Do You Live the Word or Leave It on the Page?

In one of those WWJD moments, ask yourself if Jesus lived the Word or left it on the scripture page. Pretty easy answer because Jesus was the living Word of God. He lived what he preached. Now, ask yourself Continue reading “Do You Live the Word or Leave It on the Page?”

Sandy Prayers

Short and sweet…

I pray for all those displaced by the storm Sandy. Please, Lord, shine your light down on all those who have been physically, emotionally, and/or financially impacted by this terrible storm. Help your children regroup and rebuild, physically and mentally.

We still don’t have power and heat, but that is a minor inconvenience. People who have trees on top of their houses, flooding, and businesses closed/lost, need your prayers. Please help by joining in prayer and asking others via email, twitter, blogs, whatever to join in prayer.

Thanks and blessings!!!
