Soaking in the Grace

Christy Christopher — Sun, 02 Oct 2011 04:26:16 +0000

I saw you today. I saw the frustration coupled with the fear. I understood when you needed to say a few things to Me. I’m glad you came to Me. You didn’t go running to someone else, but knew that I was the only one that could help you. I have people praying for you. [...]

What is Happening?

Christy Christopher — Sun, 02 Oct 2011 04:25:34 +0000

Is life getting more difficult, or is it just me? Easier days seem to have evaporated in my life. There is no let up. There is no reprieve. Fiery trial after fiery trial. Flood after flood. I told the Lord this morning that it seems like I only come to Him when I need something, [...]

You Will Freak Hell When You Agree With God

So we’re not giving up. How could we! Even though on the outside it often looks like things are falling apart on us, on the inside, where God is making new life, not a day goes by without his unfolding grace. These hard times are small potatoes compared to the coming good times, the lavish [...]

Living In The Throne Room Of Grace

To forget those things which are behind can be a really steep order! Did you know that this word “forgetting” occurs one time in the King James Version? Some of us have had some pretty traumatic happenings in our lives. Here’s what the Hebrew word for forgetting means: to forget, neglecting, no longer caring for, [...]

It Will Come To You In My Embrace

Christy Christopher — Sun, 06 Feb 2011 21:02:09 +0000

You need to understand my dear one that I am surrounding you today. I am not only surrounding you but I am filling you as you are reaching out to Me. I am saturating your heart as you have asked. I am bestowing gifts of power, strength and comfort within your heart. Go ahead, open [...]

Are You Stuck Again?

Christy Christopher — Sat, 05 Feb 2011 15:16:58 +0000

Did you ever have one of those days? Maybe the day turned into days, weeks or even months and years? Times when you’re just caught or trapped. Places where you find yourself in need of rescue? Occasions when you just weren’t sure which end was up and you didn’t really even care? Or a time [...]

Excuse me, Granny Smith, May I see some ID please?

How many times have you read or heard this passage? For me, it’s too many to count, but recently, I have seen it in a different light. Yes, we must remain in Him in order to produce the fruit of the spirit, but it works both ways. We must remain grafted into Him as the [...]

Now hold still, this won’t hurt a bit…

Kathryn Bowden — Sat, 05 Feb 2011 14:23:56 +0000

My life is a busy one, happy, but busy. With so many rambunctious boys in the house we are well acquainted with accidents of many kinds. Rarely does a day go by that something doesn’t get broken, or cracked, dirtied, tainted, or bloodied. It’s usually the last one that concerns me the most. As long [...]

A Powder Keg Heart

Christy Christopher — Thu, 20 Jan 2011 02:19:56 +0000

Be resolute! Grow firm! Strengthen yourself! Prevail! Not only for your sake, but for the sake of those all around you who have been placed near! You have need to gather yourself in this earthly war. You have reason to remain strong! Even though the battle is near, the victory has already been accomplished. The [...]

His Plan For You Today!

Christy Christopher — Thu, 20 Jan 2011 02:08:23 +0000

Each day I have things for you to do, people for you to touch and places I want you to go. Each day there is purpose for you to be alive and reason for the breath that keeps coming from you. Every day I have mercy for you to bathe in as you walk and [...]

Does this algae make me look fat?

Kathryn Bowden — Thu, 20 Jan 2011 01:57:11 +0000

I have a lake. Some would call it a pond, but, it is, in fact, a lake. It’s my lake. I don’t own it, it’s not on my property, I can’t even see it from my house. That matters not, it is still my lake. I pass it on my way into town. It’s surrounded [...]

Onward Ho!

Christy Christopher — Tue, 04 Jan 2011 20:58:19 +0000

To go through a thing…I mean go through it, is how I will grow. My faith will never become stronger if I have no reason to trust harder. But to get through a thing and to really get on the other side of it, is the vehicle for growth and fresh places of wisdom. God [...]
