Each Moment
My much younger self wished for God to place a billboard outside of my home that would tell me God’s will for my life. The common theme in my desire to know God’s will was me, my and I. How I relate to Saul in this manner.
But God…
Pumpkins have arrived! While Fall has its magical elements, to some this season becomes a burden with plenty of obligations...

"It is in this frame of mind that I opened up 1st Samuel. The Israelites, a people of whom Samuel says “the LORD will not forsake…because it has pleased Him to make them a people for Himself”, have forgotten the law of the LORD. But God! He is patient with His people, showing steadfast love and faithfulness to them. "
“I had it all figured out”
I had it all figured out; the title of my 1st blog was going to be “Let’s Make A Deal.” I’ve been asking the Holy Spirit to fill me with knowledge, so I wrote out every verse from the first week’s lesson on a legal pad. I prayed about it, and decided I was going to share the many times I made a deal with God. But, then, God called me to use what I’d learned from Hannah’s example, and put it into action.

First Day Guidelines for Leaders! We can’t wait for you to share this year’s study
Dear God
The Psalms, which are basically the diary of David are another thing altogether. While David pours out his heart with astonishing honesty, every word he writes is directed to, and for, God — the One who created him, knows him, understands, him, loves him, forgives him and has the power to change and SAVE him!
How One Word Can Change a Life
I was led by a dear friend who prompted us to share a one-word prayer as we parted for the summer. What a simple, but effective way to stay connected and remember one another during the summer break. As the lovely face of one I hold dear comes to mind throughout the day, it’s easy to associate the one word she chose, which I recall and lift her up in prayer. So, although we are not physically together for a few months, we can remain close in spirit.
What I learned this year from Hebrews and I & II Thessalonians
I learned that Jesus, our great High Priest, who is our HOPE
is an anchor for the soul, firm and secure.
He has entered the inner sanctuary, behind the veil.
He ALWAYS lives to intercede.

How to Build an at home Bible Study
Creating a Bible Study might seem overwhelming, but @HOME Bible Study is here to help!

The Mysterious Melchizedek
Who is Melchizedek, and where did he come from?” Some in the study thought he was a pre-incarnate appearance of Jesus Himself (Christophany) and some thought he was a real man. We all agreed he was an enigma! Considering Hebrews Chapter 7 is all about Melchizedek, I decided to dig deeper.
It is all about the Climb
Genesis is a mountain we climb - summiting with breathless expectation to view the vista of creation - then plodding down, knees aching, into the valley of the flood. On repeat we experience the summits and shadows.
“. . . what you say flows from what is in your heart.”
"About six years ago I found myself staying up until 11 p.m. trying to get organized while my husband was traveling for business. Even though I was doing this three or four times a week, I could never catch up! I felt continuously overwhelmed. I was irritable, worried, and anxious. I was not sleeping. I found that my mind was in constant overdrive. I found myself thinking, “This is crazy, and I don’t want to live this way! There has to be something better!”
Why do we need Bible Study?
“Thus the reason I need Bible study. Bible study not only helps me stay in His Word daily (and I NEED His Word daily), but it also gives me a group of fellow believers who can hold me accountable and who can help me in my walk with Christ. “
Why is the Bible important?
“The Bible surpasses all other books as to authority, antiquity, literature, and popularity.” Unlike historical books, the Bible points to our future as well as our beginning. The authors of the Bible were directed by God the Holy Spirit (2 Peter 1:20-21). Reading the Bible is a form of worship. The Bible is the Word of God!
He is Always There
Life gets busy, and sometimes we fail to fix our thoughts on Jesus. Whenever we take the time to focus on him, the day is better! If you look for Him, you will see that He is always there, waiting for us to look to Him.
