Ministry

I have nothing to offer you today, because I hurt.  I can’t encourage you or equip you or even inspire you to draw closer to the Lord because my spirit has been crushed.  I know I should be writing my final post in my single’s series, but I can’t because I’m just empty inside. As…

I’ve been in full-time ministry for many, many years now. Ministry to my husband. Ministry to my children. Ministry within my home and outside of my home.

The Liebster Award?? The other day I received this sweet comment  from Piper over at Mercy Saved Me. I received this award a few days ago and I thought of you when I finally sat down to post about it, now I am paying it forward by awarding it to you!! You have blessed me!! …

Today I am writing and linking-up for the Blog Bash Party over at Women Living Well.  Courtney has asked for us bloggers to give her and her community a little information about us and what type of blogger we are, where we blog from, and what’s the inspiration behind our blog. So here are my…

“I feel like I am about to perform on the stage of America’s Got Talent, yet, I have no talent.”  Those were the words that I said to my husband this morning as we drove to church. Let me explain what happened. Yesterday I sent an email to a fellow blogger, stating, “If the Lord…

“And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.”  Ephesians 4:11,12 Isn’t it nice to be needed?  To feel appreciated.  To use your talents, skills and spiritual gifts. …
