Self-Infliction

386) A lot of times, our difficulties in life arise from the bad choices we make. Malachi 3:2 tells us the righteous receive healing. Righteous mean “right-ness.” Making God-centered choices will bring healing from our self-inflicted and others-inflicted wounds. Be healed.

Feeling Blue?

385)  Through the years I have found that life goes through “seasons” emotionally. In a given day, you can be happy and/or blue. We all love the positive feelings but how can we navigate the negative? Psalm 119:50 tells us that focusing on God’s promises brings comfort. This enables us to take our focus off

A Misunderstood Peace

382)  I struggle regularly with feeling anxious. This struggle will probably last all my days and yet, I know that God offers me peace. Perhaps peace isn’t just a feeling of calm, maybe it is something accepted by faith. God knows all about me yet He loves, accepts and heals me. There is peace within

Doing Unto Others

372) There will come a day when the eternal books are opened and your life is going to be reviewed. Will God find that you fed and gave drinks to others in need? Did you welcome strangers that crossed your path? Did you provide clothing, nursing and visits to those chained to their misery? These

A Monument – One Full Year

365)  It has been one full year since I began these “minutes with God” reflections and many of you have been with me each day. As Joshua 4:8-9 tells us, it’s important to look back and reflect on God’s work. Could you please take a moment and respond to this reflection telling me what God

Choose Life

364)  John 10:10 tells us that a thief’s motive is to steal from you & destroy you. God’s motive is to give you life; one that is rich and worthwhile. Why give a thief the key to your heart? Give it back to God, Who gave it to you in the first place. Choose life.

Grace-Full

362) Grace is a valuable gift you can give to others or yourself. It means that you “give” something good to someone who doesn’t deserve it. In days where “you must love yourself” is so prevalent, grace is not valued. Beating yourself up is not a prerequisite of grace but a Biblical view of our
