As I reflect on the circumstances that attempt to steal my peace this season, I’m reminded to turn my eyes upon Jesus and look full in His wonderful face. Nothing and no one has the power to take away what He has promised.

The Be-Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Be Hopeful
Like biblical and historic figures, we are on a journey. Without hope, we would be lost.
A Tribute to My Mom
I said a final see you later to my mom last Saturday. These are only a few thoughts about her life and legacy. She was an amazing woman of faith. I am blessed to have called her mom.
The Be Attitudes of the Christian Walk – Be Filled
What I really needed was to allow the Lord to fill me with joy, hope, peace and the power of the Holy Spirit. But how can we do that when we are too spent to even acknowledge our depletion?
The Be-Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Be Faithful
It was at Calvary—our true Redemption Rock—that the ultimate ransom was paid, once and for all. His faithfulness carried Him to the cross; now, our daily challenge is to live faithfully in response to the One who created and redeemed us.
The Be-Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Be Comforted
He let me have my say, and then reminded me that He too offers comfort that is rejected out of hand. He wants to provide for us and give us life abundantly – and yet we (the collective we) run to friends, food, shopping, exercise, or chocolate (or as I did yesterday my Matcha Frap from Starbucks) to give us that comfort.
Explore how the God of all comfort meets us in our brokenness with Scripture, grace, and healing. A personal devotional on finding comfort in Christ when nothing else soothes the soul
The Be-Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Be Free
While we celebrate the freedom we have in our country this week, let us not forget that our true freedom comes in knowing that this life is a only a bump in the road compared to eternity, and our physical address has “Temporary Home” stamped on the mailbox. Heaven is our home. It is where we will find perfect and eternal freedom. When we are with the Lord, our souls will no longer have an un-quenched longing for freedom and independence. We will finally be free, free at last.
The Be-Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Be Gentle
Imagine the impact of gentleness today—in our churches, in our families, on the freeway, in grocery store aisles, across social media, in politics, and especially in our own hearts.
The Be-Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Be Humble
God equips each of us differently. Some may lead. Some serve by praying. Others clean and care for the physical needs of the church. But we ALL serve and must humbly accept the work He has created us to do.
The Be-Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Be Hungry: Craving Righteousness in a Spiritually Starving World
God’s Word is the best restaurant to fill our hungry souls. Drinking from the Living Water helps us stop thirsting after what the world offers.
The Seven Sayings of Jesus on the Cross: A Devotional Reflection
Even in His suffering, Jesus extends mercy and promises eternal life—a reminder of the power and efficacy of the blood of the Lamb.
The Be-Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Be Courageous
Whether He calls us to speak up or remain silent, courage isn’t the absence of fear. It’s the presence of faith—knowing the Lord goes before us, stands behind us, and surrounds us on every side.
The Be-Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Be Light
This world can feel like a fierce and stormy sea. Fear, confusion, pain, and division often rule and seem to be the only things visible to a lost world. But God has placed His people like beacons along the shore to burn brightly – to guide the lost to a new home, warn of danger, and offer comfort.
The Be-Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Behold the Lamb
“Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!” John 1:29 Imagine Abraham and Isaac climbing the mountain to build an altar and offer a sacrifice. They had the wood, fire, and tools—but no lamb. When Isaac questioned the absence of a lamb, Abraham answered with faith: “God will provide.” (Genesis 22) GodContinue reading “The Be-Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Behold the Lamb”
The Be-Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Be Vigilant
That night in Yosemite reminded me of how the enemy operates. The devil, like a roaring lion, seeks to devour us. He wants to scare us, rob us of our precious resources, and teach his disciples how to do the same. We can never let down our guard. We must always be vigilant, guarding our hearts and minds, lest the predator make us his prey.
The Be- Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Be Transformed
I love spring. The rains wash the world and clease the air. New life is all around me. The bright yellow and black oriole returns to my yard, and the worship songs of the sparrows chase away the darkness of winter storms.
The Be-Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Be Prayerful
God knows our needs before we voice them. But He still appreciates a gracious appeal for those needs and a heart of gratitude when we recognize He is the one providing.
The Be Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Be Forgiven
Friends, we do not have to carry a knapsack full of guilt around with us. We can lay our burden at the foot of the cross and NEVER pick it up again. We are told that our Father has removed our sins from us as far as the east is from the west. And the east never meets the west!
The Be Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Be Saved
Being saved is not just fire insurance. It is not just about getting to Heaven and eternal life. That is just the final result. He came to give us life, life more abundant.
Our Be Attitudes

I am working on updating my website… a monumental task, and I have begun working on a novel that I am so excited to share with you soon. God’s Word has a plethora of instructions forContinue reading “Our Be Attitudes”
