God can handle our honesty
I was in a crappy mood on Friday. I’m not quite sure how to fully explain why, but I was in a funk. I realized I was snippy with my colleagues and even someone I didn’t work closely with teased and said my energy was off. I laughed it off, but knew that he had […]
Jesus’ Hands and Feet
A few weeks ago, I prayed the bold prayer of asking to be Jesus’ hands and feet. In the middle of my prayer, I received a nudge, “are you sure you want what you are asking?”… I wasn’t. I instantly changed my prayer to “Lord, please help me to be your hands and feet”. You […]
Being obedient
Oy! This morning I wasn’t sure what I was to share. But the thought of obedience has been on my heart recently. So, this is a repost. The thought occurred that this morning, I needed to get out of bed, and go read my bible. It’s a Sunday, and still early by my standards. But […]
Courageous men
My cousin asked me to write on this topic – close to two years ago. This is probably one that I would have avoided for a very long time. My first thought was: how can I talk about courageous men and not discuss King David. Then it occurred to me, how can I not talk […]
Directions
I work in one of the busiest cities in the world. On my way to work the other day, as I was walking on the sidewalk, I gazed up to one of the tallest buildings. I’m a true to the core New Yorker – there is no stopping to gaze upon anything, only continued movement […]
Is God too busy for you?
I had a hectic week this week. My routine was different and normally I use my train time to text or catch up on reading. Because of my unusual routine, my reading time was diminished and I realized multiple times that I had simply forgotten to respond to messages that had come in that I […]
My bruised thumb
Repost – but I think it’s fitting today as we think of the sacrifice that Jesus made for us. My bruised thumb I went excavating last night. Well. Not really. I sat in my living room and ‘excavated’ a dinosaur from an egg. I gave my daughter money to buy gifts for her teachers and […]
When do you worship?
Do you have a time set aside in your day to talk to God, and to allow Him time to talk back to you? Some time ago, I would spend a quick few minutes, then move on to the next task at hand. I’m a sleeper, and one of my favorite things to do was […]
Daddy’s girl
My car muffler blew out last weekend. I tried to have it addressed right away by seeing my uncle who knows about cars, but for one reason or another, I was unable to find the place he was sending me to. He’d also advised me that while it sounded bad, it was still in driving […]
What does your ministry look like?
I think often times when we think of ministry – we think of our pastors or those who preach to large congregations and say we could never do that. Did you know that your ministry could be reaching out to one person at a time? I am finding out that that’s how God has chosen […]
