Holy Spirit
We can be Christians and not fully be 'alive' in our faith unless we have acknowledged the existence of the HOLY SPIRIT in our lives. The Holy Spirit is the paraclete (aka: helper) Jesus Christ left behind to make the journey in faith from our minds to our hearts. It might be difficult for some to believe in Jesus or to even believe in God. But those of us that do believe in Jesus, His death on the cross and His resurrection call ourselves Christians. But it is the Christian that does not BELIEVE God and all of His promises that ...

Bride of Christ Prayer
Father in the name of Jesus Christ, I pray that You would help me to live a Godly life as your bride - a life that is holy, sanctified and set aside for Your purpose, and prepared for Your good work. I confess Your word, that as your bride, my life is crucified with Christ, and in Christ I live; yet it's not I that live, but it's Christ that lives in and through me; and the life which I now live in the flesh as your bride, I live it by faith, power and strength of the Son of God ...
On His Plan For Your Life
"Everyone longs to give themselves completely to someone - to have a deep soul relationship with another; to be loved thoroughly and exclusively; but God, to a Christian, says: "No, not until you're satisfied, fulfilled and content with being loved by Me alone; with giving yourself totally and unreservedly to me; to having an intensely personal relationship with me alone; discovering that only in Me is your satisfaction to be planned for you. You will never be united with another until you are united with Me - exclusive of anyone or anything else, exclusive of any other desires or longings. I want ...

Just Show Up 365 (Day 245) Otiose?Do you know what otiose means? …Yeah… I didn’t either until I read it on Ryan’s 6th grade short story for his English class. This kid is like digging for gold and finding the rarest jewel, shocks you every time. He had to write a short story on a crazy place to visit so he wrote about a make believe summer trip to ‘Africa’... [Read more of this review]
Just Show Up 365 (Day 244) Discerning SpiritsIt is ironic that an insecurity I harbor is also one that I get asked about the most – the ‘reality’ to the discernment of spirits. Since I was a little girl I’ve had moments of seeing things that were clearly evil or even angelic and I’ve had moments (like yesterday) that odd things happen that can’t be explained. ...

Just Show Up 365 (Day 243) You Say It’s Your Birthday……It’s my birthday too, yeah! Does anyone think of that goofy kid on Sixteen Candles sitting backwards on that chair in the high school wood shop (right?) singing to Molly Ringwald. I always think of that movie on my birthday. And being ‘others’ birthdays, I do want to make a quick shout out to my younger sister who is exactly... [Read more of this review]
Just Show Up 365 (Day 242) Not by ‘my’ might, nor by ‘my’ power, but by HIS SpiritPraise be to God that He carries me on days like today. It is just like the enemy to want to ‘get you down’ when you are on such a high. Pfoot… I stick my tongue out at him. Get behind me satan. But that is what today is, a day of wrangling different demons: threat of my physical ailment coming back (will have to wait till... [Read more of this review]
