  • Today, I Choose Not to be in FEAR!

    War looms on the horizon.  Violence is rampant in our cities.  Evil is all around.  Yet, I will not give in to fear.  I will stand steadfast in my faith and trust in the Lord.  I know that my God in heaven controls everything.  What is Fear?  One of today’s prophets, Julie Green, describes fear…

  • A BLESSED HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!

    As we begin the new year of 2024, I want to thank and praise the Lord for all His blessings and for sustaining me through 2023.  It’s a new year.  Let this be a year of new beginnings, renewed faith, and devotion to our great God.  Lord, help us turn from our wicked ways, repent…

  • Today, I Choose to Serve the Lord!

    Remember the Bible verse, “What profit a man if he gains the whole world but loses his soul?”  I have pondered on that verse for years.   It is so true!  Is it worth it to have all the wealth, power, and prestige in this world but end up burning in the fires of hell?  Absolutely…

  • Today, I Choose Laughter!

    Laughter is good medicine and a gift from God, and God loves a merry heart.  Once, when I was getting ready for work, a popular Christian song played over and over in my head for several minutes.  When I got into the car to drive to work, I turned on the radio, and that song…

  • A Belated Merry Christmas to All!

    May God’s peace and Blessings be with you all.  Our kids and grandchildren were here from Arizona, Duluth, MN, and Iowa.  I felt so Blessed to have my family around me.  I do, however, remember a Christmas forty-one years ago.  I had lost my husband and my children’s father in late October of that year. …

  • Today, I Choose COURAGE

    Standing for your beliefs takes great courage when the world is against you.  Yet God continually asks us to stand firm amid adversity, just as young David did when he met Goliath.  David knew God was with him.  He was bold and brave.  He believed God would give him victory over the giant.  I long…

  • Today, I choose REPENTANCE

    The Bible says Godly sorrow produces repentance without regret.  It’s challenging but necessary to confess our sins before the Lord.  True repentance involves a change or conversion in our minds and actions and a genuine sorrow for our sins.  As a Catholic, I can tell you I’m scared to go to confession.  It’s a humbling…

  • Today, I Choose Contentment

    What’s it like to be content?  It’s like freeing yourself from the burden of always wanting more.  For a time in my life, I was discontent.  I couldn’t make enough money to buy or do everything I wanted.  It was always more, more, more.  God showed me the error of my ways, and I learned…

  • Today, I want to talk about our power & authority in Christ!

    Christ gave power and authority to the Apostles to heal the sick, cast out demons, and cure diseases in His name.  The name of Jesus is our power and authority.  Luke chapter 10 says Jesus gave us the power to tread upon serpents and scorpions (demons and evil spirits).  We have that same power as…

  • Today, I’ll talk about SELFISHNESS

    Growing up in the post-World War II era, my family struggled, at times, to make ends meet.  My siblings and I had what we needed, but no extras.  In my teens, I started babysitting my cousins.  At sixteen, I worked summers at the local A & W Drive-In.  The money I earned bought me freedom…
