Happy Thanksgiving!

I am so thankful that our nation takes a day to honor and thank God for all of His many blessings. Even though this country has its issues and all of us may be struggling with life, we can thank the Lord for family, health, prosperity, favor,  love, friendships, and all of His many blessings! He is so good!!

Happy Valentine's Day!

 Happy Valentine's Day! This picture belonged to my mother-in-law and is one of my favorite scriptures in the Bible. I have it framed and sitting on a table in our bedroom. 

This is a great day to remember and rejoice in the love we have for and from our sweet spouses and children, but let's not forget about the great love we have been given by Jesus! Because of His great love for us, we through faith in Him are born again as a new creation and now have intimacy with the Heavenly Father. He has put His very spirit inside of us and has given us a precious prayer language and all the gifts of the Holy Spirit. These gifts help us and empower us to be effective and powerful witnesses for The Lord! 

Don't let religion rob you of the revelation of how much you are deeply loved AND how much we haven been given in Christ Jesus!
