WHEN HOPE DIES; HOPE WILL ARISE

WHEN HOPE DIES; HOPE WILL ARISE

  The question is where does our HOPE lay? As we live our lives, we face many storms and strong currents that pull us down, over and over again. Yet, we are back on top again riding along the waves that come. We learn that we do not have to live in fear, but to keep our eyes on Him who will pull us out of the torrential waters into a safe haven with Him; Who is the Lord of all, Jesus!
  Somethings in our lives, that have taken precedence over what God intended for us to prosper must die. Sometimes, we just face another END to a chapter in the book of our lives. Also, things that are staples in most people's lives are not be in ours and it is taken away. All of this is where we as humans tend to place our hope's in. 
  But let me tell you; there is a HOPE that is ALL POWERFUL, ALL PRESENT and ETERNAL and that is our Lord Jesus Christ! He had to die first, to then bring us ALL this amazing HOPE for our lives. Let things go, let people go by surrendering them all into the Hands of our Savior. Here you will find perfect peace and HOPE!
  Happy Resurrection Day to all! May you discover the HOPE that arose!
"And now, Lord, what do I wait for and expect? My hope and expectation are in You."  Psalm 39: 7
"Be strong and let your heart take courage, all you who wait for and hope for and expect the Lord!"  Psalm 31: 24

"The Lord is my portion or share, says my living being (my inner self); therefore will I hope in Him and wait expectantly for Him." Lamentations 3: 24

FATHER'S DAY GIFT IDEAS FOR CHURCHES

7 FATHER'S DAY GIFT IDEAS FOR CHURCHES Out of desperation creativity is birthed. I hope to add on to this post through the years. Churches love to give to dad's on Father's Day; sometimes this can be redundant and or expensive. A few short years ago we stepped out of the Evangelistic & Pioneer work to take a small church that is just great and out of the box. So, of course budget is minimal and I am 'it' when it comes to holiday decor and gifting ideas & doing them. The 4 gifts that my family and I put together are as follows:                       POPCORN/CANDY/MOVIE  We placed microwave popcorn, candy bar and a special Father's Day poem inside a popcorn bag.  FRAMED ART FROM LOCAL ARTIST/MINISTER  (Rev. Paul Gray)  MADE THIS INTO A FRAME & ADDED A PEN.                                             MINI GIFTS WRAPPED IN A HANKIE Pocket knife, Voice of the Martyrs Pendant  & candy! Al

LET US TRUST THE PROCESS OF PRUNING

Did you ever read this verse in John 15:2 and think, "that's extreme, can't we just hold onto these extra branches that grew once and bore amazing, fruit?" I have definitely !   Then life happens! In that life, we make a decision to dig deeper in our relationship with Jesus Christ. Yet, as we do, we face obstacles (or that's what we called them) that challenged us to trust Jesus to do what He wills in our lives.  I believe this place is a milestone in the timeline of our lives. Will we continue to walk ever so close to the Lord, realizing as we do, He will prune us? Will we desire to be producers of His fruit and life flow through us? Many of us realize that this means more obstacles, cuts, bleeding, times of dormancy and simple hurt.  This is when the milestone comes; will we accept this pruning and be fruitful or just become branches that become brittle, and ragged?  A lot of questions to ponder, but I feel God wants to use each and everyone of His children in o

Thank You For Asking

(c)Daneille Gray Snowden 2022 Today, I was deeply touched in my heart when a dear friend asked how my husband was. I did not mention it first, out of the blue; she asked about something dear to my heart. This wasn't the first time as she has  asked about different matters in my life several times. May I tell you how that made me feel? It made me feel cared for, loved and set back how someone cares intensely about me and my life. How often do you personally experience such care and interest from others? And, as I ask myself this too; how often do we reach out and ask others how they are? When people as a whole reach out in such a way, we see the creation power of God as hearts are connected to one another and a strong foundation is beginning to be built for a lasting relationship.  I love it when I hear conversations in church  or in my home when I  listen to their questions of wanting to learn of others situations, experiences, needs and even joys. The questioner is totally focused
