Your relatives are going to ask you, they always do, what you got for Christmas. Even though you try to remember every gift, you probably didn’t even mention your most wonderful gift. And some Christmases, you might have been too busy to even open it. But this Christmas, more than ever you NEED to open […]
Galatians 4:6 NLT And because we are his children, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, prompting us to call out, “Abba Father.” This verse makes me want to squeal in my loudest voice, YES! And if you’ve heard me talk, you know I have a loud voice. There are […]

Spring green is my absolute favorite color. It doesn’t last long so I drink in its beauty like the bees buzz summer flowers for sweet nectar. It’s too early for bees when the royalty of my garden, the magenta azaleas, bloom. Happy singing birds, building their nests, flit away squawking when I come too close. […]
I love this verse. To talk about Divine Reset, lets look at this verse. God was talking to Joshua, but this is a good reminder for you too! Deuteronomy 31:8 NIVThe LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not […]
