We can rise!
Bible Reading Today: 2 Samuel 10, 1 Chronicles 19, Psalm 20
Psalms 20:8 They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright.
We all have our bad days...and although we physically get back up & endure the next day, how many of us stay down emotionally? We may be right back at work physically, but emotionally, we are still on the ground defeated...but not for long! There IS a way to rise up entirely ready for a brand new day, leaving the past behind...we must repent, get baptized & receive the Holy Ghost! It's amazing how much of the Bible points to this wonderful, salvational solution! We CAN rise! We experience our own personal resurrection with these 3 key steps! We will still have some bad times, but the hope & encouragement of God's Word, and our born-again experience, will remind us why we can keep going, keep rising & keep growing with God! "They are brought down & fallen" the Scripture says...they are choosing to stay down..."but we are risen & stand upright"! We are choosing to rise up in a new joyful life with Christ!

A Moment of Silence.
As was powerfully preached this past Wednesday, "Let there be light" were the first words spoken by God in Genesis 1:3... And He wasn't necessarily speaking about a physical manifestation... But a Spiritual one. Knowing that creation Would mean redemption. It would mean... Heaven needs to touch earth... Light would need to pierce the veil of darkness... The process of creating was ongoing... All the way to the point of creating in us clean hearts (Psalm 51:10) by being born again of water &...
The Heart of the Struggle
Focus Scripture: But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart. Luke 2:19 Hello again! It's been about 4 months since I've stepped back into this space, and I have to say, I am taking very gentle steps. It's been on my heart so much to write again, but I am treading lightly. I may not post every day, unless God leads me there again...but for now, I am just moving forward in God's grace. I have some blog ideas stored up that I've been saving over time as I reflect upon His...
