Who Are You Pleasing?
Am I trying to win over human beings or God? Or am I trying to please people? Galatians 1:10a Last week I was talking to my BFF. I mentioned that I have to be mindful of not “people pleasing”. It is funny that after all these years, I can struggle with this. I also thinkContinue reading “Who Are You Pleasing?”
A Time of Prayer
Look to the Lord and His strength; seek His face always. (1 Chronicles 16:11 NIV) Dear God, Some days, the world feels very heavy. Some days the path of righteousness seems weighty. But then I remember. I remember that this is not all there is and to look to you. I sense a great shift deep in theContinue reading “A Time of Prayer”
Peace in Heaviness
You will keep in perfect peace, all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you! Isaiah 26:3 (NLT) The title alone seems like a dichotomy right? That is what I thought too as I sat in it recently. I started sensing a great shaking coming a couple of years ago. Now it is aContinue reading “Peace in Heaviness”
A Healthy Craving
Just like a deer that craves streams of water, my whole being craves you, God (Psalm 42:1 CEB) “Happy are people who are hungry and thirsty for righteousness, because they will be fed until they are full” (Matthew 5:6 CEB) Dear Lord, I thank you Father for Your greatness and faithfulness. You are true toContinue reading “A Healthy Craving”

Sound Familiar?
The Lord, the God of their ancestors, repeatedly sent his prophets to warn them, for he had compassion on his people and his Temple. But the people mocked these messengers of God and despised their words. They scoffed at the prophets until the Lord’s anger could no longer be restrained and nothing could be done. (2 Chronicles 36:15-16)Continue reading “Sound Familiar?”
Don’t Wait to Repent
Seek the LORD, all you humble of the land, you who do what he commands. Seek righteousness, seek humility; perhaps you will be sheltered on the day of the LORD’s anger. Zeph 2:3 and saying, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.” Matthew 3:2 I remember a time, not that long ago when IContinue reading “Don’t Wait to Repent”
Pray for Leaders
Remove the wicked from the king’s presence, and his throne will be established in righteousness. (Proverbs 25:5 CEB) I have a question for you: how often do you pray to God? And as a follow up, do you pray for your leaders? After I read this proverb a couple of days ago, I began thinkingContinue reading “Pray for Leaders”
Delighted in the Journey
The steps of a man are ordered by the Lord, who takes delight in his journey. Though he falls, he will not be overwhelmed for the Lord is holding his hand. Psalm 37:23-24 (BSB) I was thinking about this “journey” that we are all on. We are walking this life thing out daily. This lifeContinue reading “Delighted in the Journey”
