We ALL know the children’s song “Jesus loves me”! We probably can’t even count the number of times we have sung that song throughout our lifetime . . . 100 times? 200? 1000? More? Jesus loves me this I know.For the Bible tells me so.Little ones to Him belong.They are weak, but He is strong. Yes . . . Jesus loves me.Yes . . . Jesus loves me.Yes . . .

Twilight – To read/watch or not?

September 25th, 2009 | 5 Comments

One of the bloggers I occasionally follow recently posted a question to her readers that I was definitely interested in. I was looking forward to reading everyone’s comments about this topic – a controversial one within the Christian community (We have alot of “controversial topics” – don’t we? Jesus himself was controversial in His time too!). It was on the topic of the books and movie – “Twilight”. Here’s her post on Praise and Coffee. Below is my response to her query. Don’t be afraid to go DEEP! Lori 🙂 I’ve been reading the GREATEST love story ever!! I can’t get enough of it! It is full of mystery, wars, lust, adultery, betrayal, miracles, death, and more! Have you read it?! . . . If not – … Read entire article »

He wants to hold us close – to let us not just “know” that His heart beats for us – to just “know” that He loves us (“Jesus loves me this I know – for the Bible tells me so”) . . . . but He wants us to FEEL His love for us – to FEEL His heart beating for us.

Fast & Pray for our Nation, Muslims & the President

You may already be aware, but just in case you were not – I wanted to pass on this info. My heart has been heavy for the past couple days after hearing about this. I can feel the urgency to pray. I can’t sit silent. On Friday 9/25/09 Muslims will converge on Washington DC’s mall for a national day of prayer. Please pray about this. Please read what Lou Engle, Shirley Dobson, Tony Perkins and others had to say on Lou’s website – The Call. Hearing what President Obama has done (in staying silent for the National Day of prayer, but being very vocal and encouraging about Ramadan) just grieves my heart. He is on my heart and in my prayers as well . . … Read entire article »
