The One Thing

In my life, I have seen miracles - so many that in no way could I ever not believe in the love of an all-embracing, all powerful, Creator God.

I have witnessed and participated in miracles of healing, dead-raising, deliverance, and the power of prayer. I have seen people changed for good and forever. I have seen the sweet miracle of people set free from shame and torment. I have seen the love of Papa God wake a person up to who they truly are as a son and daughter of a Father who loves them no matter where they are in life.

I have been the recipient of that love.

And I have been a teacher in hopes of helping others see what I see and know what I know.

And this all boils down to one thing:

God is good. He is really good.

Psalm 100:5 - For the Lord is always good and ready to receive you. He's so loving that it will amaze you - so kind that it will astound you.

June 27 - His Sun Shines Upon All

He says to me: "It's going to be okay!"

As a mountain girl now living in a big city, I have been encountered twice by people I'm not used to. It is drawing out a side of me that I thought I had dealt with. How do I respond to their needy requests? Well, I didn't do so well. I responded from fear I think - when I really needed wisdom for discernment. Who do I help? When should I be kind? When do I deny them to protect myself? I know I am to always love and be compassionate. I'm still working on this! Today, God is giving us all wisdom on how to love better and also wisdom on how to discern His heart in a situation.

Matthew 5:44-46 - But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? (NIV)

Matthew 5:45 - This is what God does. He gives his best––the sun to warm and the rain to nourish––to everyone, regardless...(The Message).

James 1:5 - If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.

April 27 - A Good Day For A Healing Miracle!

Today, step into your healing. God is powerfully present to heal you – physically, and inside, too! Ask him. Find someone to pray with you in the name of Jesus the Healer.

Luke 5:12 - 13: One day while Jesus was ministering in a certain city, He came upon a man covered with leprous sores. When the man realized it was Jesus, he fell on his face at Jesus' feet and begged to be healed, saying, "If You are only willing, You could completely heal me!" Then Jesus reached out and touched him and said to him, "Of course I am willing to heal you, and now you will be healed!" Instantly the leprous sores were healed and his skin smooth!

My prayer for you, my reader! Be healed in Jesus' Name!!! Amen!

February 13 - Miracle of Provision

Miracles are all around today. For you, it is a miracle of provision being poured out without you having to pay.

Psalm 145:16 - When You open up Your generous hand, it's full of blessings, Satisfying the longings of every living thing. (The Passion Translation)

January 11 - Miraculous Life

In the mountains there is a natural phenomenon called alpenglow. At sundown in winter, on very cold, clear evenings, a precious rosy glow colors the snowy peaks. Peace fills my soul when I witness this and helps me remember there is so much more to my life than my immediate worries. Like the alpenglow, your life is a miracle that helps someone else see their life differently. Today, you will understand this in a new way.   

Genesis 2:7 - Then the Lord God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.
