“Do What He Tells You”
Jesus’s first miracle, turning the water into wine, is a quiet miracle. He didn’t do it in the midst of crowds or in the temple. Even the master of the house didn’t realize what was going on. We know that his mother was there and some servants who, because they listened and did what He …
Pursued by God
While in Texas for a convention, I attended a marvelous service at a church my cousin and her husband pastor in McKinney, Texas. It was a Sunday night that was full of the Holy Spirit. Good people praising, worshiping, waiting and listening for a Word from God. … and He responded. He spoke to many …
“Then I came by”
The phrase struck my heart. I was reading in Ezekiel where the Lord was going through the birth and life of Israel and how Israel started out as an abandoned newborn baby. The Message translation says, “No one cared a fig for you. … You were thrown out in a vacant lot and left there, …

“Master, I want to see again.”
When reading the story of the blind man who wouldn’t stop crying out to Jesus until he was heard, I was struck by his request: “Master, I want to see again.” My heart immediately cried out those words to the Father: I want to see again! I get so distracted by this world! I want …
The Killing of Innocents
The terrorists would say there are none innocent, everyone is guilty. Ironically – That is what the Lord says in a sense- all have sinned! But what we need is a Savior – NOT a terrorist! We need the One who can transform us from the inside out! Not one who maim’s from the outside, …
Relax! I’ve Got This!
“Life is not defined by what you have, even when you have a lot. “Has anyone by fussing before the mirror ever gotten taller by so much as an inch? If fussing can’t even do that, why fuss at all? … What I’m trying to do here is get you to relax, not be so …
