Overcoming Fear

07/17/2013

This past weekend while mowing, I rode down the path that leads to the edge of the woods. I turned off the motor and sat… I could hear a symphony of crickets and frogs making music. I saw deer and bunnies grazing—it was breathtaking. A year ago that very path had been where I walked and met God at the beginning of my day. I could pray out loud and no one could[...]

Our Hospital Debt was PAID in FULL

07/10/2013

Winners of aprons announced at bottom of post! An envelope was taped to our front door. It was a warrant for us to appear in court for Dale’s unpaid hospital bill. ( you should read the story if you're new to my blog). The original bill was over $30,000. We had been waiting for the insurance company to settle the claim. Well, they decided not to pa[...]

Does God still Work Miracles?

06/25/2013

This past weekend standing at my kitchen door was a young man who had just been married on our farm two weeks ago. Chris told me that right after their wedding his mom( who was at the wedding)went into the ICU unit at the hospital. She had been in critical condition since. Just that morning the doctors conveyed bad news to the family—there was no brain activity an[...]

A Life of Faith- George Muller

04/19/2013

There is no greater life than a life lived by faith. It is so powerful that even with a tiny amount of it, nothing is impossible to us (Matthew 17:20). Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1). Without faith it is impossible to please God, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He rewards thos[...]

A Legacy of Faith

04/17/2013

This week Proverbs 31 Ministries is focusing on women who have left a faith legacy in our lives. As you read about a woman who has inspired me, think about who has left a legacy in your life and whether you are leaving a faith legacy behind by the way you live. The words we speak and the way we live can alter another person’s life for eternity. I’ll never fo[...]

A Burning Fire in My Bones

03/21/2013

This past weekend I spoke at three different churches. As I walked to the podium at the first event I started to cry when I saw the large audience. Every time I speak I am reminded of where I came from and how He uses me in spite of myself. I was painfully shy as a child. I was so shy that I rarely spoke at school and had very few friends. I mean in order to hav[...]

Ten Invaluable Christian Books

02/28/2013

A great book is invaluable. There are a few in my collection that I return to over and over and can’t imagine being without. These books are worth more to me than great grandma’s antique china! Do you know what I’m saying? If I had to depart with all my worldly goods and could only keep one thing it would be a stack of my favorite books. Monday night I was the [...]

My One Word

02/20/2013

After reading the book, My One Word by Michael Ashcraft and (my friend) Rachel Olsen, I’ve decided that my one word for this year is; Love. This year, I’m going to be more intentional in my time with God to focus on- love. I want to burn with love for Jesus. I want to cross over into the next level of glory in loving Him the way He loves me. I want to love Hi[...]

In His Presence- Present

02/01/2013

I stared at my computer without an ounce of enthusiasm or creativity. A mountain of work beckoned me… With already missed deadlines, bills to be paid, taxes to be done, text messages waiting for answers, dishes in the sink… Then a phone call halted all of it and paralyzed my ability to do anything productive. I prayed, but it didn’t help. I couldn’t focus[...]

Love is As Strong as Death

01/16/2013

"Love is as strong as death. . ." Song of Solomon 8:6 True love is passionate, unquenchable, fiery and devoted at all cost. We galloped through an open field on our horses, then slowed to a trot and talked while riding side by side. Our conversation went from one level of glory to the next. It was heavenly. I had never told anyone the dreams of my heart, [...]

God’s Strength, Peace and Power in Middle of Hardship

12/17/2012

If you’re visiting me today because you read the Encouragement for Today devotion…Welcome! I’m so glad you stopped by. You can find the devotion at http://www.proverbs31.org/devotions/hardest-days-god-uses-them-good-2012-12/. Hardships are never welcome, especially at the holidays. Why can’t we just push pause on all sickness, death, money problems and tragedy [...]

Entertaining Angels Unaware

11/27/2012

I was sixteen years old, driving down the road and saw an old homeless lady sitting on a bench. The blistering heat kept the rest of the world inside air-conditioned buildings that day-but not her. As I drove past her, I felt this tug at my heart—I thought to myself, she could use an ice cream cone and company. I asked her what her favorite flavor was. She said, “Van[...]

He Restored us After Our Loss

11/05/2012

This past weekend November 4th was our very first grandchild’s 4th birthday. Grace Evangeline Young. I love that name, don’t you? Every grandchild is special, but she was especially special because we had waited so long for her arrival. Her mommy and daddy, Heather and Jeffrey, had been high school sweethearts—homecoming King and Queen. They graduated hi[...]

Sorcery, Mediums and Witchcraft

10/30/2012

Standing at my door was a girl I had known since 1st grade. At 8 years-old she had a fascination with magic, mediums and consulting the dead in séances. As a child I had never heard what God thought about these things, it just wasn’t talked about in my church. I didn’t know for sure that it was wrong but I felt it wasn’t right and never participated in her lifestyle. [...]

There is Power in the Name of Jesus

10/05/2012

There is power in the Name of Jesus There is power in the Name of Jesus! One day, one glorious day at the name of Jesus every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is LORD! Philippians 2:10-11 I had to get up and run around the house after I wrote those words! Until that day He has given believers authority to use the name of Jesus wi[...]
