Cast Up A Highway

To celebrate our anniversary on June 25th, I have chosen to repost a blog originally posted on Wednesday, July 25, 2012 

It is not my writing, but a miracle story is too wonderful to let rest in the past. Be encouraged!

The massacre occurred at the Aurora Theater in Colorado. Petra, a victim of t...

Satan has gathered his forces to blast forth in these last days. All who love Jesus are under attack physically, mentally, spiritually. If you are feeling depressed for no apparent reason, confused about ...

Sometimes we think of the Holy Spirit as this invisible spirit without substance and really unknowable. However, this concept totally changed for me at a powerful service we had one Sunday when Chip Brimm spoke! It impressed a fresh awareness in my spirit as he revealed a new perspective of Holy Spirit! His words were: "Holy Spirit is the "muscle" of God"!  Wow!! A...

Did you ever ask yourself this question~

 "Why Am I Important?" Well if you have, you are in good company.

 King David asked the same question: Why do You even care about me Lord? You are so great and I am so small. . . or in David's own words in the ...

My friends, Are you moving into a different time of your life? is it scary? Are you sad? Dear ones, know that just as there are seasons in nature, so do our lives grow from one to the next. Personally, I can share my new advancement ~ into the later years. This sounds like maybe Winter; however, it is actually a new Spring. Comparing our lives to yearly changes in nature, we can see that al...

Psalm 36:5-6 (The Message)...

Psalm 77:16-19 (The Message)


 

Ocean saw you in action, God, 
saw you and trembled with fear; 
 Deep Ocean was scared to death. 
Clouds belched buckets of rain, 
 Sky exploded with thunder, your arrows flashing this way and that.

If you watch TV, at some point you must have seen those TV commercials advertising laundry detergent? See two stained shirts and with XYZ detergent the stains come out in the wash totally gone and "our little boy’s shirt is like new". Well that brought to mind how our life works under Jesus. The other day I was journaling and Holy Spirit convicted me that what I was writing r...

Do you remember, as a child, the eagerness inside on Christmas Eve? Or at the arrival at a much loved vacation place? Or the visit of a special friend? It’s that jump up and down excitement with eyes sparkling and a wide grin splitting the face. That is the feeling inside of me when I think about living with my God face to...

Jesus, for every stripe the whip laid on Your back, every hole the crown of thorns and nails made in Your body, my hea...

A strange dream invaded my sleep the other night. In it I saw Jesus walking down a corridor of people. At the beginning there was light, but the corridor continued into ominous shadow. Voices at the start were happy and excited, but as He continued to walk, the voices before Him changed to murmurs and complaints. As Jesus proceeded, nearby faces contorted wrathfully and curses were called out. Then the voices further along the tunnel became hideous ...

I sat listening to the story of a beautiful young woman who at age 17 was horribly burned over 40% of her body in a chemical accident. Her story of courage and redemption so touched my heart! There she stood with scarred body and face; dreams of being a model and actress gone forever. . .   Perhaps the worldly version of the dream containing surface beauty would never be fulfilled, but where does true beauty exist?

God is so delightful! Here I sit on a rainy morning enjoying my quiet time with the Lord. Suddenly, glancing out the window, my eyes behold huge snowflakes lazily tumbling from the sky. I am distracted as I continue to just sit and watch. God is so good! He delights in blessing us with little joys like this touch of beauty! My heart overflows with love for my Father.

"Spirit." This world is into the “new age” look at spirit and spirit life. The enemy likes to take truth and pervert it. The Bible teaches that God is Spirit and we must communicate with Him spirit to Spirit. This Spirit is special and Is the third person of the Trinity; but we may not fully c...

Are you fearful today? Are you worried? Did you know God wants us to trust Him so we can live the life of freedom that Jesus died to give us, including freedom from fear and worry?

Acts 28:3-6 relates an incident in ...

Lord God, O mighty One Who is more vast than the skies, Your love, like the sun You created, brings light and warmth to us. Your creation reflects You.

I recall camping in the mountains long ago. One night about 4:30 AM the cold woke me. Climbing out of my sleeping bag, I snuggled into a jacket, and headed out to follo...

Watching the mountain climber swinging beneath the overhang, my stomach was in knots of concern for him. Then the camera showed a close up of his face, and it exposed no fear. Despite the thousand foot fall below, his face showed only determination as his eyes searched for the next move. Slowly I watched his body ...

Even though we are living in the last days, days when evil is fighting to conquer the world, we have reason to rejoice! This new year is going to bring God's hands moving in powerful new ways, yes good ways, so long as we remain close to our God in obedience.

With a whimper and a shout the baby enters the world. Chilly and feeling abused, it squirms with a frown on its face. Then a loving touch cleans the child, wraps it securely in a soft warm blanket, and places it in the sweet embrace of its mother. Content now, the ...

The other evening I was fretting over a decision, when I realized it was not that big of a deal. In the great scheme of things, in an eternal perspective, it is a blade of grass in a huge pasture. Not only that, but as I looked out of my window I saw a beautiful bird which reminded me~ God takes care of the birds; He'l...
