Ephesians 5:1 the source of today’s affirmation states: Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. (NKJ) I struggle with that invisible switch. That switch that flips so quickly between imitating God and being a jerk. From holy to hellish in a flash. The switch that flips from complete darkness to light. Which side of the switch is ...

Affirmation of God: God is with us.
He is here you know. Can you sense it? Do you know it? More importantly do you know Him? If we don’t know Him is it because He is not here? For two days it has been resounding in my head that God is with us. For today’s affirmation I wanted to personalize it and remind us to say that “God is with me”. Each day I want to remind myself that God is ... Continue Reading »
Affirmation of God: I tell what great things God has done for me.
Ok God I get it. Sitting in the woods over the weekend I opened my bible to Mark 5. There Mark tells the story of Legion. The demon possessed man who lived among the tombs with his unclean spirit. We were told “no one could tame him.” “When he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and worshiped Him.” Mark 5:6 NKJV. Here is a guy filled with many demons, ... Continue Reading »
Affirmation of God: I can provide comfort to others because of the comfort I have received from God.
Don’t you love it when you find a scripture that says something you just can not verbalize?

God YOU are so good and ... Continue Reading »
Affirmation of God: I give thanks to the LORD and praise His name.
What do we have to be thankful for? Let us count the ways. In the Celebrate Recovery Lesson 22 on Gratitude John Baker recommends we create a Gratitude List. First of all, what are we thankful to God for? Can we offer prayers of gratitude to the God who created us? This CR lesson on gratitude took me to Psalm 100. There are only five verses to ...

Affirmation of God: My ears had heard of you but now my eyes have seen you.
And Job said: "My ears had heard of you but now my eyes have seen you.” (Job 42:5) NIV Job is saying this to GOD. Yes, I had heard OF you BUT NOW I have seen you. The light bulb has gone off; the blinders have been taken away. Bear with me for a second but I beg to ask you can it be this SIMPLE to see God? Yes, so many of us say we don’t see or ...

Affirmation of God: The LORD almighty is with me.
Ahhh, how comforting to know that the LORD Almighty is with us. Can you feel the power and the peace? No? There are times when we don’t feel it and then there are times our heart is bursting and we are full of His power. Do you think whether we feel it or not changes the reality of whether God is there or not? For some reason, my mind always goes ... Continue Reading »
