Jesus Stepped Forward
There are two incidents in the gospel of John that so clearly convey the singleness of focus and purpose of Jesus. He was walking directly toward the cross – each step carefully calculated to bring Him there. The first incident is found in John 6:15. “Jesus, knowing that they intended to come and make Him […]

When You Can’t Find God
Have you ever felt like you just can’t find God? You’re not alone. Job had that same struggle. Job had a lot of things to complain about, but in Job 23:3 we hear the real anguish of his heart. “If only I knew where to find God…” In the midst of Job’s suffering he wanted […]

A Change in Lifestyle
Lisa joined our family at the age of 14. Everything was new and different for her, and even though those differences were good, they were still foreign to what she had known before. Somehow we needed to find a way to ease Lisa into our family. Our lifestyle is even farther removed from God’s than […]

The Potential for Greatness
I’ve always wanted to be really good at something. If only I could weave the most intricate fabric, bake the best sticky buns, or produce the best quilt. But, above all, I wanted to be the best mother ever – the one whose children would all “rise up and call her blessed.” I’ve enjoyed weaving […]

The Desire of My Heart
For me it began at the age of eight at a little red table decorated with nursery rhyme decals. I placed a blank piece of paper on the table, thoughtfully picked up a #2 pencil, and began my first book. It bore the lofty title When Revival Comes, inspired by a passion for revival that […]

The Sweet Side of Suffering
A Very “Mary” Christmas!
The story of Mary and Martha is not usually associated with Christmas, but the Lord used that familiar story to teach me an important Christmas truth when I read it recently in my quiet time. It was the word “distracted” that struck me. I don’t think the Lord minded that Martha was preparing a meal […]

Good News!
Do the headlines ever scare you? It can be very unsettling – even frightening – to read a newspaper or listen to the evening news. More and more parts of our world are in turmoil and these are definitely days of “wars and rumors of wars.” When you hear Christians discussing world events – especially […]
