Today’s affirmation is taken from John 1:4: In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. Verse 5 shows our natural reaction to this light “And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.” Can we live but not be alive? In the first three chapters of John this morning I am reminded that there is a huge ... Continue Reading »
Affirmation of God: God is faithful.
How quickly can we turn from God to self? Many days I cringe when writing out these affirmations because of the focus on “I”. One of the basics of “affirmations” is to claim these things in the first person so we take ownership and believe and personalize these character traits of God. However today, as I began to read the scriptures this ... Continue Reading »
Affirmation of God: I believe.
Jesus asked, "Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me?” (John 14:10 NKJ) What’s it gonna be boy yes or no? Ok that was my part but John 14 is making me unusually brief today. God DOES have a sense of humor. You know when your very own mother tells you that your writings are too long and she doesn’t have time to read them. ... Continue Reading »

This God thing and the timing of His living word are amazing in spite of us. If you have just a few minutes please bear with me. Just in the past few days and hours God ... Continue Reading »
Affirmation of God: I proclaim the praises of Him who called me out of the darkness.
Peter says we are a chosen people who should praise Him who called us out of the darkness into a wonderful light. Wonderful and marvelous is this light of God. Today’s affirmation was taken from 1 Peter 2:9: “But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called ...

Affirmation of God: The Lord Jesus Christ Himself and God the Father give me eternal comfort and a wonderful hope.
I was reminded yesterday of a large reason why I have found my purpose in these affirmations. I have been given another set of cd’s from a self help guru who espouses the creation of your dream life through affirmations. After all, that is how I was drawn into this life view some twenty years ago. First of all let me tell you that I am a ... Continue Reading »
