Hello Friends and Happy Monday! This is the season for love. I think we use the word love so loosely. Personally, I struggle with Valentine’s Day every year. I love gifts but I don’t think there needs to be a special day to give or receive a gift. There definitely doesn’t need to be a special day to show love to someone. However, I would love a special delivery, from God right about now.
One thing that I have struggled with over the last several weeks is the amount of hate that I am seeing from people. The problem with this type of hate is it resembles more of a GroupThink! I have never in my life been a follower and I won’t start now.
Don’t get me wrong, I have used the word hate many times in my life. For example, I hate brussels sprouts and I hate dirty dishes in my sink. I also hate to clean toilets. But these are only superficial. I believe the hate we are seeing goes way beyond my hate for dirty dishes or cleaning the toilets.
I recently started a Bible study in the book of Proverbs. I want to know more and the book of Proverbs is a great place to start.
God instructs us in Proverbs 1:5, “The wise also will hear and increase in learning, and the person of understanding will acquire skills and attain to sound counsel.”
We are loved
Folks God is giving us a special delivery every day. He sent us His word to live by. Everything we need to know is in the Bible. I don’t know about you but I want to be wise and a person of understanding.
Special Delivery, Love God!
Mark 12:31 states, “The second is like it and is this. You shall love your neighbor as yourself. There is no other commandments greater than these.”
God loves us even when we make mistakes. God loves us so much that he sent His son to die on a cross for our sins. He will always love us.
This is the kind of love that I want to focus on this Valentine’s Day.
I love the lyrics to this song Daystar Shine Down On Me! sung by Jason Crabb!
Here are a few lyrics:
Lord, I ‘ve seen a world thats dying wounded by the master of deceit.
Groping in the darkness haunted by the years of mass defeat.
But when I see you standing near me shining with Compassion in your eyes.
I pray Jesus shine down on me, let your love shine through me in the night!
Special Delivery, Love God!

Happy Monday! I cannot believe we are already in the second week of the new year. It has already been a busy start to the year. Friends, I feel like everyone is facing a storm in this new year. I am learning to put one foot in front of the other.
In Matthew 14: 22-33, Jesus walked on the lake to the disciples. When the disciples saw him, they were afraid. Peter stepped out of the boat and walked on the water. When Peter became afraid, Jesus reached out His hand and caught Peter. Jesus and Peter got back into the boat and immediately the wind died down.
Friends, we can put one foot in front of the other in faith even in the midst of the storm.
I don’t know about you, but I needed this word from God today. You may be in the middle of the storm, have faith, and never give up. Some days we have to just get up, put one foot in front of the other, and say out loud, “no matter how it looks, I am not giving up.” God is for me!

Hello friends! I hope that your Christmas was really great. This year we spent time with our granddaughters so it was amazing. We only have a few more days left in 2020. It seems that everyone wants to rush through the days we have left. However, I believe there is still one more thing to do before the new year!
I do believe that the celebration of Christmas does not have to end here. Christmas is a time to celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior. Even though, I enjoy looking at the Christmas decorations, I also enjoy putting them away.
There were was so many bad things that happened in 2020. Just thinking about it all makes my heart sad. But, there is one more thing to do before the New Year! I believe that Jesus would like us to concentrate on the good.
If you are reading my blog right now, you have so much to be grateful for. We are still here after going through and still going through the worst Pandemic of my life. God is walking beside you and me! Look around at what you have and not wish for what you don’t have.
Before we say Happy New Year, think about all of the good in 2020.
“Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable–if anything is excellent or praiseworthy–think about such things.” Philippians 4:8
Focus on the promises of God! He is always good!
