Last updated on: November 4, 2024 at 12:47 pm By Kathy King

“God specializes in using ordinary people to do extraordinary things.” Chip Ingram Tuesday is a pretty big day in America. I hope, no, I pray that we know the next president quickly with a peaceful transfer. Tomorrow many believers will be fasting and praying for the country. It seems as if crazy has ruled for many years now. Tempers are short, food costs are high, the world is on fire, and we need some blessed relief from the chaos.... Read more

As The World Continues To Turn Let Music Be Your Solace

Last updated on: November 4, 2024 at 9:16 pm By Kathy King

“Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.” Maya Angelou The study of music has shaped my entire life Since the ripe young age of about 8, I have had music lessons.

The Insignificant Is Significant To God

Last updated on: October 16, 2024 at 6:01 pm By Kathy King

“Little by little, a little becomes a lot.” Tanzanian Proverb Unless you just completely avoid the news, there have been some pretty big names resigning in the past few months from varying positions. I did a little search online and just in the state of Texas, 8 pastors have resigned for several different sins that they committed. Also, a big rapper was arrested for various and sundry things. There is almost complete silence in the town of glittering lights and... Read more

Last updated on: October 13, 2024 at 10:35 pm By Kathy King

“Mercy is never cowardly. Mercy is strength. It takes courage to be merciful in a world like this.” Sophia Slade Yesterday my husband and I read a devotional concerning loving mercy. I found the topic so interesting that I decided that I would write about this concept. What is mercy?

Living A Life Of King Josiah’s Reforms

Last updated on: October 11, 2024 at 4:30 pm By Kathy King

“Prior to the reign of the godly King Josiah, the law of God had been lost in the temple for many years. Has the same thing occurred among us? Has the evangel been lost among Christians?” Paul Washer I’ve found myself having a little trouble sleeping lately. 2 sons deployed will do that to you.

Humility Is Not Spineless Humility Is Strength

Last updated on: November 4, 2024 at 9:16 pm By Kathy King

Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it is thinking of yourself less. C.S. Lewis Humility. What does that mean? Humility: freedom from pride and arrogance. Recently I was a captive audience of a podcast. In the last few weeks and months I’ve tried to limit how much podcasts I consume. They were causing me to have a root of bitterness in a very real way. As I sat in the room trying not to pay attention, I could... Read more

Why Do We Need Oil In Our Spiritual Lamps?

Last updated on: October 6, 2024 at 4:47 pm By Kathy King

“What we need is to love without getting tired. How does a lamp burn? Through the continuous input of small drops of oil. What are these drops of oil in our lamps? They are the small things of daily life: faithfulness, small words of kindness, a thought for others, our way of being silent, of looking, of speaking, and of acting. Do not look for Jesus away from yourselves. He is not out there; He is in you. Keep your... Read more
