Hope Does Not Disapoint…A Season of Hope

I thought I’d share something I wrote for my other blog…let me know your thoughts.

“Today a new sun rises for me; everything lives,
everything is animated, everything seems to speak to me
of my passion, everything invites me to cherish it.”
Anne De Lenclos

I don’t know what it is about Autumn, October especially, that inspires me so. To [...]

A Continuation on the Subject of Singleness.

I was reading in Elizabeth George’s book, “Loving God With All Your Mind”, this morning. The back cover (and I don’t know who wrote this) says “When we find our thoughts overwhelmed by fear, worry, and depression, it’s dificult to keep our minds focused on truth and joy!” And don’t I know it!  As I’ve [...]

Thoughts on thoughts

During my Bible readings lately, I have been trying to find passages on Godly thinking. The first one I found was Philippians 4: 8:
“Finally brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is [...]

Pride Go’eth Before A Fall…

My internet connection has been fouling up this past week; so my apologies for another tardy post.

Thoughts on Wisdom

Reading Stonerose’s post brought to mind some thoughts I had had at one time about “wisdom from above”. So, I went digging through some of my old notebooks until I had found what I had written down. It was just a few scribbles that I had written while the subject was on my mind but [...]

The Gentleness of Wisdom

“Who among you is wise and understanding? Let him show by his good behavior his deeds in the gentleness of wisdom.”
James 3:13
The gentleness of wisdom. While very beautiful and poetic, what does it mean?
I was quite at a loss as to what my post would be composed of this evening; and so, I took up [...]

Jeremiah 29

One of my favorite verses:
“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will [...]

Hearing God When He Speaks: A Simple Relationship and a Humble Approach

“Our ability to hear God’s voice begins when we reverence Him through simple obedience. That is the basis of the childlike relationship He desires with you and me. Knowing God is not enough; we must fear and obey Him.

Do you want to hear God’s voice? Then you must become like a child, for when the [...]

Content In Your Relationship With Jesus

I really liked your post, StoneRose, about choosing to be happy. I wanted to continue in that thought because it is near and dear to me.
For a very long time in my walk with Christ, I would criticize and chastise myself every time I made the smallest mistake. One thing, no matter how large or [...]

Life Choices; Happiness or Depression.

I thought I would post part two of “Hearing God When He Speaks” today, but I’ve been so busy I haven’t had time to look further into that topic. So I started to think what else I could share, and I was reminded of something that happened today.
I was excited, beyond words, by a very [...]
