Dare to be Different

The very fact that Mary Magdalene is mentioned in all four gospels, one can assume, her role in Jesus’ life and ministry was significant. 

The son of God met her in the midst of her mess and everything was different. 

She immediately answered the call to follow the one who changed her life.

Mary dared to be different.

Make Every Moment…

“Was it worth it?” 

Was it worth being taken back to that moment in time where my niece sat in that very room, beautifully singing her love song to Jesus.

Was it worth it, as I reflect on the hope of fellow believers who proclaim my healing when physical healing has yet to be within my grasp. 

Was it worth it, as I think and pray through the sermon that my husband so passionately delivered. A message declaring that Jesus described in the book of John as the Word, is an overflow of God‘s heart.

Delight in the Lord

Whether we are wrestling with grief, anxious thoughts, or simply praising God’s goodness; the Bible is a love letter, written to aid in the fulfillment of our Christian journey.

The concept of discipleship points to the need for Christ-followers to comprehend the various attributes and characteristics of the author, God, spelled out within the text.

Clear the Clutter

I’ve noticed that many of us treat our relationship with Christ in the manner described above. We tidy the areas visible to others, while our closets remain cluttered.

Our actions say, “Lord, you are welcome here but this part of my life is off limits.

Don’t open the secret places of my mind that are overflowing with anxiety or impure motives.

Please steer clear of my hypocrisy and judgment.

I’ll tidy up for you in my Sunday best, but the other six days of the week are mine to fill.”
