Faith can move mountains, that’s what we’re told. If you believe in something, even in the smallest way, just a hint of an idea, remarkable things can be accomplished. What do you believe? Do you believe that God can do incredible things? I certainly do! He has no limits and is capable of accomplishing things […]

Without Reservation
God is faithful and we can trust Him without reservation. – George Muller I’ve recently begun reading an autobiography on George Muller. I was familiar with him due to having read a biography of him in school. He lived back in Germany in the 1800s and was head of an orphanage. I also recall him […]
The Full Armor of God
I’ve been reading about the full armor of God lately. How we should equip ourselves with it, use it to safeguard and encourage ourselves. Though I’ve been aware of the armor of God for a long time, it struck me recently how the Bible said to put on the full armor. Not just a piece […]
Wait for it
Wait for it – whatever your “it” is. If your goal is God’s best and you are looking for His direction, there is no wait too long. These words ring true, and I truly believe them, but if you are at all like me actually living them is where the challenge is. What can we […]
Never Give Up
Never give up – something we cannot be reminded of too often! We must never give up on God’s promises, on His love, on His favor, etc. Sometimes the enemy can appear to win or the situation may look a little extra bleak, but that is not the time to grow weary. Light always triumphs […]

Right off, faith is dear to me because it involves hoping, believing in something not yet obvious. But at what point does reality meet faith? How can we best practice […]

Untapped Potential
Each of us has untapped potential in us, and if we had a hint of how much I think we would be astonished! Let me tell you a story. A story many of us are familiar with yet with stunning depth and detail that we haven’t even considered! Long ago, there was a boy named […]

Blessed Assurance
As I mentioned before, I so enjoy the hymn Blessed Assurance. I thought it would be interesting to look up the origin of the hymn and it’s author to learn about and share with you! As I did some research, I learned a few fascinating things about the author, Fanny Crosby, that I hadn’t known! […]
Move Mountains
Faith can move mountains. Most of us have probably heard this phrase. Christ said it while encouraging His disciples to have a strong and sincere faith. “I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it […]
