PRAISE & PRAYER PROMPT ••• Have you ever heard the phrase, “Live life on purpose?” It’s one of those inspirational quotes that sound really great, and we would probably share it on Facebook.

12.29.18 Praise & Prayer Prompt: Friends Turned Family

PRAISE & PRAYER PROMPT ••• I’m an only child but I’ve been blessed to have many good friends. Some of whom are so close, that the term “friend” is not really appropriate. They are family.

PRAISE & PRAYER PROMPT ••• As I was reading my Bible this morning, I came across a verse that made me do a double take. In 2 Kings 9:20, when Jehu killed Joram and Ahaziah, it says, “The lookout reported, ‘He has reached them, but he isn’t coming back either. The driving is like that of Jehu son of Nimshi—he drives like a maniac.’” I’ve … Continue reading 12.28.18 Praise & Prayer Prompt: Jesus, Take the Wheel

11.25.18 Praise & Prayer Prompt: Planning

PRAISE & PRAYER PROMPT ••• Last week, I bought a new planner for the coming year. I’m one of those people who wrestles back and forth with paper versus electronic calendars. As a computer nerd who thrives being behind a screen, everyone assumes I’m all about the computer calendar and I admit — when you need to share calendars, it’s the best option. But I’m … Continue reading 11.25.18 Praise & Prayer Prompt: Planning
