Because sometimes I need a reminder too.. And so I go back and dig through my blog archives
I’m Not a Good Christian
I was thinking of how often we use the term : "good Christian". It's become so cliche. "She's a good Christian woman". "He's a good Christian". Are they even authentically a Christian? Is there a good Christian? Is there a bad Christian? One implies the other. (Honestly, the term Christian is used incorrectly at times …

The ME God Sees
When did I grow up? I'm pretty sure that I still think I'm like 20 something. Until I look in the mirror. Or wake up with an ache. Or somebody that must be not much younger than me says "Mrs. Heather" or "yes ma'am." Maybe it's because in my 40s (41 to be exact), I'm …

Objects In Mirror May Be Closer Than They Appear
3 years ago exactly, I first published this post. Maybe somebody needs it today.
You probably are wondering why in the world I chose the title above. Truth is, I didn’t. In fact, I woke up around 3 A.M. and God gave me this title. So, here we go.
Never say never. The “objects” that you are seeing occur in other people’s lives can very easily occur in yours as well. I had a vision of a mirror with many different words written on it. Picture it with me:
SIN. LOSS. BETRAYAL. HURT. FEAR.
SIN…ADDICTION…IDOLATRY…GREED..GOSSIP…HATRED…SLANDER
ADDICTION…LUST, EXCESSIVE SPENDING, OVEREATING, ALCOHOL ADDICTION, DRUG ADDICTION, PORNOGRAPHY, ADULTERY and the list goes on and on.
The objects in the mirror can be closer than they appear.
Closer than they appear to you. Closer than they appear to others.
They all are a part of the battle we are in..against Flesh. SPIRITUAL WARFARE. Satan wants us to fail. He wants us to be separated from God.
Ephesians 6:11…

Choosing My Word
Each year for probably the past 3 or 4 years, I've prayed for one word that God would give me. A word that HE wants me to focus on for an entire year. Notice. I did not say a word that I wanted to focus on. Let's be real. If I chose my word, let's …

The Beautiful Remembering Kind
"Leave behind footprints in concrete not footprints in sand that wash away..." ~Heather Dawkins A thought that came to me the other day. I was on the treadmill. Provoking thoughts usually come to me at the strangest times. While mopping or vacuuming or exercising usually. That might provide some insight into why there have been …

Dear Younger Me

And Give Us Thankful Hearts
I received a message.. "Do you remember what Daddy said for Grace?" MY mind started reeling. Repeating it over in my head.. Again and again. Was it this? Wait, was it that? Then I finally got it. As close as we can remember. He's in heaven now. We are left with memories. …

BEAUTIFUL GRACE
I lost it the other morning. Like from 0-60 in 5 seconds lost it. My poor husband was the victim. He informed me of an important matter and I took it as one more thing added to my plate or stack of plates. They all came unbalanced and toppled to the floor. I have 5 …
