What is the greatest gift someone could give you?-Writing Prompt
Well considering we just celebrated Christmas I would have to say God’s gift to us. John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” Christ was and is the greatest gift that could be given to us.…

Food and Fortune
This weekend has been a bit surreal for me. After the past year and being so far away from the man I love yet haven’t seen face to face; God is working in our lives. It may be separately until we can be together; but God knows best and His timing is always best. In…

Star of Wonder
Day 25 was Christmas Day. The Purpose of Christmas is so that We Could Have Courage. Through the years this has been a struggle for me. Growing up in Church and having a Music Ministry was nourishing for me; it never felt like work or a burden. It was my ministry and such a passion…

Star of Wonder Day #24
The Purpose of Christmas… To Bring Us to God… was today’s topic. Christ had been to earth in His supernatural body at different times. Angela mentions Abraham sitting and eating with three men one being called Adonai. The fiery furnace who do you think was the fourth body? However, being born from Mary’s womb he…

Devotional Day #23
Today’s topic was bringing Us to God. I love these Greek words and the meanings that clarifies some of the terms and words used. The phrase monogenes is what Angela is talking about in the beginning of this lesson. A misunderstanding and confusion of a root word. So monos means only and gennao to beget,…

Devotional Catch-Up Again
Wow so because of some Christmas excursions and appointments and life I am putting these together. Both are heavy topics. None of the Herod’s in the Bible were any good, but this particular one is despicable in so many ways. Although Herod Antipas beheading John the Baptist is in the same atrociousness. Back to this…

Devotional Day # 19 Closer to Christmas Each Day
Today the topics are the Shepherds and the Angels. I was just as amazed that Israelites in the year Christ was born had really very few sheep. There were so many mentions of lambs and sheep and their shepherds in scripture. Shepherds were the poor of the social ladder yet the news of Christ’s birth…

Day #16
The forerunner of Christ is how I have always heard him described as being. Today Ms. Hunt also characterizes him as a herald. What things that would happen to John would also happen to Christ himself. John knew why he was here though. Some people don’t understand their purpose as fully as he did. He…

What skills or lessons have you learned recently?-Writing Prompt
All year long a few lessons have been reiterated in my life. As you all know, I am in a very long-distance relationship. What I have noticed almost from the beginning is how deliberate it is. How specifically God allowed both of us to make decisions that could not have been made without painstakingly intricate…

Day 15 Star of Wonder
She most definitely delivered an uplifting lesson today. How incredible to be the first human being that God sends His angel to after the 400 Silent Years? Instead though, Zechariah like Sara, back in Genesis at her old age didn’t know how to believe what was said. Why do we tend to see with our…
