How many of you would allow a cob spider to continue webbing up a dark corner of your church or temple if you knew it was there and you could see its effects? Probably not many would leave it; gathering dust and dirt because we revere our church or temple, so we want to keep it clean! But that is what we do with God’s temple, our bodies, whenever we allow deep-seated pain or shame to remain in the dark corners of ourselves. We may have chased out the spiders, but the cobwebs

Like so many of us, my life changed dramatically when my family broke apart at a young age. I was separated from most of my family, living through frequent school changes and moves, in and out of the country, for three years; and then I just went into rebellion at fifteen. But, just before my ninth move, I came into possession of a “The Way” Bible and I remember sincerely seeking God and Truth within its pages before being uprooted, yet again. It was a very chaotic time of

Being trapped within the Pain Management System for over fifteen years as a patient and having the hindsight of having worked in the pharmaceutical field before Pain Management became a Retail operation has given me a unique view of the drug problem in this country that is different than the one you usually hear about. I have very little lived experience with illegal drugs, but I have a lot within the healthcare system as a patient and former healthcare worker. I experimen

Having been delivered from over 15 years of Long-Term Opiate Therap y, I believe I’m supposed to share some things about my experience. First, I give God all the Glory, Honor and Praise for preserving my life and delivering me from Bondage to these drugs and doctors 2½ years ago. In my early thirties, I became a Born-again Christian, and my life was content, and I was blessed to be a stay-at-home mom to two young children. I began to have constant pain in my back from a birt

Our lives are like a canvas that God painted a beautiful picture upon and placed in the world for all to see but the world painted over it many times, with different colors and effects. Some good, some bad, all with a different brush… And then Jesus enters in, the Great Restorer of our soul, and He carefully lifts off the Damaged layers and begins to reveal a Unique Masterpiece , seasoned for His Purpose . He smooths over the little flecks of strain and damage to our canvas

I went through a season of my life that landed me in a land of Famine. A Famine of Faith and I remained there for way too long. The Living Waters of Faith only flowed every once and awhile and when they did my thirst was way too easily quenched. A dam had formed from the toxic soup I was feeding my flesh, and it kept those living waters from flowing freely. My Spiritual sustenance was always right there in front of me in God’s Word, but I was only feeding myself sporadically,

The Tracks of Truth are laid out before us. They are the Footsteps of Jesus Christ, the only Son of God who was slain for us. We must look up to see them! We must read the Guidebook to learn discernment to See them. They are unique and only those with a Lens of Grace can see them. Do Not follow the tracks on the ground all around us. They are full of deception and falsehoods. They will lead us to Destruction and Death. But the Tracks of Truth lead to life everlasting and the

You may have heard people say that we are in the midst of a storm. The president even stated that we were in the Calm Before the Storm when he first took office. We are no longer in the calm waters at the center of an eyewall, we are in the back edge where the wind and waves are the most treacherous. There is mutiny within some of our fleet and pirates are all around. The dark storm clouds were roiling all around us but we couldn’t see that far out because we were in the ce

In My Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I am going away to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and welcome you into My presence, so that you also may be where I am. John 14:2 The Bible tells us that Jesus is going to prepare a place for us and our Father in Heaven has many rooms prepared for us. But what exactly have WE done to PREPARE a place for Jesus in o

2019 was a year of epic change and deliverance for me in many ways. This part of my testimony is centered around the anxiety which caused me to bite my fingernails, so bad it messed up my teeth. It may seem superficial but please keep reading… During the first three years following my parent’s divorce when I just turned 12 years old, I became an anxious, person, deep inside. I changed schools nine times within those years, most during the first year. It was a time of chaos, f

God removed the Dimmer Switch I had on my spirit in 2019. He flipped a switch to ON and lit up the bits of myself that remained outside of His Grace. I had kept them hidden from even myself with a Dimmer Switch made of my own sin and shame. My setting was "Dim" and my "Spirit eyes" adjusted to the faded Light. I kept trying to get closer to Him and seeking Him, but my vision was damaged, and I couldn't see clearly. God doesn’t want us to have a Dimmer Switch on our spirit.
