – Hebrew Lesson
