The book of Job teaches us that we can trust GOD, his purpose, wisdom, and goodness even while we may be going through great suffering or trials. 

Our understanding of our circumstances is limited at times and we should not lean on our understanding but trust that GOD is working out all things for our ultimate good if we are among those who love him and have been called according to his purpose.

Today we are reading from Acts Chapter 10 and part of  Chapter 11. 

This reading is about Peters vision while in a trance like state where he saw something resembling a sheet being lowered from the sky with a variety of animals on it.  

Previously, I had not understood the meaning of this vision for myself. I had been taught it meant that Yehovah GOD changed his previous dietary directives for mankind and we could...

Today we are talking about taking our mask off.
I'm not referring to the mask we began wearing in 2020.
The mask I'm speaking of is the mask we have hid behind for years, the mask of pridefulness.
This mask is how we portray ourselves to others as the person we want them to "think" we are, not the person we truly are.

I am on a journey to find out for myself what GODS word says. Actually read it for myself, to study, and do my best to understand and to live according to what Yehovah instructs me through it. If others want to study along with me, thats great!

I share what I believe to be truths with you from studying I have previously done however, be aware as I continue to study throughout my life, it's possible my understanding of...

I am not a scholar, not a teacher, just someone who is studying The Holy Bible to know and better understand what it says because I realized I was believing a lot of  things just because it was a tradition I had been taught, and honestly I had no idea "WHY"?!

I am used to getting what I want when I want it.

I have lived life assuming everything I need or want will be available to me on a whim. That, every day I'm given life will be the same as the day before it.

However, we all NOW know how quickly and unexpectedly our complete world can change. 

For goodness sake the thing I thought the least about in my wants and needs prior to this time, was toilet paper!, but now it too, has becom...

Surely others must ask themselves this question and like me, desperately seek to have some assurance on the most important part of life which is our death, because life is short but eternity is forever!

I was raised attending and being actively involved in church my whole life. I feel I have tried to be a good person each day of my life by treating others the way I would want to be treated, by helping others when I have the resource...

Because I love to eat (and you can tell that if you looked at me) I want to talk to you about food. So if you will allow me, I will start at the beginning.

I'm not sure exactly how I came to think like I do now about food and food insecurities. In my adult life and spending a few years as a single mother of three we definitely had times that there was little food to choose from and no money to obtain any.

I thank GOD f...

Do you hold any grudge against yourself or someone else?

Merriam Webster Definition:
Grudge: to give, do, or allow (something) in a reluctant or unwilling way: to dislike or feel angry toward (someone) for something.

I tend to internalize and beat myself up for things I've done that are wrong or mistakes I have made, or in areas where I failed at something. I was trying really hard to do well, but sometimes I carry...

Today I want to talk about something that has happened to me many times and maybe it has to you as well.

Have you ever eagerly set out to meet a friend and you genuinely want to find out what's going on with them since you saw them last because you have missed their company, but you also have a desire to have that rendered back to you and them show a genuine interest in you and what you have been up to and get their input or ad...

Today I want to talk about how important it is to choose the right friends. The people we choose to hang out with.

In times past I have spent way too much time caring what other people thought of me and have been guilty of choosing friends by the way they made me feel or because I thought they were cool or they were popular and I had a lot of friends.

I sought attention and self-worth from what others thought of me so much so, that a...

I woke up very early this Saturday morning. I felt as though I needed to spend time alone with GOD, like he wanted to tell me something or for me to do something. It started yesterday morning actually. 

I had prayed that GOD would use me that day to do something meaningful for him. I started the day strong working on a variety of things I had on my to do list for this podcast outreach. But last night as I was about to fall asleep I ...
