Proverbs 10:12 says "Hatred stirs up conflict, but love covers over all wrongs.

This proverb is an example of antithetical parallelism in Hebrew poetry. "Hatred" is contrasted with "love." The "stirring up" is contrasted with a "covering over." And "conflict" is what hatred is promoting, whereas love seeks to make peace by covering "all wrongs." Hatred looks for a fight and refuses to smooth things over, but love desires peace between warring parties and will not be involved in…

People seek love in many places. When we love someone we have so many feelings and emotions for that person. When we fall in love we feel loved, happy, valued, accepted, honored, wanted and protected and we want this person to be in our life all the time and we will reach to the point that we can not live without them. We think of them all the time and we trust them to share our feelings. This person becomes our entire world and we long and desire to be with them. We love them with all our…

You are loved and never forsaken

Sowing and Reaping

When Beverly, the leader of our bible study group, asked, ‘does God smile?’ I realized that I had

never considered this concept, but naturally, her question sparked my curiosity.

We know that God is a Spirit so how can He smile? We learned, also, from the Old Testament,

that He expressed the emotions of displeasure,…

 Hello My wonderful friends. As I am always busy sharing the word of God with the world. Please let me also take time to share with you my love for you also. We that are born of the Spirit have also learned about a deep love for each other. We did not learn this love for each other on are own, but Christ in us has showed us about this love. We have all felt it. And as we are all in the family of God, and having…

I Imagine The Eyes of Jesus

I imagine the eyes of Jesus,…

Today as you go through your day what is your vision telling you? Do your eyes seem to be blurry in seeing others? The guy who cut you off in traffic today was really helping cloud your vision right? The clerk in the store with the wild haircut, how did she appear to you? Your husband/ wife now there is someone who can really give you vision difficulty. Did your eyes focus this morning on Jesus or on you this morning?

From the moment we get up in the morning our eyes start…

Matt 10:25 25 Students are to be like their teacher, and slaves are to be like their master. And since I, the master of the household, have been called the prince of demons, the members of My household will be called by even worse names! Have you ever had one of those days? It does not brighten our day when we know others have bad days also. Yet, we are given verses like Heb 2:18 Since He Himself has gone through suffering…

Inexplicably, my presence invokes your smile

in instances of pure and uncontained joy.

Can You Really Love Me So?



I dare not ask this question aloud -

fearful that you won't confirm our union.



Being together is magical for me;

each shared moment illuminates my life

with Hope's brightest light.



I dare not ask this question aloud -

Can You Really Love Me So?



Our natural chemistry is a catalyst,

igniting passion that comes…

Unmerited favor of God

flows continually

and without interruption,

when you are a child of His.

His Love for us is...

Unquestionably unconditional;

however, His Grace is not.

Grace and Love are not equivalent -

We must not endeavor

to confuse these concepts.

God's Word is always steadfast

and is an unmovable truth.







Author Notes:

The standard…

Oh, my Lord...

Why would You love me?



Your greatness exceeds human comprehension

and Your wealth surpasses the Earth's riches.

In Your mind's eye, my life has been viewed

and my judgment awaits its sentencing.



Before my existence, Your Blood was cruelly shed -

spilled for my sins, both conceived and committed.

You made Yourself vulnerable to man's hatred

for saving flawed souls, such as myself.



To leave the comfort of Your heavenly…

As I meditate on, Matt 6:33 33Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and He will give you everything you need. And, I read over “The Sermon on the Mount.” Jesus was teaching in Matt 5:17“Don’t misunderstand why I have come. I did not come to abolish the law of Moses or the writings of the prophets. No, I came to accomplish their purpose. They did not know it yet but, this was/is their Messiah. By…

Ps 147:3-5,11 .

3He heals the brokenhearted

and binds up their wounds.

4He determines the number of the stars

and calls them each by name.

5Great is our Lord and mighty in power;

His understanding has no…

Start children off on the way they should go and even when they are old they will not turn from it. Proverbs 22:6

This may or may not come as a surprise to anyone but, the enemy does not care about feelings or emotions. In so far as, not wanting to hurt or offend another. It only knows we do. And, it has used this against many of late. I am not able to speak for anyone else, only myself. I know my heart, and I have said it again and again, “if I have offended someone, I have and will always invite them to share that information with me.” To many times of late, have I allowed the enemy room, so I would…
