Filling the Gap

599) There were times in the past, when my heart was filled with hurt, I would sit in a public place wishing that someone would come to me and ask me what was wrong. It didn’t happen but what I should have considered is that Someone has already filled that gap of hurt. God.  If

God is Not Hiding

598)  One of the definitions of hiding is to prevent others from finding. Sometimes it’s easy to think that if our eyes cannot see (or find) something then that “something” doesn’t want to be seen.  1 Chronicles 28:9 promises us that if we seek God, He will be found by you. God is not hiding.

God is Always Good

597) “God is great; God is good. Let us thank Him for our food.” We’ve heard these words and yet, believing them is another story. If God is, indeed, good then He would have to be good when things are going well with us. AND God also has to be good when the bad comes

Make Up Your Mind

596) Have you ever known someone who frequently waivered back and forth between choices because they could not make up their minds? Making a choice means you choose the consequences – good or bad – of that choice and sometimes you think that by not making the choice, it gets you out of this “jam”.

Prayer is a Mystery to Me

592) If you travel in Christian circles, it’s not unusual to hear someone say, “Please pray for me” or “I’ll pray for you.” I’m hopeful that many mean what they say, that they believe in the power of prayer. As a child, I used to think about this, asking my horrified Sunday school teacher, “Why

Be Careful What You Ask For

591) As an adult, I look back on things I asked God for when I was young and for many of them, I’m so glad He did not give them to me. There are some times in life when the only way someone can learn a lesson is if God does give him/her the very

I Didn’t Sign Up for This

590) Through the years, there have always been some influential religious leaders that preach a prosperity gospel. “God meant you to be blessed!
