Spending time alone with God is one way you can get to know Him and know that He is good!  Seeking Him early each day will cause your day to be blessed and prosperous. I remember, years ago, when I was a single mom and a business owner, never seeming to have the time to spend with the Lord.  I was extremely busy, yet still wanted to get to know Him better.  My bed felt too good in the morning to get up extra early, but if I waited until evening...

For God may speak in one way, or in another, but man does not perceive it.  In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep slumber falls upon men, while slumbering on their beds, then He opens the ears of men, and seals their instruction.    Job 33:14-16 God is speaking to us all day long, but with the noises of the world it can be hard to hear Him.  While we are sleeping and our souls are quieted, He can speak into our spirits.  Many people...

As a follow-up to the most recent post (see below):   When I speak of your calling, as I did in the previous post, I am speaking of the specific mission God created YOU to fulfill.  The calling that if you refuse or ignore will mean certain people, places and things will be left untouched.  Your calling is truly the reason you live and breathe, and should cause you to jump out of bed each day eager to get to it! Your natural talent, while also...

In case you haven’t figured out, I have two callings in my life!  They are my reasons for being.  Obviously, you can tell from the posts in this blog that I love to declare that God is GOOD!  So one of my callings is derived directly from scripture: Psalm 40:9-10 (NLT)  I have told all Your people about Your justice.  I have not been afraid to speak out as You, O Lord, well know.  I have not kept the good news of Your justice hidden in my...

How often have you heard someone say, “Just knuckle down and do it!”?  How often have you heard someone say, “Just let go and give it to God!”?  Well, which is it?  Do you do it or does God do it? There is a lot of confusion in the body of Christ today; a lot of teaching that tells people they don’t have to do anything at all because of His grace.  They go as far as to call anything we do “works” and...

Once we start hearing the voice of God, it is important that we obey what He tells us to do (or not to do).  He communes with us for a purpose – so we know His will for our lives.  A story from my own life is a good example of how NOT to do it.  For years, I was a Diet Coke fiend!   I was not always feeling very good.   One day God spoke to me saying, “Drink water.”  I would hear this voice saying drink water.   But, I...
