Wow, I really didn’t think this was going to be today’s topic. But, there I go thinking and planning again. I seem to be in this season of “sit down and shut up and listen”. Ever have one of those? We had a fellowship gathering with 3-4 other churches in our area today, it was … Read more
Perspective: a way of regarding situations, facts, etc, and judging their relative importance. Have you ever got bad news? How did you handle it? I have to admit, not the best day for Ms. Diana. I don’t want to go into to many details, but lets just say for the moment I’m unsettled. Things are … Read more

Ever hear those accusing voices in you head? Here is how to shut them up!
by Downhere
Lay down your weapons
Lay down your violence
Lay down rebellion
Your heart of defiance
Love will ask of you more than truces
If you’re willing to lose
Blessing far outweighs the loss when you lay it all
On the Altar of Love
Lay down your idols
Lay down your possessions
Lay down your shrines and
Your worldly obsessions
Love will ask of you more than treasure
When you’re willing to trust
Blessing far outweighs the loss when you lay it all
You lay it all on the Altar of Love
In the holiest room
Where the curtain was torn
By the ultimate wound
Oh, the Altar of Love
Where the glory resides
For the Father and Son
And the Spirit invite
Oh, the Altar of Love
To its form we are blind
But you know when it’s there
Like the sun through shut eyes
Oh, the Altar of Love
Yes, you come here to die
But you know that it’s good
Cuz you come out alive
Love will ask of you more than you can give
When you’re willing to live
Blessing far outweighs the loss when you lay it all
On the Altar of Love

Daily Prompt: Tell us about a time you did a 180 — changed your views on something, reversed a decision, or acted in a way you ordinarily don’t. It’s funny how God can turn things around. The other morning my husband said this to me, “For someone who used to be stalked, you sure do … Read more
The Savior Within You He’s the Savior with you, His Spirit – your guide. He will open your eyes now, His light you will see. The bars that you see in the cell of your mind, don’t exist in the world of God’s Precious Son. * Open your eyes to the great mystery, for He … Read more
