Today is a New Day!

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Matthew 6:33

They (God's mercies) are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. (Lamentations 3:23)

Often as women we are overwhelmed by too many things to do (Martha & Mary) because there are many choices concerning how we divide our time. Setting priorities is to determine what is important and how your time will be divided - who or what will take precedent over other parts of life.
  • Your personal relationship to Jesus Christ
  • Your commitment to home and family - spouse & children
  • Work/employer
  • Your service to God through ministries in the church and involvement in the community
Faithfulness describes who God is...No matter what you do, God cannot be unfaithful because He cannot deny Himself (2 Tim 2:13). He is steadfast and trustworthy. He keeps His Promises (Heb 10:23) God's presence is assured, even if we are unaware of it. He just want our obedience - obedience is better than sacrifice.

Radical obedience.  I’ll be honest, that word “radical”  means “affecting the fundamental nature of something” (dictionary.com).  God is calling us to fundamentally change the way we view obedience to Him.  He is asking us to let our thoughts and actions reflect what we say our hearts believe. That God loves us.  That God has a perfect plan for our lives that is better than our own plan.  That God’s plan is for our good. <Ginny Blankenship #YestoGod>

Have an awesome day!

Good Friday

  Happy Good Friday   This is the day that we remember what Jesus did for us --- enduring beating, mocking, and being crucified.   I imagine his disciples did not consider it to be a “good” Friday at the time. But what makes it GOOD is what happened on Sunday --- when Jesus did the impossible and rose from the dead.    Knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot.  ~ 1 Peter 1:18-19 ESV   One of the best ways of celebrating Jesus and His Resurrection…is through family traditions.    Family traditions can be as simple as attending  ️  church and having lunch or brunch together.    Jesus was a story-teller. I believe he knew the power of a story to capture hearts and bring joy while effectively delivering a specific message. He often used parables to tea...

Why God Wants to Bless You!

  Why God Wants to Bless You!   “For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will have an abundance. But from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away” (Matthew 25:29, ESV). Do you know that God wants to bless you? He wants you to have abundance, lacking no good thing. But He doesn’t want that for you and me so we can merely enjoy our lives. He wants us to steward our resources so we can be better able to reach out to others and bless them in His name. Jesus said in Matthew 5:16 (ESV),   “…let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”   The goal is fruitfulness. The goal is God’s Kingdom. The goal is for God’s blessing to flow through us so we might be a blessing to others, to the glory of His name!
