I’m sure you have seen and heard about the devastation in Haiti following the recent earth quake. Our hearts ache for the people. We want to help.
Did you know that Haiti was officially dedicated to Satan in 1791 and rededicated in 1991–the two hundredth anniversary of the event? Haiti is the [...]
Holding up three fingers can remind us of the third commandment. Three fingers can form a W which reminds us of words. The third commandment says, “Thou shalt not take the Name of the LORD thy God in vain.” This deals with our words.
What does it mean to take the [...]
Dear Judy,
Here is section three–Some of God’s Answers to My Prayers.
When I was a teen I needed a white blouse and a pair of black shoes for something I was in
My prayer life as a teenager–it all began when I received Christ as a three year old. I was a pastor’s daughter and the oldest of three children. My mother spent time teaching and training me. In a revival service I went to the altar on my own to receive Christ’s payment for sin. From that time I have talked with the LORD.
I remember sitting/swinging in my tree swing singing to the LORD when I was 3-5. I would sing praises and whatever came to my mind to tell Him. I remember chills running through me at times as I sang my heart to Him. Thus began my journey of prayer. But you wanted to know about the teen years….

Hebrews 10:25 instructs, “Not forsaking the assembling of yourselves together….” The word assembling in this passage is translated from a Greek word meaning Christian meeting for worship (Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible). God is here instructing us to gather regularly for worship. Matthew 4:10 states, “Thou shalt worship the LORD thy [...]
People are gifted at different things and we tend to think that what is easy for us is easy for most. I know a lady who is faithful to send encouraging cards to people. It is difficult for her to understand why everyone doesn’t send cards because she finds it to be extremely [...]
Sometimes it’s good to ask why we do things the way we do them. When I was growing up in a pastor’s home, going to every activity the church offered, helping on the bus, teaching in classes, going to camps, cheering at sports events, I was absorbing ideas about how things are to be [...]
As a full time wife and mother, money is NOT one of my biggest resources. So when I do get some I can immediately think of something to do with it! Are you where I am?
Recently I was thinking of oh so many things I [...]
