Discovering the Mystery of Who I Am in Christ
We need to regain what we have lost. What have we lost? We have lost our identity. For thousands of years, humanity has tied its honor to identity. We were created by The living and eternal God in his image. Yet, we have forgotten our creator and exchanged our identity in his family for chance …
In this parable, a defenseless widow is all alone in an unjust world. All she has is her tenacity to go before an unjust judge. He keeps refusing to give her justice, but what makes this widow special? She won't give up! She keeps pleading.
You may feel like a failure today, but failing is learning. Learning is powerful! So, failure is powerful. Your inadequacy as a mother is all you need to allow God to bring you into new territory and to grow you as a person!
All this time at home has me thinking. For years, I have been looking for the words to speak on and/or write about the conundrum facing the church in our times.

Does this picture of me look like I am alone in the dark? Does it look like I'm having a bad day? Honestly, this picture was taken on a really terrible weekend, when I underwent an intense spiritual and physical attack. It was the third weekend of February. I spent the weekend in the hospital …

She will see the Lord’s provision and work in the middle of the trials.” I felt led to pray that the Lord will give us specialization to minister to people in the middle of the coming judgement and trial.
I don't know about you, but the world around me seems more and more unsettling with every passing day. There are pressures from without and pressures from within. Honestly, we are seeing days that are shocking- days that we never thought we would see. It's not the coronavirus that is shocking to me. It's not …
