CAN I JUST BRAG ABOUT GOD TODAY? About eleven years ago, I said a prayer, ‘God, I want a closer walk with You.’ He answered. I feel His intimate closeness in every aspect of my life. And it is so beautiful. Like yesterday, I was feeling down for no real concrete reason. A little anxiety …
“ARISE, MY DARLING, MY BEAUTIFUL ONE, COME WITH ME” (Song of Songs 2:10, NIV) That’s our great invitation from God, to live these extraordinary lives with Him as our Guide, Partner, Helper, Counselor, Friend, Teacher, Provider, and Father. And absolutely everyone is invited to the party! No matter how badly you think you’ve made a …
“GOD, WHY ME?” That was from someone who woke up to a troublesome situation today. I sent them a pic of what God had said to me in my early morning appointment with Him: “You can believe, can’t you, that your God used this trial as a new way of getting your attention so that you …
“HAVE I TOLD YOU LATELY HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU?” That was me to my hubby today. He said it’s because I’m living good. I replied, ‘Yes!! I’m enjoying driving my new Mercedes truck.’ Wink! Wink! And we had the biggest laugh about it. Then I said, “You know my love for you is not about any …

‘GOD, WHY DO YOU CARE IF I AM SAD?’ I asked Him after He showed up for me at 1 am the other morning to comfort me. ‘Weren’t you concerned about your daughter the other day when she seemed a little upset about something?’ I felt Him reply through my spirit. God, I was. And …
“AM I CRAZY?” I asked my daughters last night on the way back home from seeing the movie Joker. I told them how I felt God’s Presence with me at 1 am when I was up feeling all sad and depressed the night before. I was listening to Rich Roll’s podcast, and he said, “No …
“I NEED YOUR ADVICE ON SOMETHING PLEASE” That was me calling for a friend for help deciding whether or not to cancel Netflix for my daughters. I couldn’t make up my mind because they’re such great girls, but at the same time, I’ve noticed how it’s becoming such a distraction. She gave me the perfect …
