Facebook – I am a "Friend" of God!

February 28th, 2010 | Add a Comment

Today in church we were singing the song “I am a friend of God”. I started smiling as I thought about the term “friend” and what it has come to mean in today’s society. In fact, “un-friend” was one of the most popular (new) words in 2009. Why? Because of the social networking site Facebook. Are you a part of the Facebook community? At first I wasn’t so sure I wanted to join (I never did get into MySpace) – but then once I joined, I was tickled pink to find not only my current friends and family, but friends all over the world and America – from my time overseas in YWAM (Youth With A Mission), high school, junior high (in sunny FL) – and even … Read entire article »

Tired? Weary? Pink Dandelions?!

I just wanted to share a private conversation I had with God back on Dec. 26th, 2009. It’s an honest picture of how I was feeling that day – hiding nothing. The reason I am willing to share it with you today is because it was encouraging me even more today – and I thought that it might encourage you! I hope so! None of us are perfect – but God is – and I’m thankful that He will take all of me – and give me all of Him in return! 🙂 Take a refreshing sip today! L 🙂 L – Happy Birthday Jesus (a day late)!! Ok . . . so I know it probably wasn’t the exact date. … Read entire article »

Faith & the Eyes (tears) of the Lord

February 16th, 2010 | Add a Comment

Many times, as I am waking up (right when my alarm clock goes off) – I will hear something being said – in my dreams, in my spirit, in my mind. Today it was clear as can be – “Now Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.” (Hebrews 11:1). Initially this caused me to think “oh no. What is God going to take away or have me do that will require a lot of faith?!” But then I decided to ask my Daddy above instead! . . . He didn’t really tell me . . . nothing specific anyways. But later in my time with Him, He did tell me some other things – … Read entire article »

Shifting my armies – Big battle coming

February 12th, 2010 | Add a Comment

I have been feeling strongly lately that I am supposed to share this word now. In a conversation with God back on October 16th, 2009 – I was asking Him about certain prophetic words that had been coming out about attacks on the US. This is what I feel He told me to write down . . . Hear me on this Lori. There IS coming a day that will be painful – not only for the United States, but other nations as well. This is not about the U.S., or about the other nations. It’s about me. There is a war going on that you cannot see, that has been escalating for years now. It … Read entire article »

Pull back the curtains!

I feel like God wants me to share with you a recent conversation with Him (2/4/10). This is a word – not only for us as individuals – but for the church as a whole. Here it is . . . L – Ok God. Here I am – ready to write. What did you want me to write? What did you want to say? G – Listen carefully. What do you hear? L – Physically or spiritually? G – Spiritually L – Peace, joy, love, patience, kindness . . . 🙂 The fruit of the spirit. G – Yes – but what else? L – (open my ears Lord) Rain? G – What kind of rain? L – Gentle rain – like a gentle spring rain … Read entire article »
