It’s sometimes surprising what God puts on my heart to write. I know very little about Indigenous People, and if at all, perhaps Aborigines, or Native Americans. And still, it’s limited knowledge. Now comes the tricky part; where does God want to lead in this post? We are all human beings, but many have livedContinue reading “Indigenous Peoples”

Pieces of Forgiveness
I have struggled personally with the act of forgiveness. Some resentment harbored over 30 years of my life. Imagine. Withholding forgiveness to another human being when Jesus forgives ME every day, sometimes many times a day. I am not without sin. How did it ever become my place to judge the actions of another? ItContinue reading “Pieces of Forgiveness”
Journey to Redemption
Easter Sunday has arrived in many parts of the world; where I live, it’s tomorrow. The past few days have been incredibly moving for me. Having grown up in a rather sedate Lutheran church, there were no “stations of the cross,” Good Friday services or much reflection on the sanctity of Holy Week. We recognizedContinue reading “Journey to Redemption”
Scripture Pieces
Matthew 5:6-10 spoke to me in my morning bible study. It is half of the Beatitudes (the beginning focus on humility, mourners and the meek and lowly). It continues on to “those who are happy.” The entire book of Matthew seems to be a guide — how to live a life that is pleasing toContinue reading “Scripture Pieces”
Pieces of Love
1 Corinthians 13 If I had the gift of being able to speak in other languages without learning them and could speak in every language there is in all of heaven and earth, but didn’t love others, I would only be making noise. If I had the gift of prophecy and knew all about whatContinue reading “Pieces of Love”
Pieces of Grace
The grace of God is always attainable, it’s nothing we have to do or say to make happen, it’s part of the many spiritual gifts available to us, “JUST” because our Father loves us. Acts 20:24 However, I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race and complete theContinue reading “Pieces of Grace”
Answered Prayer Piece
Our prayers are answered in God’s time. Be encouraged; God wants us to be happy, but oftentimes what we think will make us happy and what actually will, are two different things. Establishing a relationship with your Father, reading His word, aligning your life with His, makes asking the prayers and receiving answers that coexist,Continue reading “Answered Prayer Piece”
The testimony piece
Today I’d like to share part of my testimony with you, which – until this morning, I didn’t realize I had! God doesn’t really work in mysterious ways, He reveals what we can handle! The biggest source of healing in my life, has been emotional. All of my broken pieces have been soldered back together;Continue reading “The testimony piece”
Pieces of Harmony
The world is a place filled with violence, unrest, sorrow and anger. It is also a place filled with beauty, love and peace. How can we ever find a healthy, spiritual balance? HARMONY. c : internal calm : tranquility Psalm 32:7 You are a hiding place for me; You, Lord, preserve me from trouble, YouContinue reading “Pieces of Harmony”
A piece of humility
Humble pie some call it. I’d venture to say we could all use a slice every now and then. Galatians 5:23 ……humility, and self-control. There is no law against such things as these. Colossians 3:12 You are the people of God; he loved you and chose you for his own. So then, you must clotheContinue reading “A piece of humility”
