God answers many prayers “at the last moment,” but He’s ALWAYS right on time! In our modern day with all the technology, we are very anxious to have things at our disposal “NOW.” And we want our prayers answered FAST, in the same way we make and serve “instant” mashed potatoes. (I actually liked that stuff when I was young. lol) When circumstances bring us to our knees in prayer… We’re impatient. We’re frustrated. We’re doubtful. We’re fearful. Sometimes we’re angry. We simply do not see the whole picture the way our Heavenly Father is able to see through our circumstances. Some day when we get to Heaven, we will…

My Miracle Baby
I went to the doctor for my sonogram. I was so excited to see if I was having a boy or a girl. The nurse came in and started the sonogram and then got up and left quickly. I reached over and grabbed my mom’s hand… Then, the door flew open and there stood two nurses. The second nurse took over doing the sonogram. I asked, “What is wrong?” They both got up and left the room again. I felt sick to my stomach and thought for sure my baby was dead. In came the doctor with the two nurses. He kept looking and looking at the sonogram and wouldn’t…

The Perfect House Doesn’t Make the Perfect Household
Today I’m sharing with you something that’s been a blessing to me in reading this month… and keep watching… at the end I’m sharing the FREEBIE I have created for you! She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. Proverbs 31:27 kjv The quick take way from my video…. “This house is clean enough to be healthy, and dirty enough to be happy.” The Proverbs 31 Woman had a “People Priority” and a “Family First” order to her responsibilities. Ask “What can I do to lift the load or encourage them to go God’s way?” “How observant am I for the little…

Use What You’ve Got – Let God Do the Rest
A short while back, I read the following Scripture about a widow who owed money to a creditor and was on the verge of losing her own two sons to slavery due to the debt that she could not pay. Can you take a moment to place yourself in this widow’s shoes…and imagine how she felt? How about the desperation of losing her two sons — and she had already lost her husband previously? If you’re a mother, then it’s not hard to imagine the extreme yearning and pain in her heart not to let this hardship come upon her sons. How about the fear? Who would not fear losing…

When It’s Time to Go Home
Guest Post by Lynne Norton, Missionary Wife, Ixmiquilpan, Hidalgo Mexico Having been raised in a Christian home gave me a good start in life, for sure. Church going, wholesome living, singing & laughing were all a part of my upbringing for which I am sincerely grateful. Our life wasn’t a bed of roses, but it was a good one. However, life happens… I can’t recall hearing anyone ever say, “Yup, this is exactly what I imagined my life would be like.” On the contrary, life knocks you about in such a way that you are left feeling afraid, angry, betrayed, and confused about many things. That’s a telltale indication it’s…
