Because I know prayer changes things, we must pray and keep on praying. Here are some posts that will build your faith and inspire you to persist until you breakthrough to victory.
Old sayings, idioms, fill our conversation, often without us fulling understanding how we got them. The little we know is enough that we can use them liberally to spice up our discussions. But there is one idiom that I’ve been pondering for almost a month, “The Apple of His Eye.” Believe me it’s the sweetest […]
Have you ever received a love letter that was so precious to you that you had to save it…tuck it away in a safe place. So amazing that through the years you retrieved it again and again to savor the sweet words? It’s only a jumble of words, written on plain piece of paper, stuffed […]
This teaching is more than a sermon on God’s promises. It’s more than a talk about God’s great promises. I want to you to take a look at what Abraham did while he waited for God to fulfill the promise, He made to him. Have you ever opened your Bible and a promise seemed to […]
We see amazing miracles throughout the Bible. Stories so amazing they seem impossible. Yet, we recognize that the God we serve is able to do things that are impossible in the realm that we live in, the physical realm. God is all powerful.

I know that you know about Jesus. You can rattle off more facts about Jesus than the average person, but that’s not what I’m asking you. I’m asking you “Who is Jesus to YOU? It’s a relational question that we need to ask and keep asking so we continue to grow in our friendship with […]
Have you ever hung around a salty Christian and left wanting to have a deeper relationship with Jesus? That’s what happened to my friend Rhonda. After watching the War Room, she said, “I want to pray like Clara.” You can listen to “4 Ways to Keep Your Relationship with God a Priority by clicking the […]
Say it with flowers is more than a clever florist mantra. From the lowly dandelion all the way to the brightest red rose they say “I love you”, when they are given to us by someone special. My camera is always full of flower pictures, but the fireweed, yes, it is a weed, is one […]
It is so easy to get anxious or become fearful when things are happening around you, or maybe even in your body. It’s easy to become anxious, but you don’t have to give in to the pressure of life. You don’t have to live under the circumstances. You can be strong in the Lord. I […]
You might remember that last summer I was invited to speak in two kid’s camps in Alaska. When we were preparing to go to Alaska I did more than pack my suitcase, I got ready physically. I wanted to see some sights. Some of those sites meant I would have to do some climbing and […]
I have discovered that joy is a choice. Even in the middle of a storm I can choose joy! I am really working on having a “Rejoice in the Lord” mentality. Want to watch Pat teach Rejoice in the Lord? Or maybe you prefer to listen? Did you listen to my podcast “A Choice to […]
