Monday Manna — Abide part 2
I continued to meditate on John 15:7, "If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you." He had more to show me about this verse and how it can play out in our lives. If you abide in Me [resting … Continue reading Monday Manna — Abide part 2
Restoration God’s Way
I was walking in new freedom, new strength, but the restoration of our marriage still seemed beyond reach. Trusting God to lead us, I pressed on with the path He'd set before me.

I was meditating on John 15:4-5 years ago, and gained deeper understanding to this concept of ‘abiding.’ "Abide in Me, and I in you.

Sometimes healing requires surgery. In my case, it would require a transplant. The next six months was to be a beginning. October came and went.

“Worry is not a badge of love. It doesn’t make you a better mom or wife or friend. Worry is part of the enemy’s tools to get his kingdom built. Trust in Mine.

This Sheep Writes, But Doesn’t Always Sleep
I am a sheep. This fact may make you wonder about my mental state, but it is true. Jesus Christ is Lord of my life and He is the Good Shepherd.
