And The Lord Says…

by Cheryl · In: Blog, Transformation · on Apr 15, 2013

I awaken in the middle of the night, fear-struck and wondering, “How will I finish this task when it’s so much bigger than I am?” And the Lord says, “Nothing is bigger than I AM.” Hovering close, His feathery Spirit slips truth into my worry-weighted one. In healing waves, He pours Himself, freely.  So what can I do but freely receive… [box] My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness. 2 Corinthians 12:9[/box] Lord, it’s a battle, this worry habit.  After so many years of practice, I wonder if I’m too good at it. “Practice letting …

Good Morning Thinking

by Cheryl · In: Blog, Encouragement · on May 30, 2012

I wake up early.  Too early I think.  My brain’s still trying to unravel my dream, separate the uglies from reality.  No, my husband doesn’t have a problem with that any more.  And yes, he still loves me.  But ok, I’ll say a quick prayer for his strengthening. I watch him under the glow of the digital clock, his chest rising and falling, his snores gentle for once.  Why am I awake?

Tired of Liking Worry?

by Cheryl · In: Blog, Transformation · on Sep 29, 2010

Are we that controlling, untrusting and forgetful? Can be.  I admit I am sometimes.  Even today.  In my down, unguarded moments. A friend of worry. Sorry, Lord.  I choose to trust you today.  Here I am.  Remembering who You are. Abba, Daddy, Doctor, Counselor, teacher, eternal best friend… Do you hear me, God?  I said I’m tired of worry. I know you hate it too …

Corrie ten Boom

De-stressing

by Cheryl · In: Blog, Quotes, Transformation · on May 12, 2010

If anyone had reason to worry or panic it was holocaust survivor, Corrie ten Boom; but she held her peace because she needed it to face her impossible challenges. So do we. Life is hard, time is short, people need us.  We need peace. Worry’s tough to kick because it clings under the pretense that it’s actually doing something (other than leaching our strength.) People spend big bucks on stress management, but Jesus gives us the keys: Be eternity-minded. Adjust your perception to match Mine.  “Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me… My yoke is easy, and My …
