If you ever want to know what it truly means to be saved and to be in Christ, and whether or not repentance and obedience to Christ are really required by God for salvation, then read the book of 1 John. He pulls no punches. He tells it like it is. He does not soft … Continue reading Walking in the Light

Wake Up!
This is a message to “Wake up” from our spiritual slumber, to rise from the dead, to strengthen what remains and is about to die, to remember what we have received and heard from God, to obey it, and to repent of our sins, and Christ will shine on us. The Lord gave me this … Continue reading Wake Up!
While They’re Sleeping
Shifting, creeping, while they’re sleeping,Through the windows they are peeping,Hidden glances and romances,They continue in their prances. Now they make for strange bedfellows,Lifting up their barks and bellows,Thirst for lust, not what is holy,They are moving very slowly. Not sincere, they hide their motives,Make excuses for explosives,Vain in worship, God not Master,Far from Him they … Continue reading While They’re Sleeping
Life’s a Game?
Headed nowhere, that’s the game.Changing nothing, still the same.Fighting battles, not to win,For intending to give in. Play with fire, will get burned.Not intending hearts to turn.Always running here or there,Seeming to not have a care. Making fun of everything.Joking, laughing, life’s a fling.Entertainment – where it’s at!They’re not kidding – that’s a fact! Have … Continue reading Life’s a Game?
The Test of Time
“If time was on our side,There would be no cause to hurry.Whatever we’ve been putting off,Would no more be a worry. “We could dawdle all we want,And take our good old time,And just relax, and have some fun,And bathe ourselves in life sublime.” But time’s not on our side.And, if that is what we’re thinking,That … Continue reading The Test of Time
Love Pursuing
Time is ticking, running out.Where is your faith? Do you doubt?What’s your practice? Where’s your life?Who’s your idol for tonight? Making noises, sing your songs.Blow your trumpets. Clang your gongs.Throw your parties. Chat with friends.Entertainment never ends. Love pursuing. Never find.Sin’s addictions not rewind.Going nowhere. Spin your wheels.Lust and lewdness are the thrill. Jesus Christ … Continue reading Love Pursuing
The Letters
Some of us, who call ourselves Christians today, may identify with one of these seven churches in Revelation more than others. Some of us may be ones who do a lot of the right things but we have forsaken our Lord because we are operating from the flesh and not from the Spirit of God. … Continue reading The Letters
Free Indeed!
Do you ever feel like what you have done is so bad that you could never be forgiven? Are you afraid to tell the truth for fear you will be rejected? Or, out of fear of other consequences? Do you remain in sinful addiction because you have given up hope of ever changing? The Lord … Continue reading Free Indeed!
My Jonah Story
The Lord Jesus led me to read Psalms 119:105-112 ESV. Back in the early 1980s, when my children were still quite young, and I was a young mother of four, I had a situation in a church with the leadership misjudging me, and honestly, not being very nice about it, either. The pastor said to … Continue reading My Jonah Story
Call On Him
Our God, the One and Only True God – Father, Son and Holy Spirit – is absolutely amazing! His grace is amazing! He loves us so much that he, Jesus Christ, God the Son, died on a cross for our sins. He died that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. He died, … Continue reading Call On Him
