Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous–how well I know it. (Psalm 139:14 NLT) Today I can say this verse with confidence, but for years, the Enemy used to make me believe otherwise. Like many people, I wasn’t happy with my body image. I paid more attention to what peopleContinue reading “We’re His Masterpiece”

It’s Just a Dress
“Vanity of vanities,” says the Preacher. “Vanity of vanities! All [that is done without God’s guidance] is vanity [futile, meaningless—a wisp of smoke, a vapor that vanishes, merely chasing the wind].” (Ecclesiastes 1:2 AMP) I heard a story about a customer who had gone to a store to pick up a dress. Apparently, something didn’tContinue reading “It’s Just a Dress”
He is Touched by Your Faith!
While people were crowding and pressing against Him, Jesus stopped and asked the question, “Who touched me?” (Luke 8:45). Then Peter jumped in with his two cents, “Master, the people are crowding and pressing against you” (v.45). But Jesus wasn’t referring to just any touch, so He explained, “Someone touched me; I know that powerContinue reading “He is Touched by Your Faith!”
Unshakable
“Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse because it is built on bedrock. But anyone who hears my teaching and doesn’tContinue reading “Unshakable”
Be Still
He says, “Be still, and know that I am God.” (Psalm 46:10 NIV) Other versions put it this way: “Let go of your concerns! Then you will know that I am God.” (GW) “Cease striving and know that I am God.” (NASB) Being still means to come to Him, let go of whatever it isContinue reading “Be Still”
No Empty Words
“The rain and snow come down from the heavens and stay on the ground to water the earth. They cause the grain to grow, producing seed for the farmer and bread for the hungry. It is the same with my word. I send it out, and it always produces fruit. It will accomplish all IContinue reading “No Empty Words”
The Rewards of Giving
“Give, and you will receive. Your gift will return to you in full—pressed down, shaken together to make room for more, running over, and poured into your lap. The amount you give will determine the amount you get back.” (Luke 6:38 NLT) Over the years, I’ve come to realize how true this principle is. WheneverContinue reading “The Rewards of Giving”
Remember
“For seven days you must live outside in little shelters. All native-born Israelites must live in shelters. This will remind each new generation of Israelites that I made their ancestors live in shelters when I rescued them from the land of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.” (Leviticus 23:42-43 NLT) It’s so easy toContinue reading “Remember”
Small and Humble
Finally, he appeared to me, even though I am like someone who was born at the wrong time. I am the least important of all the apostles. In fact, I caused so much trouble for God’s church that I don’t even deserve to be called an apostle. (1 Corinthians 15:8-9 CEV) The most well knownContinue reading “Small and Humble”
Choose Joy!
When I was a kid, Winnie-the-Pooh was one of my favourite Disney cartoons. So you can imagine my excitement when Disney introduced the movie, Christopher Robin. The only character I was never a big fan of was Eeyore, the donkey. He was always so pessimistic, gloomy and depressed that he’s just not my cup ofContinue reading “Choose Joy!”
