Happy Friday!





Thank you to everyone joined on last night’s Facebook Party. Thank you to everyone for sharing their honest responses during our live session. This has not been an easy study and I know it’s hard but I believe in my heart we have all grown and are better for it. Shame no longer has a hold on us, we can let go of the unnecessary baggage and lay it at the foot of the cross. Jesus paid a high price to set us free from all the “stuff” life has thrown our way.

If you want to dig deeper in this week’s study, the prompts on pages 112-114 give you the Scriptures where you can find the stories of Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, and Bathsheba in the Bible. It's for further personal study!

I'm praying for you to have the strength and courage to finish all of the assignments in this study! Don't be afraid to dig deep. And do the "Never, Never, Never... Now!" and Silence Shame by Speaking Blessing exercises (in the yellow pages) this weekend.a

Choose to believe what God says about you in His Word and to trust that He will somehow make a way where there seems to be no way! Consider reading the following simple declarations aloud every day for the coming thirty days:
• I am FORGIVEN: God has removed my debts.
• I am JUSTIFIED: God has totally changed my state.
• I am REGENERATED: God has transformed my heart.
• I am RECONCILED: God himself has become my friend.
• I am ADOPTED: God has changed my family.
• I am REDEEMED: God has changed my ownership. I am his.
• I am SANCTIFIED: God has changed my behavior.



Love & blessings!

All That is Within Me

If you are like me and have an iPhone, you've probably spent the last couple days trying to figure out all the updates. If you have more than one Apple device, such as an iPad, you've spent even more time updating it as well. Or maybe that's on your to-do list for today (or tomorrow). It's not a quick update, it takes a fair amount of time; then once you update, you've got to reset a few things. So, that got me to thinking, have I spent the same amount of time alone with God, reading His Word, reaching out to other believers, or witnessing to the lost? I must confess, my answer would have to be "no." God loves us so much, He rejoices when we call on Him, when we reach out to Him in prayer, and when we meditate on His Word. He's so patient and so full of grace. I keep thinking back to the scripture: Deuteronomy 6:5 - Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. All means completely, entirely; for ...

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...
