"This is the message we heard from Jesus and now declare to you. God is light and in Him there is no darkness at all." 1 John 1:5 As I write this blog entry, it is the last week of January 2022, and it is very dark. This time of year always feels so dark and cold. The twinkling lights that shone during the Christmas season are[...]
Charles Spurgeon says, "The book of Psalms instructs us in the use of wings as well as words. It sets us both mounting and singing". During the study of Psalm 119, the HEARTstrong Morning Lifegroup were challenged to write a Psalm- their own song, Psalm 151.

Faith is often compared to a seed. Like a seed, full of promise, is planted in the dark soil without light, Jesus tells us that news about the Kingdom is planted in our hearts.

This morning as you woke up, so did 'possibility.' It's constantly lingering in the air around you. What can I do today? Your 'possibility' is ready to enlarge your life. Possibility means you are aware of God, who is behind all things good and makes all things possible to those who believe. "And looking at them Jesus said to t[...]
Last month in one of my blog posts, I spoke of being challenged to hold onto my belief that God would provide. It was a very painful journey, filled with much anxiety and fear for what might happen. At the point of writing that blog, the final answers from Him had not yet made themselves apparent. In that moment, I recognized I[...]
“Go out and stand before me on the mountain,” the Lord told him. And as Elijah stood there, the Lord passed by, and a mighty windstorm hit the mountain. It was such a terrible blast that the rocks were torn loose, but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind, there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the e[...]
