The word Strive is neither positive or negative.

God doesn't want to be your Sunday getaway.  He wants to be your permanent residence.

As we all walk out our Christian lives there are many times when things just do not work out the way we planned. 

Scripture warns us to guard our hearts above everything else.

We should give off such a strong aroma that people are drawn to the source of that fragrance—Jesus in us!

I am so glad that God does not react the same way we do!

I heard a story about a little girl having trouble falling asleep at night.

Did you know that every problem that frustrates and angers us has a solution?  

I have always known how important our thoughts are and that we have the authority to take charge of our thoughts.

For God hath not given us a spirit of fear; nbut of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. @ Timothy 1:7

I am so glad that God does not react the same way we do!

I am not sure if you’ve ever thought of this, but without the resurrection, Christianity would be another long-forgotten religion.

I am asked many times, is anger a sin?

My late husband used to teach a lot about “ Visible vs Invisible.” When he first started studying this, we had some fabulous conversations about what you see and how we pray and how the unseen is more real than what we see.

Having a positive focus sounds easy doesn't it?

This concept of having a "wide place" to travel also acknowledges the liberty David received from God. The Lord has given liberty to Christians too

With God, it usually comes down to one question: “Are you going to trust Me?”

Do you ever feel like you don’t measure up?

The Spirit-filled life is a command in Ephesians 5:18

No matter which way you choose to live, I pray we always remember the generous love of God that it is always overflowing in abundance.
