“Hearing that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, the Pharisees got together. One of them, an expert in the law, tested him with this question: ‘Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?’ “Jesus replied: ‘”Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.” This … Continue reading God’s Great Commands

When I Am Afraid
When the Lord Jesus gave me this song to write, on October 17, 2016, he had been taking me through a trial with bed bugs. I had never had bed bugs before. I didn’t think I would ever get them, either, so this definitely took me by surprise. Yet, through this trial the Lord was … Continue reading When I Am Afraid
You Are Loving and Forgiving
February 19, 2012 We were battling sickness in our house for over a week. It appeared we kept recycling the same germs to one another. And, then I walked into our bedroom one day and turned on a light when my husband was sleeping. I didn’t think about it. The light was like a sharp … Continue reading You Are Loving and Forgiving
When in the Stillness
September 26, 2011 I was reading in 1 Corinthians 10 for my quiet time with the Lord.

And yet, God was not pleased with them, because they did not … Continue reading When in the Stillness

The Lord Jesus gave me this song to encourage my heart. We have so many different voices speaking to us at various times – our own inner voice, Satan, the world, friends, family, church, and our pasts, etc., in addition to the voice of the Holy Spirit within us. Sometimes it takes much spiritual discernment … Continue reading What the Lord Says
Zeal For Your House
The house of the Lord is the temple of God, which is the body of Christ, which is comprised of those who have trusted in Jesus Christ to be Lord and Savior of their lives. It is not a building, and it is not a human organization, nor a church denomination, nor is it a … Continue reading Zeal For Your House
Weary of Heart
"As one whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you; And you will be comforted in Jerusalem." Isaiah 66:13 Our God is not weak. He is strong and powerful. And yet he is also gentle and tender like a mother hen is to her chicks. He comforts his children like a mother comforts her … Continue reading Weary of Heart
Broken Cord
August 29, 2018: Last night I sat down with paper, pencil and my Bible, and I inquired of the Lord if he would be pleased to give me a song to write. I had not written any for about two years, because I did not have the space needed in order to do that. But … Continue reading Broken Cord
We Will Sing
I think that when things are going well in our lives that it is easy to sing praises to God and to thank him for all his many blessings to us. Yet, when life kicks us and knocks us down; when severe trials come our way; when we are faced with great persecution and rejection … Continue reading We Will Sing
