Sharing God's heart through poetry, prose and prayer
On this page, you will find weekly devotional articles which I hope will challenge and encourage you on your journey.
Finished!
Your sins, no matter what they may be, have been forgiven, once and for all. Your debt has been paid. This is the true message of Easter, and this message is for you. “When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.” With that, he bowed his head and gave...
Like A Child
Our confidence is correctly placed in God. He is not daunted by our requests, or our belief in him. He really can make, do or fix anything! “Truly I tell you, anyone who does not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it." (Mark 10:15) Having...

Look at YOU!
Messy or not, you are Someone’s beloved. You are Someone’s ‘Magnificent’ whom he wants to unveil to the world! “We love because he first loved us.” (1 John 4:19) Magical moments occur in my home first thing in the morning in the middle of summer! If I wake early...

When God chooses the unexpected
God doesn’t wait for the ‘religious’ to stop at the roadside. He calls the unexpected to spread grace to his children… those who don’t quite fit the mold, those whom some might even judge or look down on because of their lifestyle choices. “The King will reply, ‘Truly...
Prayer Stirrers!
Prayer carries us to the holy place, to the presence of God in the holy of holies where our vision becomes clear once more, and any cloud of doubt or fear melts away. “And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet...
