A Mother’s Courage for Her Daughter’s Soul

 “For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.” (Acts 2:39, KJV) Last week I was invited to speak at a conference on evangelism. By God’s power and grace, I was able to travel for the first time in sixteen months. Although the flight was difficult, after I arrived and was among the people, God strengthened me during the conference and to make the [...]

Not by Appearance, But by Heart

“… for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart.” (1 Samuel 16:7, KJV) Due to my not being able to drive yet, I am limited to the time that my husband has to drive us, which is mostly to the grocery stores and other stores to which we have to run an errand. We were at an out-of-town Trader Joe’s. When it was time to check out our groceries, the lines were long. [...]

A Little Cross

“To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.” (Psalm 30:12, KJV)  We were at Pete’s Coffee and Tea. After my husband ordered our coffees, I noticed a young girl coming to the cashier area. She was a simple, young American girl. Her attire drew no attention, and she wore no make-up. Yet, she was pretty. She was wearing the smallest, sweetest cross on a chain [...]

Not a Property, a Soul

“And this is life eternal that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.” (John 17:3, KJV)  Awhile back, we met a government-contracted builder with whom I had the opportunity to pray with for his salvation in Christ. Recently, we met again, and he was venturing into residential building. My husband and I saw a five acre lot that the builder might be interested in. I told my husband that we should consider [...]

I Have No Idea What to Do

“The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.” (Psalm 28:7, KJV) I had to look for a pair of exercise pants to use for the therapy I am receiving. When I went into the dressing room in the store to try on a pair, I glanced at the large mirror in front of me, and, for the first time, I noticed [...]

He’s Everywhere!

'Thine, O Lord is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom, O Lord, and thou art exalted as head above all."  (1 Chronicles 29:11, KJV) We were at Trader Joe’s, which is one of our weekly grocery stops.  After placing our items in the cart, I looked at each of the cashiers and asked God, “Ok, [...]

A to Z to Know God

“He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.” ( Psalm 147:3, KVJ) I was contacted by a church to meet with a Muslim woman from Afghanistan. Though I was not completely sure as to what the situation was all about, I made the appointment to meet with her by a water fountain in the center of town. She was a very young and beautiful woman. After our introduction, she immediately began to share her troubled situation. It was rather sad and [...]

The Plan for Your Life

 "In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths."  (Proverbs 3:6, KJV) We were checking out some groceries at Harris Teeter’s. The cashier was very young. I noticed that she had drawn the eyeliner on her eyelids perfectly. I said, “I like the way you wear your eyeliner. It is very pretty.” She thanked me. I asked her, “How long have you been working at this store?” Without looking up at me, she answered, “A few months.” [...]

Hard Life, But God is Still There

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. (Romans 1:16 KJV) I was finally able to sit long enough to see the dentist, and my husband—caring about everything concerning me—wanted me to try an electric toothbrush, so we went to a store called Bed Bath & Beyond, because coupons are accepted there. We looked at [...]

Dead Tree, Dirty Gutters, and Souls

“The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” (2 Peter 3:9, KJV)  The largest tree in our front yard was dead. It was a giant of a tree! Two men who had a tree service came to evaluate the condition of it. Right away they started to work on taking it down. They said that it had been dead for some time [...]
