Just step out. Come on you can do it, step on out there. What are we afraid of? Must we know the end before we take the first step? It is great to know that no matter where we step we can never travel outside of God’s hearing range. Once again my search for affirmations has taken me back to Psalms where David’s words once again hit me right where I ... Continue Reading »
Affirmation of God: I am thankful for God’s Spirit.
Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. (Matthew 5:3 NASB) I am spiritually bankrupt LORD and am so very happy.

As I prayed this morning for my daily bread of whatever God knew I needed for nourishment I prayed He would feed me the affirmation He intended.

We have to admit we are powerless ... Continue Reading »
Affirmation of God: I present myself to God as being alive from the dead.
Overwhelming, that is what this God thing is. Choose Him and you will not be disappointed. No not disappointed but blown away. This is one of those days where God is overwhelming me. He is in control and He will take you and me where He wants us to be. If we choose to listen, choose Him, He will show us things we have never seen or ... Continue Reading »
Affirmation of God: I prepare my heart for God.
Ridiculous, that is what the word of God is some days. Today is one of them. God has a really good sense of humor and loves to remind us who is in control. I arose early to get in a “quick” affirmation so I could tackle a day filled with many past due activities that are making me nervous. From the Celebrate Recovery lesson 23 “Give” I was ...
