What I’ve Learned While NOT Writing
Ten months ago I placed my writing on the altar, realizing that publication had consumed my life and my writing had become an idol. Giving up writing was one of the most painful things I’ve had to do, but I embarked on this not writing journey, without knowing the path God would lead me down.…
Keep Your Eyes on Jesus
As I mentioned before, I spent the weekend locked away in a hotel suite equipped with a living area, kitchen and huge table where I set up my computer. I worked from Friday evening to Saturday night, when I reached my goal of 10,000 and a finished novella. Each night I had gotten to bed…
A Child’s Faith
While doing a Bible study on the Helmet of Salvation this morning, I said something that got a reaction out of my 6 year old that surprised me. I said, “When I became a Christian at 15…” Timmy, “What? You’re a Christian?” My mouth gaps open in unbelief. “You mean you don’t think I’m a…
What’s Jesus Doing in Your Life?
My church has started tht new year off by taking a closer look at Jesus. I’ll be starting a series to share my thoughts on what I’ve gleaned at church. I hope you’ll join me in taking a closer look at Jesus. Look for these posts on Sunday or Monday for the month of January!…
Thank You!
I’m am totally up lifted and encouraged by the comments on this post! Knowing God’s will is hard enough, but stepping out in faith to do what He has called me to do even when it’s not very popular is tough. Several people have really blessed my soul through their kind and generous words, and…
So How was Your Christmas?
Ours was very quiet, though I still stayed busy doing mom things! Christmas Eve we attended church in the morning and then took our 80 plus year old adopted neighbor grandparents to lunch. We are so blessed to have them! They’re like family and our kids have grown up with them and call them grandma…
Who is Jesus?
If you spend any amount of time browsing or reading this blog you know this question is not referring to my fundamental belief that Jesus is the Son of God. So who is Jesus, to you? Is He still a tiny baby in a manger who you think about once or twice a year? Someone…
A Gift From Above
(c) Gina Conroy October 25, 1990 While asking the Lord what I should write for this Sunday, He reminded me of a Chritmas song I wrote over 15 years ago. Though you won’t be able to hear the tune over the internet, may the words reach down deep into your soul! A Gift From Above…
Christmas Version of First Cornithians 13
Not sure who the writer of this is, but wanted to pass it along. If I decorate my house perfectly with plaid bows, strands of twinkling lights and shiny balls, but do not show love to my family, I’m just another decorator. If I slave away in the kitchen, baking dozens of Christmas cookies, preparing…
In Due Time
I received this devotional in my inbox from the daily Tozer devotionals from Literature Ministries International. It came at just the right time for me. Maybe it’s also a good time for you! Trials and Pain: Not Yet “Due Time” But He knows the way that I take; when He has tested me, I shall…
