Walking In The Safe Way (Thankfulness Series Part 3)

 Let's use these last few days of November to remember who He is, living consistently with hearts of thankfulness for His faithful promise of everlasting life. 


If you have accepted Christ as your personal Savior, it is important to also remember who YOU are because of the power of His redeeming grace. 


 The birthstone of November is topaz. One of the qualities represented by this jewel is nobility. 




Nobility refers to possessing a title of honor, or receiving a hereditary title.


The world is filled with stumbling blocks that work to discourage our hearts and darken the light which leads to a sense of worthlessness and a perceived loss of identity. 


"Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth." (Ephesians 4:28)


The greatest weapon formed against us are the stumbling blocks that are so often thrown our way.


Don't allow stumbling blocks to inhabit your life, so that you don't become a stumbling block in someone else's path. May our hearts always be THANKFUL for His saving grace, and may we remember our identity in Christ. 


"Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother's way." (Romans 14:13)


We are not worthy of anything, but He is worthy of so much praise!


If you have never accepted Christ as your Savior, there is hope in the midst of darkness. Don't let those stumbling blocks steal a chance for you to posess a new identity in Christ. You are infinitely precious in His sight. Let Him lead the way.


"Then shalt thou walk in thy way safely, & thy foot shall not stumble.” (Proverbs 3:23)

The Source of Everlasting Strength

"Life may try to weigh you down, but never let it wear you out." I love that the Lord placed that particular phrase on my heart while thinking about how certain circumstances in our lives can become truly overwhelming. I never enjoy shining a light on all that I face physically, but I will today because it fits well within the message.  Many of you may remember that I experienced COVID last September; as a result, I have dealt with lasting fatigue that carries no reasonable medical explanation, although I am absolutely certain that  living with both cerebral palsy and PCOS may play a significant role. It's now difficult to exert any amount of energy at all. Completing even the tiniest of tasks often feels the same as climbing Mount Everest. Some of those days it seems as if everything weighs me down and wears me out. (writing honestly) I know many who struggle with SO much more than I do. I know I'm never alone in that battle. Maybe you're experiencing one of thos...

Molly's Morning Thoughts: Are You Inviting Jesus In Or Shutting Him Out?

  A Word From Molly : I'm a little late on sharing a thought from yesterday morning but I couldn't go without giving it a place on the blog. I love that the Lord put this on my heart to write because it is SO true. I may turn this into a new blog segment, we shall see, but I hope this speaks to your heart as much as it did mine. Molly's Zone will celebrate its 10th birthday on Monday and I still feel so blessed to have the opportunity to write for Jesus. Molly's Zone has been a little quiet (life has been quite interesting lately) but I cannot wait to share more all throughout the month of September.  I woke up early this morning thinking about something that the Lord placed on my heart I LOVE podcasts & decided to try something new on Spotify the other day & listened to an episode about God's power in the midst of impossible situations and it got me wondering: How often are we guilty of attempting to take on a situation that is too much for us to handl...

Things To Remember When You Feel Like Quitting On God

Having the opportunity to serve the Lord through writing faith-based short stories and devotionals will forever be my greatest joy.  I have traveled along on the writing journey for about ten years now, yet it would be untruthful to tell you that I've never felt like quitting.  I know I have.  Have you ever felt that way? Are you in a season of distraction or discouragement?  The Lord placed this thought and those questions on my heart because I know that many others who remain faithful in serving the Lord in their own respective way are met with same opposition from Satan.  Sometimes it's difficult for you not to feel distracted and discouraged---as if the joy that you once held in your heart is somehow nowhere to be found. The good news is that while opposition will never go away on this side of Heaven, there are things to remember and tools that we can use to fight off those fiery darts and keep on keepin' on! (One of my all time favorite phrases) Today, I wa...
