My Greatest Lesson
Colossians 3:3 says, “For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.” Our security and satisfaction are found in our Savior. We no longer belong to this world, and our hope is found in eternity. As a mother, my greatest desire is that my children will be in eternity with me, so I stress to them the importance of eternity and focus my prayers on their eternal destination, but I have to ask myself, “Am I missing something?” In Colossians 3:2 Paul says to set our mind
My Nineveh
And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you. Ephesians 4:32 For a week I have been dealing with my Nineveh.

I Saw His Shadow
Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation? Hebrews 1:14 I recently had a dream from the Lord. I don’t always remember my dreams but his one I remember it all and it was very vivid to me. This is how I know that it is from the Lord. In my dream, I was walking down a road and it became very dark ahead of me. I didn’t want to walk into the darkness because of fear. I turned to go back and as I was walking; I could
