a spiritual chasm

July 8, 2016April 14, 2020 Ellen Lebsock

Today the USA and the world is torn apart with violence and chaos...today in our quiet time we read the following from Charles Swindoll. I urge you to prayerfully read and consider the text and if you're moved to agree, take steps to become someone who is willing to make a difference. "What can I… Continue reading a spiritual chasm

love you…

June 24, 2016April 14, 2020 Ellen Lebsock

Love never gives up. Love cares more for others than for self. Love doesn’t want what it doesn’t have. Love doesn’t strut, Doesn’t have a swelled head, Doesn’t force itself on others, Isn’t always “me first,” Doesn’t fly off the handle, Doesn’t keep score of the sins of others, Doesn’t revel when others grovel, Takes… Continue reading love you…

moving?

March 17, 2016February 28, 2020 Ellen Lebsock

So Israel set out with all his possessions, and came to Beer-sheba, and offered sacrifices there to the God of his father, Isaac. During the night God spoke to him in a vision.“Jacob! Jacob!” he called.“Yes?” Jacob answered.“I am God,” the voice replied, “the God of your father. Don’t be afraid to go down to… Continue reading moving?

God where you are

February 24, 2016 Ellen Lebsock

Dick read this post from his email during our daily quite time today. It speaks to me! So I'm sharing it here, with you, for me... With you, because it may speak to your spirit, too. For me, because I want to be able to find it, read it, again—and a bookmark goes away after… Continue reading God where you are

love never gives up

July 12, 2015April 11, 2020 Ellen Lebsock

If I speak with human eloquence and angelic ecstasy but don’t love, I’m nothing but the creaking of a rusty gate.If I speak God’s Word with power, revealing all his mysteries and making everything plain as day, and if I have faith that says to a mountain, “Jump,” and it jumps, but I don’t love,… Continue reading love never gives up

shout grace, grace

July 6, 2015January 12, 2022 Ellen Lebsock

Today I will not allow the enemy of my soul to make a big mountain out of a molehill. Instead I'll say, by the Spirit of the God-of-the-Angel-Armies, "who do you think you are?"  Today, I'll shout, "Grace. Grace, to it." and without trying to force my way through, God will flatten my molehills. Then… Continue reading shout grace, grace
